Indications for Use
The BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System is intended for in vitro quantitative determination of antimicrobial susceptibility by minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of most Gram-negative aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria isolates from pure culture for Enterobacteriaceae and Non-Enteriaceae and most Gram-positive bacteria isolates from pure culture belonging to the genera Staphylococcus, Enterococcus and Streptococcus. This premarket notification is for the addition of the antimicrobial agent doxycycline at concentrations of (0.25 - 16 ug/mL) to Gram-positive ID/AST or AST only Phoenix panels. Doxycycline has been shown to be active in vitro against most strains of microorganisms listed below, as described in the FDA-approved package insert for this antimicrobial agent.
Device Story
BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System performs in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST). System uses molded polystyrene trays with 136 micro-wells containing dried reagents. Pure culture isolates are suspended in broth, equated to 0.5 McFarland standard using BD CrystalSpec™ Nephelometer, and inoculated into panels. Panels contain AST indicator (redox-based); color changes from blue to pink to colorless as organism growth reduces indicator. Instrument continuously incubates panels at 35°C, scanning barcodes and reading wells every 20 minutes. Software-driven 'EXPERT' system interprets biochemical and antimicrobial reactions to determine MIC values and categorical interpretations (SIR) based on CLSI rules. System provides automated results in 4-16 hours. Benefits include rapid, standardized quantitative susceptibility determination to guide clinical antibiotic therapy.
Clinical Evidence
Performance evaluated using clinical, stock, and challenge isolates across multiple US sites. Comparison made against CLSI reference broth microdilution method. Metrics included Essential Agreement (EA) and Category Agreement (CA). Reproducibility study (intra- and inter-site) demonstrated >90% intra-site and >95% inter-site reproducibility for Gram-positive isolates.
Technological Characteristics
Broth microdilution method using redox indicator (colorimetric oxidation-reduction). Instrumentation includes incubator, barcode scanner, and optical reader. Consumables: molded polystyrene trays with 136 micro-wells. Cation-adjusted Mueller-Hinton broth with 0.01% Tween 80. Automated incubation at 35°C. Software-driven 'EXPERT' system for rule-based interpretation. Standalone system.
Indications for Use
Indicated for in vitro quantitative antimicrobial susceptibility testing (MIC) of pure culture isolates of Gram-negative aerobic/facultative anaerobic bacteria (Enterobacteriaceae/Non-Enterobacteriaceae) and Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus, Enterococcus, Streptococcus).
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A fully automated short-term incubation cycle antimicrobial susceptibility system is a device that incorporates concentrations of antimicrobial agents into a system for the purpose of determining in vitro susceptibility of bacterial pathogens isolated from clinical specimens. Test results obtained from short-term (less than 16 hours) incubation are used to determine the antimicrobial agent of choice to treat bacterial diseases.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is FDA's guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test (AST) Systems; Guidance for Industry and FDA.”
