Intended Use
The BD Veritor™ System for Rapid Detection of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a chromatographic immunoassay with an instrumented read for the direct and qualitative detection of RSV fusion protein from nasopharyngeal washes/aspirates and nasopharyngeal swabs in transport media from patients suspected of having a viral respiratory infection. This test is intended for in vitro diagnostic use to aid in the diagnosis of RSV infections in infants and pediatric patients under the age of 20 years. Negative results do not preclude RSV infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or for other management decisions. A negative test is presumptive. It is recommended that negative test results be confirmed by viral cell culture or an alternative method, such as a FDA-cleared molecular assay. The test is intended for professional and laboratory use. It is to be used in conjunction with the BD Veritor ™ System Reader.
Device Description
The BD RSV test is a chromatographic assay to qualitatively detect RSV fusion protein in samples processed from respiratory specimens. The processed specimen is added to the test device where RSV viral antigens bind to anti-RSV antibodies conjugated to detector particles on the RSV test strip. The antigen-conjugate complex migrates across the test strip to the reaction area and is captured by an antibody line on the membrane. Results are interpreted by the BD Veritor™ System Reader, a portable electronic device which uses a reflectance-based measurement method to evaluate the line signal intensities on the assay test strip, and applies specific algorithms to determine the presence or absence of any target analyte(s). A liquid crystal display (LCD) on the instrument communicates the results to the operator.
More Information

No
The device description mentions "specific algorithms" to determine the presence or absence of the target analyte, but there is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning/training process. The technology described is a reflectance-based measurement and algorithmic interpretation, which is not indicative of AI/ML.

No.
This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) test used to detect RSV fusion protein to aid in the diagnosis of RSV infections, not to treat or prevent a disease.

Yes

The intended use explicitly states this test is "intended for in vitro diagnostic use to aid in the diagnosis of RSV infections."

No

The device description explicitly states it includes a "portable electronic device which uses a reflectance-based measurement method" and an "LCD on the instrument," indicating it is a hardware device with embedded software, not a software-only medical device.

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

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states: "This test is intended for in vitro diagnostic use to aid in the diagnosis of RSV infections in infants and pediatric patients under the age of 20 years."

This statement clearly indicates that the device is designed to be used outside of the body (in vitro) to diagnose a medical condition (RSV infection).

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

Clinical Studies: Performance characteristics for the BD Veritor System for Rapid Detection of RSV test were established in multi-center clinical studies conducted at five U.S. trial sites during the 2011-2012 respiratory season. A total of 1174 prospectively collected specimens received in the laboratory with an order for respiratory virus testing were enrolled in the study. After exclusions, a total of 1146 specimens were evaluated using the BD Veritor System for Rapid Detection of RSV test and viral cell culture. The prospective specimens consisted of 440 Nasopharyngeal Wash /Aspirates (NPWA) and 706 nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) in transport media from symptomatic patients.
The performance of the BD Veritor System for Rapid Detection of RSV test was compared to an FDA cleared D3 Duet™ DFA on R-Mix cell culture.

Reproducibility: The reproducibility of the BD Veritor System for Rapid Detection of RSV test was evaluated at three clinical laboratory sites. The reproducibility panel was composed of 12 simulated RSV samples, including moderate positive, low positive (near LOD), high negative (very low concentrations of virus), and negative samples. The panel was tested by two operators at each site for five consecutive days.

(a)
Identification. Respiratory syncytial virus serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies to respiratory syncytial virus in serum. Additionally, some of these reagents consist of respiratory syncytial virus antisera conjugated with a fluorescent dye (immunofluorescent reagents) and used to identify respiratory syncytial viruses from clinical specimens or from tissue culture isolates derived from clinical specimens. The identification aids in the diagnosis of respiratory syncytial virus infections and provides epidemiological information on diseases caused by these viruses. Respiratory syncytial viruses cause a number of respiratory tract infections, including the common cold, pharyngitis, and infantile bronchopneumonia.(b)

Media Compatibility

Different types of transport media commonly used for the preservation and transport of respiratory specimens were evaluated for compatibility with the BD Veritor™ System for Rapid Detection of RSV test. The effects of frozen storage of transport media samples on the stability of the antigen were also evaluated in this study by storing them for 24 hours at -20 ± 5°C. The media tested were: Amies. Bartel ViraTrans. BD Universal. Earle's Minimal Essential, Hank's Balanced Salts, M4, M4-RT, M5, M6, Normal Saline, and Phosphate Buffered Saline. No interference or compatibility issues were seen.

CLINICAL STUDIES

Performance characteristics for the BD Veritor System for Rapid Detection of RSV test were established in multi-center clinical studies conducted at five U.S. trial sites during the 2011-2012 respiratory season. A total of 1174 prospectively collected specimens received in the laboratory with an order for respiratory virus testing were enrolled in the study, of which. 26 were noncompliant with the study protocol and one was noncompliant on the viral cell culture reference testing level. Removal of these specimens yields a total of 1147 specimens. One additional specimen had a final undetermined viral cell culture reference result which could not be verified. Removal of this specimen results in a total of 1146 specimens. A total of 1146 were evaluated using the BD Veritor System for Rapid Detection of RSV test and viral cell culture. The prospective specimens consisted of 440 Nasopharyngeal Wash /Aspirates (NPWA) and 706 nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) in transport media from symptomatic patients. 44.3% of the samples were from females and 55.7% from males. 80% of patients were 2 years and under.

The performance of the BD Veritor System for Rapid Detection of RSV test was compared to an FDA cleared D3 Duet™ DFA on R-Mix cell culture and is presented in the following tables

The BD Veritor™ System for Rapid Detection of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a chromatographic immunoassay with an instrumented read for the direct and qualitative detection of RSV fusion protein from nasopharyngeal washes/aspirates and nasopharyngeal swabs in transport media from patients suspected of having a viral respiratory infection. This test is intended for in vitro diagnostic use to aid in the diagnosis of RSV infections in infants and pediatric patients under the age of 20 years. Negative results do not preclude RSV infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or for other management decisions. A negative test is presumptive. It is recommended that negative test results be confirmed by viral cell culture or an alternative method, such as a FDAcleared molecular assay. The test is intended for professional and laboratory use. It is to be used in conjunction with the BD Veritor TM System Reader.
