After inoculation, panels are incubated for 16 - 24 hours at 35℃ +/- 1℃ in a non-CO2 incubator, and read either visually or with MicroScan instrumentation, according to the Package Insert. The MicroScan Cefoxitin Screen is intended to determine the susceptibility of staphylococci to the penicillinase stable beta-lactams. This particular submission is for the addition of the antimicrobial test the Cefoxitin Screen, at a concentration of 4 mcg/ml, to the test panel. The gram-positive organisms which may be used for Cefoxitin Screen susceptibility testing in this panel are: Staphylococcus aureus Staphylococcus lugdunensis ## Device Story MicroScan® Dried Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panels utilize dehydrated Mueller Hinton Broth and nutrients in microdilution wells. Inoculum prepared via turbidity or Prompt® method; panels rehydrated and incubated at 35°C for 16-20 hours. Device detects qualitative antimicrobial susceptibility; Cefoxitin Screen (CfxS) well (4 µg/mL) used alongside oxacillin MIC to assess resistance. Read manually or automatically via autoScan® 4 or WalkAway® instruments. Output provides MIC and categorical interpretation (SIR). Used in clinical microbiology laboratories to guide antibiotic selection for S. aureus and S. lugdunensis infections. ## Clinical Evidence Clinical evaluation compared Cefoxitin Screen performance against CLSI cefoxitin disk diffusion and mecA PCR using fresh/stock clinical isolates and challenge strains. Results: 97.8% categorical agreement vs. disk diffusion; 98.7% vs. mecA PCR. Sensitivity/Specificity vs. disk diffusion: 98.6%/96.9%. Sensitivity/Specificity vs. mecA PCR: 99.7%/97.7%. Reproducibility testing confirmed performance across different inoculum methods (Turbidity, Prompt) and instruments (autoSCAN-4, WalkAway). ## Technological Characteristics Miniaturized broth microdilution panels; dehydrated antimicrobial agents in wells. Rehydrated with water. Incubation 16-24 hours at 35°C. Compatible with visual reading or automated instrumentation (autoSCAN-4, WalkAway). ## Regulatory 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. ## Predicate Devices - MicroScan Dried Gram-Positive and Gram-Negative MIC/Combo Panels ([K862140](/device/K862140.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

stable beta-lactams | | 510(k) Notification: | New antimicrobial test - Cefoxitin Screen | | Predicate device: | MicroScan Dried Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panels | ## 510(k) Summary: MicroScan Dried Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panels are designed for use in determining quantitative and/or qualitative antimicrobial agent susceptibility of colonies grown on solid media of rapidly growing aerobic and facultative anaerobic gram-positive cocci. The antimicrobial susceptibility tests are miniaturizations of the broth dilution susceptibility test that have been diluted in broth and dehydrated. Various antimicrobial agents are diluted in broth to concentrations bridging the range of clinical interest. Panels are rchydrated with water after inoculation with a standardized suspension of the organism. After incubation in a non-CO2 incubator for 16-20 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 Dried Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panel with the Cefoxitin Screen demonstrated substantially equivalent performance when compared with the CLSI cefoxitin disk diffusion test and mecA PCR, as defined in the FDA document "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Antimicrobial Susccptibility Test (AST) Systems: Guidance for Industry and FDA", dated March 5, 2007, and "Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff-Statistical Guidance on Reporting Results from Studies Evaluating Diagnostic Tests", dated March 13, 2007. The Premarket Notification (510[k]) presents data in support of the MicroScan Dricd Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Pancl with the Cefoxitin Screen. The external design validation (Clinical Trial) was conducted with fresh and stock Efficacv isolates and stock Challenge strains. The external evaluations were designed to confirm the acceptability of the proposed Dried Gram-Positive Pancl by comparing its performance with results of the CLSI cefoxitin disk diffusion test and mecA PCR. Challenge strains were compared to Expected Results determined prior to the evaluation. x {1}------------------------------------------------ The Cefoxitin Screen dcmonstrated acceptable performance with an overall Categorical Agrecment of 97.8% when compared with the CLSI cefoxitin disk diffusion test, and 98.7% when compared to mecA PCR. Overall sensitivity was 98.6% and specificity was 96.9% compared to cefoxitin disk diffusion results. Overall sensitivity was 99.7% and specificity was 97.7% compared to mecA PCR results. Inoculum and instrument reproducibility testing demonstrated acceptable reproducibility and precision with the Cefoxitin Screen, regardless of which inoculum method (i.e., Turbidity and Prompt™), or instrument (autoSCAN-4® and WalkAway®) was used. Quality Control testing demonstrated acceptable results for the Cefoxitin Screen Well (CfxS), cefoxitin at a concentration of 4 mcg/ml. {2}------------------------------------------------ DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the Department of Health & Human Services USA.
