Intended Use
VITEK® 2 Streptococcus Tetracycline is designed for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Streptococcus species. VITEK 2 Streptococcus Tetracycline is a quantitative test intended for use with the VITEK® 2 and VITEK® 2 Compact Systems as a laboratory aid in the determination of in vitro susceptibility to antimicrobial agents. Tetracycline has an antimicrobial activity against the microorganisms listed below, according to the FDA label for this antimicrobial. Active in vitro and in clinical infections Streptococcus pneumoniae Streptococcus pyogenes Viridans group streptococci The VITEK® 2 Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test (AST) is intended to be used with the VITEK® 2 System for the automated quantitative or qualitative susceptibility testing of isolated colonies for the most clinically significant aerobic gram-negative bacilli, Staphylococcus spp., Enterococcus spp., Streptococcus spp. and clinically significant yeast.
Device Description
The VITEK® 2 AST cards are essentially miniaturized versions of the doubling dilution technique for determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) microdilution methodology. The isolate to be tested is diluted to a standardized concentration with 0.45% to 0.50% saline before being used to rehydrate the antimicrobial medium within the card. The VITEK® 2 automatically fills, seals and places the card into the incubator/reader. The VITEK® 2 Compact has a manual filling. sealing and loading operation. The VITEK 2 Systems monitor the growth of each well in the card over a defined period of time (up to 36 hours for yeast). At the completion of the incubation cycle, a report is generated that contains the MIC value along with the interpretive category result for each antimicrobial contained on the card.
More Information

No
The description focuses on a miniaturized dilution technique and automated monitoring of microbial growth, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for analysis or interpretation.

No
This device is a laboratory aid for determining the in vitro susceptibility of Streptococcus species to antimicrobial agents, not a device used to provide therapy to a patient.

Yes
The device is described as a "laboratory aid in the determination of in vitro susceptibility to antimicrobial agents" and is used for "antimicrobial susceptibility testing," which is a diagnostic process to determine the effectiveness of antibiotics against specific microorganisms.

No

The device description explicitly details hardware components (VITEK® 2 AST cards, VITEK® 2 and VITEK® 2 Compact Systems) and their physical processes (filling, sealing, incubation, monitoring growth). While software is involved in generating the report, the core functionality relies on physical hardware and biological processes.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it is a "laboratory aid in the determination of in vitro susceptibility to antimicrobial agents." "In vitro" means "in glass" or "in the lab," referring to tests performed outside of a living organism.
  • Device Description: The description details how the device tests isolated colonies of microorganisms in a laboratory setting using a miniaturized microdilution methodology.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies compare the device's results to a "CLSI broth microdilution reference method," which is a standard laboratory technique for determining antimicrobial susceptibility.
  • Intended User: The intended user is a "laboratory aid," further indicating its use in a clinical laboratory setting.

All of these points align with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device, which is used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease. In this case, the device is testing the susceptibility of bacteria to antibiotics, which is crucial information for guiding treatment decisions.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol

An external evaluation was conducted with fresh and stock clinical isolates, as well as a set of challenge strains. The external evaluations were designed to confirm the acceptability of VITEK® 2 Streptococus Tetracycline by comparing its performance with the CLSI broth microditution reference method. The data is representative of performance on both the VITEK® 2 and VITEK® 2 Compact instrument platforms.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

VITEK® 2 Streptococcus Tetracycline demonstrated substantially equivalent performance when compared with the CLSI broth microdilution reference method, as defined in the FDA Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test (AST) Systems; Guidance for Industry and FDA. Issued August 28, 2009.

VITEK® Streptococcus Tetracycline demonstrated acceptable performance of 96.8% overall essential agreement and 97.1% overall category agreement with the reference method. Reproducibility and Quality Control demonstrated acceptable results using both the VITEK® 2 and VITEK® 2 Compact instrument systems.
