More Information

Not Found

NCCLS frozen Sparfloxacin Reference panel

No
The summary describes a standard antimicrobial susceptibility testing panel and does not mention any AI or ML components. The performance studies compare the device to a reference panel using traditional metrics like essential agreement.

No
The device is used to determine bacterial susceptibility to an antimicrobial agent, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic intervention.

Yes

The device determines bacterial susceptibility to an antimicrobial agent, which is a diagnostic function used to guide treatment decisions for infections.

No

The device description explicitly states "Microdilution Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) Panels," which are physical laboratory panels used for testing. The performance studies also describe comparisons with "frozen Sparfloxacin Reference panel," further indicating a hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "determine gram-positive bacterial susceptibility against the antimicrobial agent Sparfloxacin." This is a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body) on a biological sample (bacteria).
  • Device Description: The device is described as "Microdilution Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) Panels." MIC panels are a standard method used in clinical laboratories to determine the susceptibility of bacteria to antibiotics, which is a key part of the diagnostic process for guiding treatment.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies compare the device to a "NCCLS frozen Sparfloxacin Reference panel," which is a reference standard used in the field of antimicrobial susceptibility testing. This further confirms its role in a diagnostic context.
  • Key Metrics: The mention of "Essential Agreement" is a common metric used to evaluate the performance of antimicrobial susceptibility testing devices, indicating how well the device's results agree with a reference method.

All of these elements point to the device being used to perform a diagnostic test on a biological sample outside of the body, which is the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

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

The gram-positive external evaluations were conducted with fresh and stock Efficacy isolates and stock Challenge strains. The external evaluations were designed to confirm the acceptability of the proposed Dried Sparfloxacin panel by comparing its performance with an NCCLS frozen Sparfloxacin Reference panel.

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

The proposed MicroScan® Dried Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panel with Sparfloxacin demonstrated substantially equivalent performance when compared with an NCCLS frozen Sparfloxacin Reference Panel, as defined in the FDA DRAFT document "Review Criteria for Assessment of Antimicrobial Susceptibility Devices" (dated May 31, 1991).

The Dried Gram-Positive Sparfloxacin panel demonstrated acceptable performance with an overall Essential Agreement of 98.4% when compared with the frozen Sparfloxacin Reference panel.
Inoculum and instrument reproducibility testing was conducted; the Gram-Positive Dried Sparfloxacin panel demonstrated acceptable reproducibility and precision, regardless of which inoculum method (i.e., Turbidity and Prompt), or instrument (autoScan-4 and WalkAway Systems) was used.
Quality Control performance was acceptable for the Gram-Positive Dried Sparfloxacin panels.
