Brief Summary

Direct in-vitro identification of S. aureus, methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA), and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) from positive blood cultures by MicroPhage's bacteriophage-based diagnostic platform, two gold-standard reference methods, and two predicate devices with similar indications for use.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Determination of the performance of the MicroPhage S. aureus/ MSSA/MRSA Test for identification of S. aureus and determination of MRSA and MSSA direct from clinical blood culture positives against gold standard laboratory tests.

    i) Comparison of the MicroPhage S. aureus/MSSA/MRSA test for identification of S. aureus to the gold Standard for S. aureus (coagulase positive, catalase positive, Staphaurex positive, and PYR negative).

    Daily per device protocol

  • Determination of comparative performance of the MicroPhage S. aureus/MRSA/MSSA Test to the Oxoid PBP2a for determination of MRSA.

    Performance comparison of the two tests.

    Daily per device protocol

  • Determination of the performance of the MicroPhage S. aureus/ MSSA/MRSA Test for identification of S. aureus and determination of MRSA and MSSA direct from clinical blood culture positives against gold standard laboratory tests.

    ii) Comparison of the MicroPhage S. aureus/MSSA/MRSA test for identification of S. aureus and determination of MRSA to the gold Standard for MRSA (S. aureus gold standard and \</=10mm OXA DD or \</=21mm CFX DD) iii) Comparison of the MicroPhage S. aureus/MSSA/MRSA test for identification of S. aureus and determination of MSSA to the gold Standard for MSSA (S. aureus gold standard and \>/=13mm OXA DD or \>/=22mm CFX DD)

    Daily per device protocol

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Determination of clinical performance of the MicroPhage S. aureus/MSSA/MRSA Test to monitor S. aureus/MSSA/MRSA bacteremia clinical blood culture positives with unique subjects.

    Daily per device protocol

Study Arms (2)

Standard of Care

Current practice methods for the determination of bacteremia, specific to site practice.

Device: MicroPhage S. aureus/MSSA/MRSA Blood Culture Test

Gold Standard ID/AST

Identification of S. aureus: coagulase positive, catalase positive, Staphaurex positive, and PYR negative, if performed). Determination of MRSA:S. aureus gold standard and \</=11mm OXA DD or \</=21mm CFX DD. Determination of MSSA: S. aureus gold standard and \>/=13mm OXA DD or \>/=22mm CFX DD.

Device: MicroPhage S. aureus/MSSA/MRSA Blood Culture Test

Interventions

In vitro diagnostic for the Identification of S. aureus and determination of MSSA or MRSA from a positive blood culture. Approximately 5 hour rapid test.
