VITEK®2 Gram Negative Tigecycline is intended for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacter cloacae, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella oxytoca, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Citrobacter koseri, Enterobacter aerogenes, and Serratia marcescens. VITEK 2 Gram Negative Tigecycline is a qualitative test. It is intended for use with the VITEK 2 Systems as a laboratory aid in the determination of in vitro susceptibility to antimicrobial agents. The VITEK® 2 Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test (AST) is intended to be used with the VITEK® 2 and VITEK® 2 Compact Systems for the automated quantitative or qualitative susceptibility testing of isolated colonies for the most clinically significant aerobic gram-negative bacilli and Staphylococcus spp., Enterococcus spp., Streptococcus agalactiae, and S. pneumoniae.
Device Story
VITEK® 2 system performs automated antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) for aerobic gram-negative bacilli. Input: isolated bacterial colonies suspended in saline (McFarland 0.5 standard). Process: VITEK® 2 instrument automatically fills, seals, and incubates test cards containing antibiotic-impregnated microwells; optical sensors measure light transmittance every 15 minutes to monitor growth kinetics. Algorithm: discriminate analysis of growth parameters determines Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and categorical interpretation (S/I/R). Output: MIC values and susceptibility categories. Used in clinical laboratories by technicians/microbiologists. Benefits: rapid, automated susceptibility determination to guide antibiotic therapy.
Clinical Evidence
Method comparison study against CLSI M7 agar dilution reference method using 394 clinical and challenge isolates of Enterobacteriaceae. Results: 91.9% Category Agreement (CA). Minor discrepancies: 28; Major discrepancies: 4; Very major discrepancies: 0. Reproducibility >95%. No clinical data (patient outcomes) provided; bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Miniaturized AST card containing antimicrobial medium. Sensing principle: automated optical monitoring of bacterial growth in wells over 18 hours. System: VITEK 2 or VITEK 2 Compact. Connectivity: integrated with VITEK 2 system software for automated reporting. Sterilization: not specified.
Indications for Use
Indicated for testing appropriate Enterobacteriaceae using the VITEK® 2 gram negative susceptibility card to determine susceptibility to Tigecycline (concentrations 0.75, 2, and 4; calling range ≤0.5-≥8μg/mL). Prescription use only.
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.”

VITEK® 2 Gram Negative Tigecycline is designed for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacter cloacae, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella oxytoca, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Citrobacter koseri, Enterobacter aerogenes and Serratia marcescens. It is intended for use with the VITEK 2 and VITEK 2 Compact Systems as a laboratory aid in the determination of in vitro susceptibility to antimicrobial agents. The antimicrobial presented in VITEK 2 AST Cards is in concentrations equivalent by efficacy to standard method concentrations in mog/ml. The VITEK 2 AST Cards are essentially miniaturized versions of the doubling dilution technique for determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) microdifution methodology.
The bacterial isolate to be tested is diluted to a standardized concentration in 0.45% saline before being used to rehydrate the antimicrobial medium within the card. The VITEK 2 automatically fills, seals and places the card into the incubator/reader. The VITEK 2 Compact has a manual filling and sealing operation. The VITEK 2 systems monitor the growth of each well in the card over a defined period of time (up to 18 hours),

At the completion of the incubation cycle, a report is generated that contains the MIC value along with the interpretive category result for each antibiotic contained on the card.
VITEK 2 Gram Negative Tigecvoline demonstrated substantially equivalent performance when compared with the NCCLS reference agar dilution method, as defined in the FDA Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test (AST) Systems; Guidance for Industry and FDA. Issued Feb. 5, 2003.
The Premarket Notification (510[k]) presents data in support of VITEK 2 Gram Negative Tigecycline. An external evaluation was conducted with fresh and stock clinical isolates and stock challenge strains. The external evaluations were designed to confirm the acceptability of VITEK 2 Gram Negative Tigecycline by comparing its performance with the CLSI (formerly NCCLS) agar dilution reference method. VITEK 2 Gram Negative Tigecycline demonstrated acceptable performance of 91.9% overall Category Agreement when compared to the agar dilution reference method. Reproducibility and Quality Control demonstrated acceptable results.
