Intended Use
The MicroScan® Synergies plus® Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panel is used to determine quantitative and/or qualitative antimicrobial agent susceptibility of colonies grown on solid media of rapidly growing aerobic and facultative anaerobic gram-positive staphylococci and enterococci. After inoculation, panels are incubated for 4.5 - 18 hours at 35℃ +/- 1℃, in a WalkAway® SI, or equivalent, and read by the MicroScan® Instrumentation. Additionally, the panels may be incubated in a non-CO2 incubator and the Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST) portions can be read visually, according to the Package Insert. This particular submission is for the addition of the antimicrobial vancomycin, at concentrations of 0.25 to 64 ug/ml, to the test panel. The gram-positive organisms which may be used for vancomycin susceptibility testing in this panel are: Enterococcus spp. (e.g., Enterococcus faecalis) . Staphylococcus spp. ● Staphylococcus aureus (including methicillin-resistant strains) . Staphylococcus epidermidis (including methicillin-resistant ● strains)
Device Story
MicroScan® Synergies plus® Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panels are miniaturized broth dilution susceptibility tests. Panels contain dehydrated antimicrobial agents; rehydrated with Synergies plus® Pos Broth after inoculation with standardized organism suspensions. Panels incubated in WalkAway® SI system (or equivalent) for 4.5-18 hours. System reads minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) by identifying lowest concentration inhibiting growth. Used in clinical laboratories by trained personnel. Output provides quantitative MIC values to assist clinicians in selecting appropriate antimicrobial therapy for gram-positive infections.
Clinical Evidence
Performance evaluated using 549 clinical isolates and 78 challenge strains. Combined Rapid Read results showed 97.6% Essential Agreement and 97.9% Categorical Agreement. S. aureus-specific analysis (n=208) showed high agreement across all read methods (Rapid, Overnight Instrument, Overnight Manual). Minor errors increased slightly with new criteria but remained within acceptable limits per FDA guidance. No change in major error rates. Bench testing confirmed performance is acceptable.
Technological Characteristics
Miniaturized broth dilution panels; dehydrated antimicrobial agents in wells. Rehydrated with Synergies plus® Pos Broth. Incubation 4.5-18 hours at 35°C. Automated reading via WalkAway® SI system or visual reading. Connectivity via instrument integration.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the determination of susceptibility to Vancomycin in gram-positive enterococci and staphylococci.
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.”

#### 510(k) Summary:
MicroScan® Synergies plus Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panels, utilizing both the MicroScan® Rapid Fluorogenic Identification and Dried Overnight Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST) technologies, are designed for use in determining quantitative antimicrobial agent susceptibility of colonies grown on solid media of rapidly growing and facultative anaerobic gram-positive staphylococci and enterococci.
The antimicrobial susceptibility tests are miniaturizations of the broth dilution susceptibility test that have been diluted in water and dehydrated. Various antimicrobial agents are diluted in water, buffer, or minute concentrations of broth, to concentrations bridging the range of clinical interest. Panels are rehydrated with Synergies plus® Pos Broth, after inoculation with a standardized suspension of the organism. After incubation in the WalkAway® SI System, or equivalent, for 4.5 -18 hours, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for the test organism is read by determining the lowest antimicrobial concentration showing inhibition of growth.
The proposed MicroScan® Synergies plus® Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panel demonstrated substantially equivalent performance when compared with a frozen Reference Panel, as defined in the FDA document "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test (AST) Systems; Guidance for Industry and FDA", dated March 5, 2007. The Premarket Notification (510[k]) presents data in support of the MicroScan® Synergies plus® Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panel with vancomycin.
Vancomvcin has been cleared for susceptibility testing via Premarket Notification submissions. The Special Premarket Notification (510{k}) presents support of a request for a device modification, the updating of the product labeling with S. aureus interpretive criteria of (S ≤ 2, 1 = 4 -8, R ≥ 16).
The S. aureus data from the previously cleared vancomycin external evaluation (K060312) was compared to the performance of a CLSI frozen Reference panel utilizing the revised interpretative criteria (S ≤ 2. I = 4 -8. R ≥ 16). Challenge strains were compared to Expected Results determined prior to the evaluation. The Synergies plus Gram-Positive Panel demonstrated acceptable performance with an overall Essential Agreement of 97.6% for vancomycin when compared with the frozen Reference panel.
