The document describes a traditional broth dilution susceptibility test system and does not mention any AI or ML components.
No.
This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) antimicrobial susceptibility testing system, used to determine the effectiveness of antimicrobial agents against specific microorganisms, not directly treat a patient.
Yes
This device determines the quantitative and/or qualitative antimicrobial agent susceptibility of bacterial colonies, which provides information for diagnosing and treating infections. It performs "Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST)", a key diagnostic procedure.
No
The device is a physical panel with dried reagents used for antimicrobial susceptibility testing, which is then incubated and read by instrumentation. While software is likely involved in reading and interpreting the results from the instrumentation, the core device being submitted is a physical panel, not software only.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The device is used to determine the susceptibility of microorganisms (bacteria) to antimicrobial agents. This is a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body) on a sample (bacterial colonies).
- Device Description: It describes a system that uses miniaturized broth dilution tests to measure the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of antimicrobial agents against bacteria. This is a standard method for in vitro diagnostic testing in microbiology.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies compare the device's results to a "frozen Reference Panel," which is a common practice for validating in vitro diagnostic tests. The metric used, "Essential Agreement," is also a standard measure for evaluating the performance of AST (Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing) devices, which are a type of IVD.
- Predicate Device(s): The predicate devices listed are also MicroScan panels, which are known IVD products used for microbial identification and susceptibility testing.
The entire description points to a device designed to perform diagnostic tests on biological samples in a laboratory setting, which is the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
To determine antimicrobial agent susceptibility
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 enterococci and staphylococci. After inoculation, panels are incubated for 4.5 – 18 hours at 35℃ +/- 1℃, 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 tetracycline, at concentrations of 0.25 to 16 µg/ml (7-Dilution MIC Sequence), 0.5 – 8 µg/ml (5-Dilution BP Sequence), and 2 - 8 ug/ml (3-Dilution BP Dilution Sequence), for all Staphylococcus species and Enterococcus species to the test panel.
The Gram-positive organisms which may be used for tetracycline susceptibility testing in this panel are:
Staphylococcus aureus
Streptococcus faecalis (Enterococcus faecalis)

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 enterococci and 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, 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.

(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.”
