The device description and performance studies focus on the physical and biological properties of the control material and its performance in a standard PCR-based assay, with no mention of AI or ML.
No
This device is a quality control product used to monitor the performance of an in vitro diagnostic panel, not a therapeutic device. It does not provide treatment or mitigation for any disease.
No
This device is described as an external positive and negative assayed control to monitor the performance of another device (BioFire FilmArray Blood Culture Identification 2 Panel). It is a quality control product, not a diagnostic device itself.
No
The device description explicitly states that the device is a "quality control containing stabilized blood components, blood culture media components, and inactivated microorganisms resulting in a full-process, cellular-based control". This indicates the device is a physical product containing biological and chemical components, not solely software.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" explicitly states that the device is "intended for use as an external positive and negative assayed control to monitor the performance of the qualitative detection of yeast, Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria, as well as associated antimicrobial resistance genes, by the BioFire FilmArray Blood Culture Identification 2 (BCID2) Panel on FilmArray systems." This describes a product used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples (blood culture) for diagnostic purposes (identifying pathogens and resistance genes).
- Device Description: The description details the composition of the control, including "stabilized blood components, blood culture media components, and inactivated microorganisms." This further confirms its use with biological samples in a laboratory setting.
- Purpose of Use: The device is used to "monitor the performance" of another diagnostic device (the BioFire FilmArray BCID2 Panel). Quality control materials used to assess the accuracy and reliability of diagnostic tests are considered IVDs themselves.
- Performance Studies: The document includes performance studies like "Multi-Site Precision (Reproducibility)," "Single-Site Precision (Repeatability)," and "Lot-to-Lot Reproducibility," which are typical evaluations for IVD devices to demonstrate their reliability.
- Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device(s)" with a K number (K200010) indicates that this device is being compared to a previously cleared IVD device, which is a common regulatory pathway for new IVDs.
Based on these points, the MDx-Chex for BCID2 clearly fits the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
MDx-Chex for BCID2 Control 1 - GN is positive for certain pathogens and antimicrobial resistance genes in the FilmArray BCID 2 panel and negative for those contained in MDx-Chex for BCID2 Control 2 - GPY. MDx-Chex for BCID2 Control 2 - GPY is positive for the remaining pathogen and antimicrobial resistance genes and negative for those present in MDx-Chex for BCID2 Control 1 - GN (see Table 1 below). Each control mix also contains and controls for blood and blood culture media components that have been identified as PCR inhibitors namely hemoglobin, leukocyte DNA, and anticoagulants.
MDx-Chex for BCID2 is a quality control containing stabilized blood components, blood culture media components, and inactivated microorganisms resulting in a full-process, cellular-based control for the BioFire BCID2 Panel. Use of full-process cellular controls are necessary to evaluate the entire analytical process, including sample lysis, nucleic acid isolation and purification, amplification, detection, and analysis, as well as the impact of PCR inhibitors and preanalytical variables. Routine use of full process quality controls can help identify variations in the test system that can lead to incorrect results.

Ten samples per control level (20 samples total per lot) were tested using the BCID2 panel by users at each site over a 10-day period. Three lots were used for this study. All samples were prepared and analyzed on the BioFire FilmArray Instrument per the control and BCID2 Instructions for Use. Samples were analyzed internally at Streck (La Vista, NE). External studies were conducted at UNMC (Omaha, NE), Children's Hospital and Medical Center (Omaha, NE), and Mary Lanning Healthcare (Hastings, NE). All MDx-Chex lots passed with an overall positive and negative percent agreement of ≥ 95%. The results therefore support the conclusion that MDx-Chex for BCID2 shows reproducibility across three separately manufactured control lots between sites, days, and operators when used with the BioFire FlimArray BCID2 panel on the BioFire Film Array Torch and 2.0 Systems.

Single-Site Precision (Repeatability)
The repeatability of MD-Chex for BCID2 was evaluated using three separately manufactured lots of control. Each lot was tested across two BioFire FilmArray Torch instruments (2 modules per instrument). A minimum of three BCID2 pouch lots were used.
Twenty samples per lot per level were tested by four operators over a period of 20 non-consecutive days at Streck. The first time point was also used as the Day 0, replicate 1 for the closed-vial stability testing summarized below. The remainder of the data points were independently run and analyzed. Samples and pouches were prepared according to BCID2 and control instructions. Samples were analyzed on the BioFire FilmArray Torch per the BioFire BCID2 Panel Instructions for Use. All MDx-Chex lots passed with an overall positive and negative percent agreement of ≥ 95%. The data supports that there are no significant differences between operators on different days when testing different SMC lots. The results support the conclusion that MDx-Chex for BCID2 shows repeatability across three separately manufactured control lots when used with the BioFire FilmArrav BCID2 panel.

Lot-to-Lot Reproducibility
The reproducibility of MDx-Chex for BCID2 was evaluated using three separately manufactured lots of control. Each lot was removed from 2-8 °C storage and allowed to warm to room temperature per the control Instructions for Use (IFU) prior to testing with the BCID2 panel. Multiple lots of BCID2 pouches were used for testing. Pouches were prepared according to the BCID2 assay instructions. Samples were prepared in accordance with the control IFU.
Testing consisted of 6 samples per control lot and level (12 total samples per lot). A total of 36 complete runs were generated for the data analysis from all control lots. Data from the first 6 timeooints in the repeatability study above were also used for the lot-to-lot precision analysis. For within-run precision analysis, data from the first 6 control vials tested, per control level, for closed-vial stability below were used for analysis of one control lot collected on the same day. All MDx-Chex lots passed with an overall positive and negative percent agreement of ≥ 90%. The results support that MDx-Chex for BCID2 is reproducible across three separately manufactured lots when used with the BioFire FilmArray BCID2 panel. The results also demonstrate that there are no significant differences in results within-run and between different control lots.

Closed-Vial Stability
The closed-vial stability study assessed the real-time stability of MDx-Chex for BCD2 using the FilmArray Torch system. Three separately manufactured lots were stored at 2-8°C (refrigerated) and 20-25°C (room temperature). Ten samples per control lot and level were tested with the BCID2 panel at Day 0 and a minimum of 61 days per each lot and storage condition. Prior to sample analysis, BCID2 pouches were prepared according to the BCID2 assay instructions. Samples were prepared and analyzed on the BioFire FilmArray Torch per MDx-Chex for BCID2 and BCID2 assay Instructions for Use. This summary contains results that support a 60 day closed-vial stability claim for MDx-Chex for BCID2 when stored at 2-25℃. All MDx-Chex lots passed with an overall positive and negative percent agreement of ≥ 95%.

Matrix Effect
To assess the MDx-Chex matrix effect on the BioFire FilmArray BCID2 panel, inactivated Streptococus pneumoniae was spiked into the control matrix (containing RBCs, WBCs, and simulated blood culture media). Streptococcus pneumoniae was also spiked into a BD BACTEC Plus Aerobic/F culture bottle with negative whole blood to simulate a clinical samples were tested in triplicate using the BCID2 Panel. Three replicates of each simulated matrix with no spike-in organism were also tested to serve as negative controls. BCID2 pouches were prepared according to the BCID2 assay instruction. Samples were prepared and analyzed on the BioFire FilmArray Torch per the control and BCID2 Instructions for Use. The MDx-Chex matrix passed with an overall positive and negative percent agreement of 100% to the analytes tested. The results demonstrated that samples prepared with the MDx-Chex matrix showed no inhibition and/or false negative results when used with the FilmArray BCID2 panel. The data therefore support the conclusion that MDx-Chex performs identically to a clinical BCID2 panel sample, positive blood culture sample.

Shipping Stability
The purpose of this study was to validate the stability of MDx-Chex for BCID2 after shipment during simulated summer and winter shipping conditions. Two sets of samples from one control lot were exposed to summer and winter temperature profiles using an environmental chamber.
Samples exposed to Winter and Summer profiles were then stored at 2 -8 °C prior to being tested on the BioFire FilmArray Torch. For each temperature profile, ten samples of control (Control 1 and Control 2) from the same lot were tested using BCID2 pouches according to the BCID2 assay instruction. All pouches were prepared according to the BCID2 assay instructions before analysis. All samples were prepared and analyzed on the BioFire FilmArray Torch per MDx-Chex for BCID2 and BCID2 assay Instructions for Use. All summer and winter shipping conditions passed with ≥ 95% positive and negative agreement. The claim that MDx-Chex for BCID2 remains functional after exposure to extreme temperature (winter, summer) shipping conditions.
