The document describes a standard antimicrobial susceptibility testing system based on broth dilution and optical reading, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No.
The device is used to determine the susceptibility of bacteria to antimicrobial agents, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one.
Yes
The device determines quantitative and/or qualitative antimicrobial agent susceptibility of bacterial colonies, which provides information on how effective antibiotics are against specific organisms. This information is used by healthcare professionals to guide treatment decisions for infections, thus serving a diagnostic purpose in identifying effective therapies.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical panel with dehydrated antimicrobial agents that are rehydrated and incubated. While instrumentation is used to read the results, the core of the device is a physical panel, not software.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The device is used to determine the antimicrobial susceptibility of bacterial colonies grown on solid media. This is a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body) on a biological sample (bacterial colonies).
- Device Description: It describes a system that performs miniaturized broth dilution susceptibility tests, which are standard methods for in vitro diagnostic testing of antimicrobial resistance.
- Performance Studies: The studies described involve comparing the device's performance to a reference method for determining antimicrobial susceptibility, which is typical for validating an IVD.
The entire purpose of the device is to provide diagnostic information about the susceptibility of bacteria to antimicrobial agents, which is a key characteristic of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The MicroScan® Synergies plus™ Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panel is used to determine quantitative and/or qualitative antimicrobial agent susceptibility of colonies grown on solid media of rapidly growing aerobic and facultative anaerobic gram-positive staphylococci and enterococci. After inoculation, panels are incubated for 4.5 - 18 hours at 35°C +/- 1°C, in a WalkAway® SI, or equivalent, and read by the MicroScan® Instrumentation. Additionally, the panels may be incubated in a non-CO2 incubator and the Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST) portions can be read visually, according to the Package Insert.
This particular submission is for the addition of the antimicrobial Erythromycin, at concentrations of 0.12 to 16 ug/ml, 0.5-4 ug/ml and 0.5-1, 4 ug/ml for Staphylococci, to the test panel.
The gram-positive organisms which may be used for Erythromycin susceptibility testing in this panel are:
Staphylococcus aureus

Device Description
MicroScan® Synergies plus™ Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panels, utilizing both the MicroScan® Rapid Fluorogenic Identification and Dried Overnight Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST) technologies, are designed for use in determining quantitative and/or qualitative antimicrobial agent susceptibility of colonies grown on solid media of rapidly growing aerobic and facultative anaerobic gram-positive staphylococci.
The antimicrobial susceptibility tests are miniaturizations of the broth dilution susceptibility test that have been diluted in water and dehydrated. Various antimicrobial agents are diluted in water, buffer, or minute concentrations of broth, to concentrations bridging the range of clinical interest. Panels are rehydrated with Synergies plus™ Pos Broth, after inoculation with a standardized suspension of the organism. After incubation in the WalkAway® SI, or equivalent, System, or equivalent, for 4.5 - 18 hours, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for the test organism is read by determining the lowest antimicrobial concentration showing inhibition of growth.

The external validation was conducted with fresh and stock Efficacy isolates and stock Challenge strains. The external validations were designed to confirm the acceptability of the proposed Synergies plus™ Gram-Positive Panel by comparing its performance with a frozen Reference panel. Challenge strains were compared to Expected Results determined prior to the evaluation.
Summary of Performance Studies
The proposed MicroScan® Synergies plus™ Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panel demonstrated substantially equivalent performance when compared with a frozen Reference Panel, as defined in the FDA document "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test (AST) Systems; Guidance for Industry and FDA", dated February 5, 2003.

(a)
Identification. A fully automated short-term incubation cycle antimicrobial susceptibility system is a device that incorporates concentrations of antimicrobial agents into a system for the purpose of determining in vitro susceptibility of bacterial pathogens isolated from clinical specimens. Test results obtained from short-term (less than 16 hours) incubation are used to determine the antimicrobial agent of choice to treat bacterial diseases.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is FDA's guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test (AST) Systems; Guidance for Industry and FDA.”
