Common Names An immunoassay for the detection of the antigens for Entamoeba. histolytica, Giardia lamblia and Cryptosporidium parvum in human fecal specimens. - 3. Classification Name Entamoeba histolytica serological reagents - C. Legally Marketed Devices Single Test Kits Manufactured by Alexon, TechLabs, Meridian Diagnostics for the same parasites using enzyme immunoassay technology. - D. Device Description The Triage® Parasite Panel is an enzyme immunoassay used to detect the presence of parasite specific antigens in human fecal specimens. It is a membrane based immunoassay that depends on the detection of the antigen using antibodies with specificities to at least two distinct antigenic sites on the molecule. - ய் Intended Use {1}------------------------------------------------ The Triage® Parasite Panel is an enzyme immunoassay used for the detection of antigens for Entamoeba histolytica. Giardia lamblia and Cryptosporidium parvum in human fecal specimens. This test is used as an aid in the diagnosis of intestinal parasitic disease. - ய Comparison of the Methods with Predicate Devices The Triage® Parasite Panel provides a qualitative determination of the presence of parasite specific antigens in human fecal specimens. Other tests manufactured by Alexon, Trend, LMD laboratories. TechLabs are all enzyme immunoassays that have been cleared through the 510(k) process. These tests have been shown to provide essentially the same clinical results as traditional O&P examination using microscopic visualization of various phases of the life cycle of the parasite. - Summary of Analytical Data G. Analytical Sensitivity The analytical sensitivity of the Triage® Parasite Panel is 3 ng of alpha-1giardin (G. lamblia), 4 ng of 29 kDa surface antigen (E. histolytica/dispar) and 6 ng of protein disulfide isomerase (C. parvum) per milliliter of fecal specimen. Reproducibility The precision and reproducibility of this product has been demonstrated to be comparable to other products of this nature. - H. Summary of Clinical Data The performance of the Triage® Parasite Panel was evaluated using both positive and negative stool specimens. All specimens were examined using standard ova and parasite examination using Modified Acid Fast Staining and Trichrome Staining procedures. The results of the Triage® Parasite Panel were compared to standard ova and parasite examination for the presence of G. lamblia, E. histolytica/dispar, and C. parvum. The clinical sensitivity and specificity, the positive and negative predictive value, the 95% confidence intervals and the prevalence of the disease in the population tested are presented. {2}------------------------------------------------ # Triage G. lamblia | O & P Evaluation | | | | |------------------|-----|-----|-------| | | + | - | Total | | + | 135 | 35 | 170 | | - | 7 | 267 | 274 | | Total | 142 | 302 | 444 | | Sensitivity | | 95.1% | | |-----------------------------------|--|----------------|----------------| | Specificity | | 88.4% | | | | | LOWER<br>LIMIT | UPPER<br>LIMIT | | 95% Confidence Limits Sensitivity | | 91.5% | 98.6% | | 95% Confidence Limits Specificity | | 84.8% | 92.0% | | 95% Confidence Limits Agreement | | 87.8% | 93.3% | | Positive Predictive Value | | 79.4% | | | Negative Predictive Value | | 97.4% | | | Prevalence | | 32.0% | | 36 {3}------------------------------------------------ ### Triage E. + histolytica/ dispar | O & P Evaluation | | | |------------------|-----|-------| | + | - | Total | | 38 | 60 | 98 | | 4 | 341 | 345 | | 42 | 401 | 443 | | Sensitivity | 90.5% | | |-----------------------------------|----------------|----------------| | Specificity | 85.0% | | | | LOWER<br>LIMIT | UPPER<br>LIMIT | | 95% Confidence Limits Sensitivity | 81.6% | 99.4% | | 95% Confidence Limits Specificity | 81.5% | 88.5% | | 95% Confidence Limits Agreement | 82.3% | 88.8% | | Positive Predictive Value | 38.8% | | | Negative Predictive Value | 98.8% | | | Prevalence | 9.5% | | Total The large number of "apparent false positive results" using the Triage® Parasite Panel is primarily attributed the overall lack of sensitivity of microscopic examination as compared to culture. The sensitivity of microscopic examination has been reported to be 62% as compared to culture techniques. 37 {4}------------------------------------------------ ## O & P Examination ### Triage C. parvum | + | - | Total | |----|-----|-------| | 53 | 7 | 60 | | 5 | 379 | 384 | | 58 | 386 | 444 | Total + 에 | Sensitivity | 91.4% | | | |-----------------------------------|-------|-------------|-------------| | Specificity | 98.2% | | | | | | LOWER LIMIT | UPPER LIMIT | | 95% Confidence Limits Sensitivity | | 84.2% | 98.6% | | 95% Confidence Limits Specificity | | 96.9% | 99.5% | | 95% Confidence Limits Agreement | | 95.8% | 98.8% | | Positive Predictive Value | | 88.3% | | | Negative Predictive Value | | 98.7% | | | Prevalence | | 13.1% | | ి ప్రాం . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ا : {5}------------------------------------------------ All specimens were tested using commercially available immunoassays. Those specimens that produced a positive result were evaluated using the "gold standard" of microscopic examination. - Statistical analysis of the data showed that the sensitivity of the three tests contained in the Triage® Parasite Panel was not statistically different from those of commercially available immunoassays for Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica/dispar. and Cryptosporidium parvum that have reported sensitivities of 96%. 87% and 95% when compared to microscopic techniques. Additionally, there was not a statistical difference in the specificity of the Triage® G. lamblia or the C. parvum tests when compared to commercially available tests, each having a reported specificity of 98% for both organisms. The specificity of the Triage® E. histolytica test was significantly greater than a commercially available immunoassay having a reported specificity of 99%. Conventional microscopic examination of fecal specimens has been demonstrated to be less sensitive than other scientifically valid techniques for the identification of the presence of parasites, including immunoassays and the detection of parasite-specific nucleic acid. In addition, the presence of disease as determined by collection and analysis of multiple specimens from the same patient provides evidence for the lack of clinical sensitivity of conventional microscopic examination . Inasmuch as the "gold standard" is not ideal for the detection of the organisms, the likelihood of observing false positive results using a comparative method is increased. Therefore, those specimens producing apparent false positive results in the Triage® Parasite Panel were evaluated using other commercially available enzyme immunoassays. Twenty-eight of the 35 apparent false positive results for G. lamblia, 57 of the 60 apparent false positive results for the E. histolytica/dispar and, 6 of the 7 apparent false positive results for the C. parvum test also were positive using other commercial immunoassays for these same organisms. These results support the studies stating that the sensitivity of conventional microscopic examination is less than desired. #### 1. Conclusion The Triage® Parasite Panel is an enzyme immunoassay used for the detection of antigens for Entamoeba histolytica, Giardia lamblia and Cryptosporidium parvum in human fecal specimens. This test is used as an aid in the diagnosis of intestinal parasitic disease. The summarized data provided demonstrate that the Triage® Parasite Panel produces essentially the same results as the recognized standard methods for the identification of parasites in stool specimens. Additionally, the Triage® Parasite Panel produces essentially the same results as other commercially available products. {6}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/6/Picture/2 description: The image shows a partial view of a document or logo.
