Device Story

MicroScan Dried Gram-Negative MIC/Combo Panels utilize broth microdilution to determine minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of meropenem for gram-negative bacteria. Panels contain dehydrated antimicrobial agents; clinical samples are inoculated into the panel using either Prompt or Turbidity methods. Following incubation, panels are read via automated systems (WalkAway, autoSCAN 4) or manual visual inspection. The device provides quantitative MIC results, which clinicians use to guide antibiotic therapy selection for patients with gram-negative infections. The modification adds Acinetobacter spp. to the existing indications for meropenem testing. The device is used in clinical microbiology laboratories by trained laboratory personnel.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance evaluated using fresh and stock efficacy and challenge isolates of Acinetobacter spp. compared to CLSI frozen reference panels. Results showed 91.1% Essential Agreement and 98.2% Categorical Agreement for Meropenem. Reproducibility and precision testing confirmed acceptable performance across both Prompt and Turbidity inoculum methods and both WalkAway and autoSCAN-4 instrument platforms. Quality control testing met acceptance criteria.

Technological Characteristics

Miniaturized broth microdilution panels; dehydrated antimicrobial agents. Inoculation via standardized suspension (Turbidity or Prompt method). Incubation 16-20 hours at non-CO2 conditions. Readout via automated instrumentation (WalkAway or autoSCAN-4).

Indications for Use

Indicated for determining quantitative and/or qualitative antimicrobial agent susceptibility of rapidly growing aerobic and facultative anaerobic gram-negative bacilli, including Acinetobacter spp., using colonies grown on solid media.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An antimicrobial susceptibility test powder is a device that consists of an antimicrobial drug powder packaged in vials in specified amounts and intended for use in clinical laboratories for determining in vitro susceptibility of bacterial pathogens to these therapeutic agents. Test results are used to determine the antimicrobial agent of choice in the treatment of bacterial diseases.

In addition, the submitter's description of the particular modification(s) and the comparative information between the modified and unmodified devices demonstrate that the fundamental scientific technology has not changed. The submitter has provided the design control information as specified in The New 510(k) Paradigm and on this basis, I recommend the device be determined substantially equivalent to the previously cleared device. To support the implementation of changes to FDA-recognized susceptibility test interpretive criteria (i.e., breakpoints), this submission referred to the breakpoint change protocol that was reviewed and accepted by FDA in K192355. This protocol addresses future revisions to device labeling in response to breakpoint changes that are recognized on the FDA STIC webpage (https://www.fda.gov/Drugs/DevelopmentApprovalProcess/DevelopmentResources/ucm410971.htm). The protocol outlined the specific procedures and acceptance criteria that Beckman Coulter intends to use to evaluate the MicroScan Dried Gram-Negative MIC/Combo Panels with Meropenem (Mer) (0.004 - 32 µg/mL) when revised breakpoints for meropenem are published on the FDA STIC webpage. The breakpoint change protocol indicated that if specific criteria are met, Beckman Coulter will update the meropenem device label to include (1) the new breakpoints, (2) an updated performance section after re-evaluation of data in this premarket notification with the new breakpoints, and (3) any new limitations as determined by their evaluation.
