Device Class
Class 2
Intended Use
The Sensititre MIC and Breakpoint Susceptibility system is an in vitro diagnostic product for clinical susceptibility testing of non-fastidious Gram negative isolates, comprising of Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and other non-Enterobacteriaceae and of non-fastidious Gram positive isolates, comprising of Staphylococcus spp., Enterococcus spp., and Beta haemolytic Streptococci other than S. pneumoniae.
Device Story
Sensititre 18-24 hour MIC system; multi-well plastic micro-titer plates containing dried, stabilized antimicrobials; micro-version of broth dilution method. Clinical lab use; requires Sensititre AIM autoinoculator for sample preparation; plates incubated 18-24 hours. Growth detection via VIZION digital viewing device (video camera/touch screen) or OptiRead automated reader (fluorescence technology). OptiRead detects bacterial growth by monitoring surface enzyme activity; fluorogenic substrate cleavage releases fluorescence proportional to growth. Output: Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and interpretive criteria (S, I, R). Healthcare providers use MIC results to guide antimicrobial therapy decisions for non-fastidious Gram-positive infections.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance was evaluated by comparing the Sensititre system's MIC results for Delafloxacin against a reference broth microdilution method. Testing included clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus haemolyticus, Staphylococcus lugdunensis, and Enterococcus faecalis. Results demonstrated essential agreement and categorical agreement within acceptable FDA criteria for antimicrobial susceptibility testing devices.
Technological Characteristics
Microbroth dilution susceptibility testing system. Consists of multi-well plates containing dehydrated antimicrobial agent (Delafloxacin) in 0.0005-8 ug/ml range. Operates via visual or automated growth detection after 18-24 hour incubation. Designed for non-fastidious Gram-positive organisms. Standardized laboratory equipment.
Indications for Use
Indicated for in vitro clinical susceptibility testing of non-fastidious Gram-positive organisms, specifically Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA/MSSA), Staphylococcus haemolyticus, Staphylococcus lugdunensis, and Enterococcus faecalis, using Delafloxacin in the 0.0005-8 ug/ml range.
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.

Dear Ms. Knapp:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
