Intended Use
The BD GeneOhm™ StaphSR Assay is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic test for the rapid detection of Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) directly from positive blood culture. The assay utilizes polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the amplification of specific targets and fluorogenic target-specific hybridization probes for the real-time detection of the amplified DNA. The assay is performed on Gram positive cocci, identified by Gram stain, from positive blood cultures. The BD GeneOhm™ StaphSR Assay is not intended to monitor treatment for MRSA/SA infections. Subculturing of positive blood cultures is necessary for further susceptibility testing.
Device Description
The BD GeneOhm™ StaphSR Assay is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic test for the rapid detection of Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) directly from positive blood culture. The assay utilizes polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the amplification of specific targets and fluorogenic target-specific hybridization probes for the real-time detection of the amplified DNA. The assay is performed on Gram positive cocci, identified by Gram stain, from positive blood cultures. To test a positive blood culture, an aliquot of the culture media is transferred into a sample buffer tube and lysed. Following specimen lysis, amplification of the targets (MRSA: a S. aureus specific target and a sequence near the insertion site of the Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome mec (SCCmec); SA: another S. aureus specific sequence] occurs in the presence of either or both targets. Amplification of the IC, a DNA fragment of 335-bp including a 277-bp sequence not found in S. aureus or MRSA, also takes place unless PCR inhibitory substances are present. The amplified DNA targets are detected with molecular beacon probes, hairpin-forming single-stranded oligonucleotides labelled at one end with a quencher and at the other end with a fluorescent reporter dye (fluorophore). In the absence of target, the fluorescence is quenched. In the presence of target, the hairpin structure opens upon beacon/target hybridization, resulting in emission of fluorescence. For the detection of MRSA amplicon, the molecular beacon probe contains the fluorophore FAM at the 5' end and the non-fluorescent quencher moiety DABCYL at the opposite end of the oligonucleotide. For the detection of S. aureus amplicon, the molecular beacon probe is labelled with the fluorophore TexasRed at the 5' end and the quencher DABCYL at the 3' end. For the detection of the IC amplicon, the molecular beacon probe contains the fluorophore TET at the 5' end and the quencher DABCYL at the 3' end, Each beacon-target hybrid fluoresces at a wavelength characteristic of the fluorophore used in the particular molecular beacon probe. The amount of fluorescence at any given cycle, or following cycling, depends on the amount of specific amplicon present at that time. The SmartCycler software simultaneously monitors the fluorescence emitted by each beacon probe, interprets all data, and provides a final result at the end of the cycling program.

Not Found

No
The device description details a PCR-based assay with fluorescence detection and software for data interpretation, but there is no mention of AI or ML algorithms being used in the analysis or interpretation process.

No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic test for detecting specific bacteria, not a device used for therapy or treatment. The intended use states it is "not intended to monitor treatment for MRSA/SA infections."

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states "The BD GeneOhm™ StaphSR Assay is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic test for the rapid detection of Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)..."

No

The device description clearly outlines a complex in vitro diagnostic test involving chemical reagents (probes, buffers), biological processes (PCR amplification), and likely requires specialized hardware (e.g., a thermocycler and fluorescence detector) to perform the assay and detect the results. While software is mentioned for monitoring and interpreting data ("The SmartCycler software simultaneously monitors the fluorescence emitted by each beacon probe, interprets all data, and provides a final result"), it is an integral part of a larger hardware/reagent system, not a standalone software-only device.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states: "The BD GeneOhm™ StaphSR Assay is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic test for the rapid detection of Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) directly from positive blood culture."

Test Description:

To test a positive blood culture, an aliquot of the culture media is transferred into a sample buffer tube and lysed. Following specimen lysis, amplification of the targets (MRSA: a S. aureus specific target and a sequence near the insertion site of the Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome mec (SCCmec); SA: another S. aureus specific sequence] occurs in the presence of either or both targets. Amplification of the IC, a DNA fragment of 335-bp including a 277-bp sequence not found in S. aureus or MRSA, also takes place unless PCR inhibitory substances are present.

The amplified DNA targets are detected with molecular beacon probes, hairpin-forming singlestranded oligonucleotides labelled at one end with a quencher and at the other end with a fluorescent reporter dye (fluorophore). In the absence of target, the fluorescence is quenched. In the presence of target, the hairpin structure opens upon beacon/target hybridization, resulting in emission of fluorescence. For the detection of MRSA amplicon, the molecular beacon probe contains the fluorophore FAM at the 5' end and the non-fluorescent quencher moiety DABCYL at the opposite end of the oligonucleotide. For the detection of S. aureus amplicon, the molecular beacon probe is labelled with the fluorophore TexasRed at the 5' end and the quencher DABCYL at the 3' end. For the detection of the IC amplicon, the molecular beacon probe contains the fluorophore TET at the 5' end and the quencher DABCYL at the 3' end, Each beacon-target hybrid fluoresces at a wavelength characteristic of the fluorophore used in the particular molecular beacon probe. The amount of fluorescence at any given cycle, or following cycling, depends on the amount of specific amplicon present at that time. The SmartCycler software simultaneously monitors the fluorescence emitted by each beacon probe, interprets all data, and provides a final result at the end of the cycling program.

Substantial Equivalence:

The BD Diagnostics BD GeneOhm™ StaphSR Assay is substantially equivalent in technology to the currently marketed GeneOhm Sciences Canada BD GeneOhm™ MRSA Assay (K042357). The BD GeneOhm™ StaphSR Assay contains additional primers and molecular beacon probes to detect Staphylococcus aureus.

The GeneOhm BD GeneOhm™ StaphSR Assay is substantially equivalent in performance to the Remel Staphaurex Latex Agglutination Test (K851949) for detection of Staphylococcus aureus; the culture medium BBL (BD) Oxacillin Screen Agar (K863821) for detection of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus; and the BD Phoenix Automated ID/AST System (K020322, K023301) for detection of both Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. These methods were used as the reference methods in the clinical trials.

Clinical trials were performed at five sites to evaluate the performance of the BD GeneOhm™ StaphSR Assay. The results are summarized in Tables 1-5:

Subculturing of positive blood cultures is necessary for further susceptibility testing.
