Intended Use
The BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System is intended for the rapid identification and in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing of isolates from pure culture of most aerobic and facultative anaerobic Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria of human origin. The BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System is intended for in vitro quantitative determination of antimicrobial susceptibility by minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of most aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria isolates from pure culture for Gram-negative aerobic and Non-Enteriaceae and most Gram-positive bacteria isolates from pure Enterococcionains to the genera Staphylococcus and Enterococcus. This premarket notification is for the addition of the antimicrobial agent cefoxitin at concentrations of 1-32 µg/mL to Gram Positive ID/AST or AST only Phoenix panels. It will also be used as a test to detect methicillin/oxacillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus in these panels. Cefoxitin has been shown to product in vitro against most strains of microorganisms listed below, as described in the FDA-approved package insert for this antimicrobial agent. Active In Vitro and in Clinical Infections Against: Staphylococcus aureus® (including penicillinase-producing strains) Staphylococcus epidermidisª a Staphylococci resistant to methicillin/oxacillin should be considered resistant to cefoxitin.
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 containing dried reagents: 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).

No
The description focuses on automated biochemical and growth-based methods for identification and susceptibility testing, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data interpretation or prediction.

No.
The device is used for in vitro diagnostic testing (identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing of bacterial isolates), not for direct treatment or diagnosis of disease in a living patient.

Yes

The device is intended for the rapid identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing of bacterial isolates, providing information on whether the bacteria are sensitive, intermediate, or resistant to various antimicrobial agents. This information is crucial for diagnosing infections and guiding treatment decisions.

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 Gram-positive 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 instruments to provide diagnostic information (identification and susceptibility to antimicrobial agents).
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies described (Site Reproducibility and Clinical Studies) are typical evaluations conducted for IVD devices to demonstrate their accuracy and reliability in a laboratory setting.
  • Predicate Device(s): The listed predicate devices (VITEK® System and previous BD Phoenix™ systems) are also known IVD devices used for similar purposes.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System is clearly an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Study Type: Substantial Equivalence Studies
The BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System demonstrated substantially equivalent performance when compared with the CLSI reference broth microdilution method. This premarket notification provides data supporting the use of the BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System Gram positive ID/AST or AST only Phoenix panels with this antimicrobial agent.

The BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System has demonstrated substantially equivalent performance when compared to the CLSI reference broth microdilution method (AST panels prepared according to NCCLS M7). The system has been evaluated as defined in the FDA Draft guidance document, "Guidance on Review Criteria for Assessment of Antimicrobial Susceptibility Devices", March 8, 2000.

Site Reproducibility:
Intra- and inter-site reproducibility of this antimicrobial agent in the BD Phoenix System was evaluated at three sites using a pancl 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.

Key Results: The results of the study demonstrate for the this antimicrobial agent there was 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 to demonstrate the performance of the Phoenix antimicrobial susceptibility test with the Gram Positive Phoenix Panel format containing this antimicrobial agent. 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 CLSI reference broth microdilution method.

Assessment: The performance of the Phoenix System was assessed by calculating the Essential Agreement (EA) and Category Agreement (CA), and comparing these to expected/reference results for all isolates tested. 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).

Accuracy: Table 1 summarizes the performance for the isolates tested in this study. The table is not properly formatted and does not specifically provide values for accuracy.

Reproducibility: Testing performed at multiple clinical sites demonstrated >95% reproducibility or greater within ± 1 dilution.

Conclusion: The data collected from the substantial equivalence studies demonstrate that testing on the BD Phocnix™ Automated Microbiology System with this antimicrobial agent is substantially equivalent as outlined in the FDA draft guidance document, "Guidance on Review Criteria for Assessment of Antimicrobial Susceptibility Devices", March 8, 2000.
