More Information

Not Found

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, which is typical for this type of device.

No
This device is for in-vitro diagnostic use, specifically to determine bacterial susceptibility to an antimicrobial agent, which identifies if the drug will be effective in a patient but does not directly provide therapy.

Yes
The device determines gram-positive bacterial susceptibility against an antimicrobial agent, which is a diagnostic function used to guide treatment decisions.

No

The device description explicitly states "Microdilution Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) Panels, MicroScan® Dried Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panels," which are physical laboratory panels used for testing, indicating it is a hardware device.

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 Levofloxacin." This is a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body) on a biological sample (bacterial culture) to provide information about a patient's potential response to a specific treatment.
  • Device Description: The device is described as "Microdilution Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) Panels." MIC panels are a standard method used in clinical microbiology laboratories to determine the lowest concentration of an antimicrobial agent that inhibits the visible growth of a microorganism. This is a classic example of an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies describe comparing the device's performance to a "NCCLS frozen Levofloxacin Reference panel," which is another type of IVD used for the same purpose. The metrics reported (Essential Agreement) are also typical for evaluating the performance of IVD devices.

The information provided clearly indicates that this device is designed to be used in vitro to diagnose or provide information about a medical condition (bacterial infection and its susceptibility to an antibiotic).

Summary of Performance Studies

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 Levofloxacin panel by comparing its performance with an NCCLS frozen Levofloxacin Reference panel.
The Dried Gram-Positive Levofloxacin panel demonstrated acceptable performance with an overall Essential Agreement of 99.4% when compared with the frozen Levofloxacin Reference panel.
Inoculum and instrument reproducibility testing was conducted; both the Gram-Positive Dried Levofloxacin panels 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 both the Gram-Positive Dried Levofloxacin panels.
