Intended Use
The Clearview® Exact PBP2a Test is a qualitative, in vitro immunochromatographic assay for the detection of penicillin-binding protein 2a (PBP2a) in isolates identified as Staphylococcus aureus, as an aid in detecting methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The Clearview® Exact PBP2a Test is not intended to diagnose MRSA nor to guide or monitor treatment for MRSA infections.
Device Description
The Clearview® Exact PBP2a Test is a rapid immunochromatographic membrane assay that uses highly sensitive monoclonal antibodies to detect the PBP2a protein directly from bacterial isolates. These antibodies and a control antibody are immobilized onto a nitrocellulose membrane as two distinct lines and combined with a sample pad, a blue conjugate pad, and an absorption pad to form a test strip. Isolates are sampled directly from the culture plate and eluted into an assay tube containing Reagent 1. Reagent 2 is then added and the dipstick is placed in the assay tube. Results are read visually at 5 minutes.
More Information

No
The device description details a rapid immunochromatographic assay with visual reading of results, and there is no mention of AI, ML, or image processing.

No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic test for detecting a specific protein in bacteria, which aids in identifying MRSA. Its intended use explicitly states it is "not intended to diagnose MRSA nor to guide or monitor treatment for MRSA infections," meaning it does not directly treat or prevent disease.

Yes

The device detects penicillin-binding protein 2a (PBP2a) in isolates to aid in detecting methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which is a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical test strip with immobilized antibodies, sample pads, and absorption pads, which are hardware components. The results are read visually, indicating a manual interpretation process, not a software-based analysis.

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

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states: "The Clearview® Exact PBP2a Test is a qualitative, in vitro immunochromatographic assay..."

The term "in vitro" directly indicates that the test is performed outside of a living organism, which is a defining characteristic of an In Vitro Diagnostic device. The description of the device and its use in detecting a protein from bacterial isolates further confirms its nature as an IVD.

A total of 457 S. aureus samples were evaluated in the Clearview® Exact PBP2a Test, compared to results of 30 ug cefoxitin disk diffusion and interpreted according to CLSI standards.

162 strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and 112 strains of methicillin-sensitive Staphylococus aureus (MSSA) were tested in the Clearview® Exact PBP2a Test with expected results. These bacterial strains were obtained from the Network on Antimicrobial Resistance in Staphylococcus aureus (NARSA), American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) and a collection of strains from Department of Infectious Disease Epidemiology of the Imperial College in London, England.

Summary of Performance Studies

Clinical Performance: A multicenter clinical study was conducted in 2009 at three geographically-diverse laboratories. A total of 457 S. aureus samples were evaluated in the Clearview® Exact PBP2a Test, compared to results of 30 ug cefoxitin disk diffusion and interpreted according to CLSI standards.
Analytical Reactivity and Specificity: 162 strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and 112 strains of methicillin-sensitive Staphylococus aureus (MSSA) were tested in the Clearview® Exact PBP2a Test with expected results.
Reproducibility Study: A study of the Clearview® Exact PBP2a Test was conducted at 3 separate sites using panels of blind coded specimens containing negative and positive samples. Participants tested each sample twice on 5 different days.

Key Results:
Clinical Performance (compared to Cefoxitin (30 ug) Disk Diffusion in S. aureus Isolates):

  • Tryptic Soy Agar with 5% sheep blood: Sensitivity 98.1% (206/210) (95% C.I. 95.2-99.3%), Specificity 98.8% (244/247) (95% C.I. 96.5-99.6%)
  • Columbia Agar with 5% sheep blood: Sensitivity 99.0% (208/210) (96.6-99.7%), Specificity 98.8% (244/247) (96.5-99.6%)
  • Mueller Hinton with 1 µg oxacillin induction: Sensitivity 99.5% (209/210) (97.4-99.9%), Specificity 98.8% (244/247) (96.5-99.6%)

Reproducibility Study: 97.3% (580/596) agreement with expected test results.

The Clearview® Exact PBP2a Test is not intended to diagnose MRSA nor to quide or monitor treatment for MRSA infections.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The Clearview® Exact PBP2a Test and the Oxoid PBP2' Latex Agglutination Test (K011710) utilize similar technologies to detect PBP2a in MRSA. Both tests use detection with latex conjugates sensitized with a monoclonal antibody against PBP2a.

The Remel Mueller Hinton Agar (K850291) utilizes a different technology involving microbial growth on Mueller Hinton Agar with 4% NaCl and 6 ug/mL Oxacillin.

Dear Ms. Vogel:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into class II (Special Controls), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of
