The description focuses on automated measurements and interpretation based on predefined criteria (redox indicator changes, turbidity, two-fold dilution concentrations) rather than adaptive learning or pattern recognition characteristic of AI/ML. The performance studies compare results to reference methods and expected results, not to a model's performance metrics.
No.
The device is used for identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing of bacterial isolates, which is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) purpose, not a direct therapeutic intervention for a patient.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the system is intended for "rapid identification and in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing of isolates from pure culture... of human origin." These actions—identifying pathogens and determining their susceptibility to antimicrobials—are crucial steps in diagnosing and guiding treatment for infections, making the device diagnostic.
No
The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as the "BD Phoenix instrument" and "BD Phoenix panels," in addition to the software.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the system is intended for "in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing of isolates from pure culture of most aerobic and facultative anaerobic gram-negative and grampositive bacteria of human origin" and "in vitro quantitative determination of antimicrobial susceptibility". The term "in vitro" is a key indicator of an IVD.
- Device Description: The description details a system that analyzes biological samples (bacterial isolates from pure culture) outside of the human body using reagents and a specialized instrument to provide diagnostic information (identification and susceptibility to antimicrobial agents).
- Performance Studies: The performance studies describe testing of isolates to demonstrate the accuracy and reliability of the system in determining antimicrobial susceptibility, which is a crucial aspect of an IVD used for guiding treatment decisions.
- Predicate Devices: The listed predicate devices are also automated microbiology systems used for identification and susceptibility testing, which are well-established categories of IVDs.
The entire context of the document describes a device designed to perform tests on biological samples in vitro to provide information relevant to the diagnosis and treatment of bacterial infections.

Device Description
The BD Phoenix Automated Microbiology System (Phoenix System) is an automated system for the rapid identification (ID) and antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) of clinically relevant bacterial isolates. The system includes the following components:
- BD Phoenix instrument and software.
- BD Phoenix panels containing biochemicals for organism ID testing and antimicrobial agents or AST determinations.
- BD Phoenix ID Broth used for performing ID tests and preparing AST Broth inoculum.
- BD Phoenix AST Broth used for performing AST tests only.
- BD Phoenix AST Indicator solution added to the AST broth to aid in bacterial growth determination.
The Phoenix panel is a sealed and self-inoculating molded polystyrene tray with 136 micro-wells containing dried reagents. Organisms for susceptibility testing must be a pure culture and preliminarily identified as a gram-negative or gram-positive isolate. For each isolate, an inoculation equivalent to a 0.5 McFarland standard is prepared in Phoenix ID broth.
The Phoenix AST method is a broth based microdilution test. The Phoenix system utilizes a redox indicator for the detection of organism growth in the presence of an antimicrobial agent. Measurements of changes to the indicator as well as bacterial turbidity are used in the determination of bacterial growth. Each AST panel configuration contains several antimicrobial agents with a wide range of two-fold doubling dilution concentrations.
The instrument houses the panels where they are continuously incubated at a nominal temperature of 35°C. The instrument takes readings of the panels every 20 minutes. The readings are interpreted to give an identification of the isolate, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values and category interpretations, S, I, or R (sensitive, intermediate, or resistant).

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Site Reproducibility: Intra- and inter-site reproducibility of this antimicrobial agent in the BD Phoenix System was evaluated at three sites using a panel of gram-positive isolates. Each site tested the isolates in triplicate on three different days using one lot of Gram Positive Phoenix panels containing this antimicrobial agent and associated reagents. The results showed an overall intra-site reproducibility of greater than 90% and an overall inter-site reproducibility greater than 95% for the gram-positive isolates tested.
Clinical Studies: Clinical, stock and challenge isolates were tested across multiple geographically diverse sites across the United States. Phoenix System results for Challenge set isolates were compared to the expected results. Phoenix System results for clinical isolates were compared to the results obtained from the NCCLS reference broth microdilution method. The performance was assessed by calculating Essential Agreement (EA) and Category Agreement (CA) to expected/reference results for all isolates tested.
Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)
Essential Agreement (EA) occurs when the BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System agrees exactly or within + one two-fold dilution to the reference result.
Category Agreement (CA) occurs when the BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System agrees with the reference method with respect to the FDA categorical interpretive criteria (susceptible, intermediate, and resistant).
