Device Description

Pasco Panels are used for quantitatively measuring the susceptibility of rapidly growing aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacterial pathogens to a battery of antimicrobial agents and determining the biochemical identification of those organisms. Varying concentrations of antimicrobial agents (usually in two-fold dilutions) are dispensed into the Pasco microdilution panels and the panels are then frozen. Panels are thawed prior to use, inoculated with the test organisms, incubated the traditional 16-24 hours and panels are then observed for visible growth or color changes as described in the package insert. The lowest concentration of each antimicrobial agent with no apparent visible growth of the test organism is recorded as the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). Changes in pH and production of specific metabolites from growth in biochemical substrates are interpreted as described in the package insert for conventional tubed media.

AI/ML Overview

The information provided describes the acceptance criteria and the study conducted for the Pasco MIC and MIC/ID Panels with the addition of Gemifloxacin.

Here's the breakdown as requested:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Performance MetricAcceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
Essential Agreement (EA)Acceptable (e.g., >90-95%)99.7%
Major Errors (M)ZeroNo major errors observed
Very Major Errors (VM)ZeroNo very major errors observed
Category Agreement (CA)Acceptable (e.g., >90-95%)99.3%
Minor DiscrepanciesAcceptable; within EA5 random minor discrepancies (all within EA)
QC Endpoints (S. aureus ATCC 29213, E. faecalis ATCC 29212, E. coli ATCC 25922, P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853)AcceptableAcceptable
Inter-site Reproducibility (MIC results)Acceptable99.6%
Intra-site Reproducibility (MIC results)Acceptable100% (two sites), 99% (one site)

Note: The specific numerical acceptance criteria (e.g., a precise percentage for EA or CA) are not explicitly stated in the provided text. However, "acceptable" and the absence of major/very major errors imply that the reported performance met the pre-defined thresholds for regulatory approval.

2. Sample Sizes Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Sample Size (Test Set): 615 isolates (challenge and clinical Enterobacteriaceae and Acinetobacter sp.)
  • Data Provenance: The isolates included "challenge strains, fresh clinical isolates, stock clinical isolates and QC strains." The study was conducted at "three test sites." The text does not specify the country of origin but implies a multi-site clinical evaluation. It is a prospective or concurrent evaluation as it compares the Pasco methodology to a reference methodology.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

  • This information is not provided in the given text. The ground truth (reference methodology) is mentioned, but details about the experts involved in establishing it are absent.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • This information is not provided in the given text.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

  • No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not conducted as the device is an automated antimicrobial susceptibility test panel, not an interpretive imaging device requiring human readers.

6. Standalone Performance

  • Yes, a standalone (algorithm only) performance was done. The device's performance (Essential Agreement, Category Agreement, etc.) was directly compared against a reference methodology without human intervention in the interpretation of the core MIC values.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

  • The ground truth used was established by a "reference methodology". The text doesn't specify the exact nature of this reference methodology (e.g., specific manual dilution methods, another FDA-approved AST system, etc.), but it is implied to be a gold standard for antimicrobial susceptibility testing.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

  • This information is not provided in the given text. The document focuses on the validation of the device, not its development or training phase.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

  • This information is not provided in the given text, as details on the training set are absent.

510(k) SUMMARY (page 2 of 3)

substantial equivalency under this notification is not intended to have any bearing whatsoever on the resolution of patent infringement suits or any other patent matters. No statements related to, or in support of, substantial equivalence herein shall be construed as an admission against interest under the US Patent Laws or their application by the courts.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE:

Pasco Panels are used for quantitatively measuring the susceptibility of rapidly growing aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacterial pathogens to a battery of antimicrobial agents and determining the biochemical identification of those organisms. Varying concentrations of antimicrobial agents (usually in two-fold dilutions) are dispensed into the Pasco microdilution panels and the panels are then frozen. Panels are thawed prior to use, inoculated with the test organisms, incubated the traditional 16-24 hours and panels are then observed for visible growth or color changes as described in the package insert.

The lowest concentration of each antimicrobial agent with no apparent visible growth of the test organism is recorded as the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). Changes in pH and production of specific metabolites from growth in biochemical substrates are interpreted as described in the package insert for conventional tubed media.

INTENDED USE FOR THE PASCO MIC AND MIC/ID PANELS:

PASCO MIC AND MIC/ID PANELS are used for quantitatively measuring (with the exception of the Breakpoint/ID panel which provides qualitative measurement or category results) the susceptibility of rapidly growing aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacterial pathogens to a battery of antimicrobial agents and determining the biochemical identification of those organisms.

SUMMARY/CONCLUSION OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE TESTING: Challenge strains, fresh clinical isolates, stock clinical isolates and OC strains were tested concurrently using both Pasco methodology and reference methodology in panels that contained Gemifloxacin at concentrations ranging from 0.015 - 4 mcg/ml. Testing was conducted at three test sites.

Test results of 615 challenge and clinical Enterobacteriaceae and Acinetobacter spon demonstrated an Essential Agreement (EA) of 99.7%. No major (M) or very major (VM) errors were observed. Category Agreement (CA) was acceptable at 99.3% with 5 random minor discrepancies, all of which were within EA.
