Device Description
VIDAS® C. difficile Toxin A & B (CDAB) assay is an automated test for use on the VIDAS instruments for the qualitative detection of Clostridium difficile toxin A and toxin B in stool specimens using the ELFA technique (Enzyme-Linked Fluorescent Assay). The assay principle combines a two-step enzyme immunoassay sandwich method with a final fluorescent detection (ELFA). The Solid Phase Receptacle (SPR), a pipette tip-like device, serves as the solid phase as well as the pipetting device for the assay. The assay reagents are ready-to-use and pre-dispensed in the sealed reagent strips (STRs). Each of the four reaction steps are performed automatically by the VIDAS instrument. The reaction medium (sample/conjugate mixture) is cycled in and out of the SPR several times. Each step is followed by a wash cycle which eliminates unbound components. At the end of the VIDAS CDAB assay, results are automatically calculated by the VIDAS instrument. A test value as well as the qualitative result (positive, negative or equivocal) are provided on the result sheet for each sample.

No
The description details a standard automated immunoassay using ELFA technique. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any computational methods beyond automated calculation of results based on pre-defined thresholds.

No.
This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) device used for the qualitative detection of Clostridium difficile toxins in stool specimens, which aids in diagnosis, but does not directly provide therapy or treatment.

Yes

The device is an automated test for the qualitative detection of Clostridium difficile toxin A and toxin B in stool specimens, providing results like "positive," "negative," or "equivocal," which are used to aid in the diagnosis of C. difficile infection.

No

The device description explicitly mentions hardware components like the VIDAS instruments, Solid Phase Receptacle (SPR), and reagent strips (STRs), which are integral to the assay's function.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "qualitative detection of Clostridium difficile toxin A and toxin B in stool specimens." This is a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample (stool) outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description: The description details an "automated test" using an "ELFA technique" and "reagents" to analyze a "sample" (stool). This aligns with the definition of an in vitro diagnostic device.
  • Anatomical Site: The test is performed on "Stool specimens," which are biological samples.
  • Performance Studies: The document includes performance studies comparing the device to a "Predicate Device," which is common for IVD submissions to regulatory bodies.

All of these points strongly indicate that the VIDAS® C. difficile Toxin A & B (CDAB) assay is an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description

VIDAS® C. difficile Toxin A & B (CDAB) assay is an automated test for use on the VIDAS instruments for the qualitative detection of Clostridium difficile toxin A and toxin B in stool specimens using the ELFA technique (Enzyme-Linked Fluorescent Assay).

The assay principle combines a two-step enzyme immunoassay sandwich method with a final fluorescent detection (ELFA). The Solid Phase Receptacle (SPR), a pipette tip-like device, serves as the solid phase as well as the pipetting device for the assay. The assay reagents are ready-to-use and pre-dispensed in the sealed reagent strips (STRs). The individual kit components are described in detail on the following pages.

Each of the four reaction steps are performed automatically by the VIDAS instrument. The reaction medium (sample/conjugate mixture) is cycled in and out of the SPR several times. Each step is followed by a wash cycle which eliminates unbound components.

  • Step 1: Toxin A and/or toxin B present in the sample binds with the anti-toxin A antibodies (rabbit polyclonal) and anti-toxin B antibodies (mouse monoclonal) coated on the interior wall of the SPR.
  • Binding between toxin A and anti-toxin A antibodies (mouse monoclonal) conjugated Step 2: with biotin. Binding between toxin B and anti-toxin B antibodies (mouse monoclonal) conjugated with biotin.
  • The presence of biotin is detected by incubation with streptavidin conjugated with Step 3: alkaline phosphatase.
  • Alkaline phosphatase catalyzes the hydrolysis of the substrate (4-Methyl-umbellifery) Step 4: phosphate) into a fluorescent product (4-Methyl-umbelifferone) the fluorescence of which is measured at 450 nm. The intensity of the fluorescence is proportional to the quantity of toxin A and/or toxin B present in the sample.

At the end of the VIDAS CDAB assay, results are automatically calculated by the VIDAS instrument. A test value as well as the qualitative result (positive, negative or equivocal) are provided on the result sheet for each sample.
