2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two each contain a 75 mg 13 C-urea tablet for oral solution, and 4 g Citrica (citric acid) for oral solution along with other materials for use with the BreathID system device ( 2.1 , 16 ) o IDkit Hp One is co-packaged with a nasal canula to be used with the BreathID system device as identified in the BreathID system device labeling. ( 2.1 ) o IDkit Hp Two is co-packaged with breath sample bags to be used with the BreathID system device as identified in the BreathID system device labeling. ( 2.1 ) To prepare the oral solution for either kit, dissolve the 13 C-urea tablet and the Citrica (citric acid) for oral solution in 150 to 200 mL of water to provide a clear, colorless solution for oral administration. The resulting solution is ingested by the patient. ( 2.3 ) See full prescribing information for detailed important instructions concerning preparation, administration, and disposal of IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two. ( 2.3 - 2.6 ) See BreathID ® system device manual for additional details for use of IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two with the BreathID system device, including troubleshooting device malfunction. ( 2.2 ) 2.1 Dosage and Administration Overview IDkit Hp One or IDkit Hp Two contain the same drug product, 75 mg 13 C-urea tablet and 4 g Citrica (citric acid) for oral solution and follow the same drug preparation and administration instructions. IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two are to be administered only by trained personnel as ordered by a licensed healthcare practitioner, using the BreathID system device that as identified in the BreathID system device labeling, is intended for use with IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two. For in vitro diagnostic use only. Inform the patient that each 4 g packet of Citrica (citric acid) for oral solution contains 84 mg of phenylalanine per dose. Phenylketonurics restrict dietary phenylalanine [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] . The patient should have fasted for at least one hour before administering the test drink. The patient should not have taken antimicrobials, proton pump inhibitors (PPI), or bismuth preparations within two weeks prior to administering the test. If PPIs are used within two weeks of breath testing, false negative test results may occur, and the test should be repeated two weeks after discontinuation of PPI treatment. A positive result for a patient on PPI could be considered as indicative of the presence of urease enzyme associated with H. pylori . Before opening the kit (IDkit Hp One or IDkit Hp Two), verify that the entire package is intact [see How Supplied/Storage and Handling ( 16 )] . 2.2 Recommended Dosage for Adults and Pediatric Patients 3 Years of Age and Older IDkit Hp One Single-use Kit or IDkit Hp Two Single-use Kit A 75 mg 13 C-urea tablet for oral solution and 4 g Citrica (citric acid) for oral solution are dissolved in 150 to 200 mL of water for oral consumption, and the resulting solution is ingested by the patient. 2.3 Preparation of IDkit Hp One Single-use kit or IDkit Hp Two Single-use Kit Preparation Instructions with IDkit Hp One single-use kit or IDkit Hp Two single-use kit Dissolve the 13 C-urea tablet and Citrica (citric acid) for oral solution in 150 mL to 200 mL of tap water in a single drinking cup of at least eight ounces (236 mL) in capacity. In the IDkit Hp Two kit a drinking cup is provided. Stir thoroughly with the provided straw until the 13 C-urea tablet and Citrica (citric acid) for oral solution are completely dissolved. Tiny particles may remain visible after thorough mixing. However, if more substantial particulate matter is still present after five minutes of stirring, discard the solution and repeat the procedure with a new kit. Use the test drink within two hours of preparation, as this is the maximal time for maintaining solution stability. 2.4 IDkit Hp One Single-use Kit: Instruction for Performing the BreathID H. pylori Test Preparing the BreathID System Device Refer to the BreathID system device labeling for additional details. Ensure that the BreathID system device is activated, and the status is Ready . The status appears on the top right of the screen. Follow the screen instructions Connecting the IDcircuit ® : Take the IDcircuit ® out of its bag and slide the tubing sleeve down as far as it will go. Gently place the cannula tips into the patient’s nostrils, and place the cannula tubing over the ears, as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1 Slide the tubing sleeve up towards the neck to fit comfortably under the chin. Connect the IDcircuit to the BreathID system device by twisting the orange connector at the free end of the cannula clockwise until it is secured into the dedicated socket of the BreathID system device. Verify that the IDcircuit is not twisted or kinked and that the cannula tips are in the nostrils. Ensure that the IDcircuit cannula tips moldings are positioned inwards. Press the START button on the touch screen to proceed. The baseline values will be measured by the BreathID system device, and the results will be shown on the screen. Administering the Test Drink and Starting Measurement Do not administer the test drink until prompted by the screen instructions on the device (this makes certain that the baseline sample has been collected properly). Ensure that the patient drinks the solution through the straw. The patient, including pediatric patients 3 years of age and older, regardless of age and body weight, must drink the solution within two minutes and consume the entire amount. After the patient finishes drinking the solution, press the Continue button on the touch screen to proceed. Measurement with the BreathID System Device The BreathID system device continually analyzes the trend of measured results. When the device determines that the final value will be positive or negative, i.e., greater or less than 5 Delta Over Baseline, it will automatically end the test and print out the results. The breath sample is analyzed in real-time by the BreathID system device; therefore, the stability of the final breath sample will not affect the outcome of the results. Removing and Discarding the IDcircuit: When the measurement is complete, disconnect the IDcircuit from both the patient and the device. Dispose of the IDcircuit and all other used components of the kit according to standard operating procedures or local regulations for the disposal of used medical waste. If you do not disconnect the IDcircuit, instructions will appear on the device screen reminding you to do so. The device will not proceed to the next screen until the IDcircuit is disconnected. Printing Results: After the measurement is complete, the device will automatically print the test results. The printout contains the graph as seen on the screen, including the Patient ID (if entered), date, time, test number, and Delta Over Baseline value of the last point measured. Tear off the printed results and fill in additional patient data as required. Figure 1 2.5 IDkit Hp Two Single-use Kit: Instructions for Performing the BreathID H. pylori Test Identify the two Breath Sample Bags (the blue BASELINE bag and the gray POST INGESTION bag). Prior to sampling the patient’s breath, label each bag with the supplied barcode labels or write the necessary identification information in the appropriate fields on each bag. Collection of the BASELINE breath sample: Remove the cap from the mouthpiece of the blue BASELINE bag. Instruct the patient to take a deep breath, hold their breath for 4 to 5 seconds and then exhale directly into the mouthpiece of the blue BASELINE breath bag until completely full. If the bag is not full, repeat step b. If the patient has not held their breath for 4-5 seconds or does not fill the bag completely, there is a possibility that a test result will not be obtainable. Replace the cap on the bag mouthpiece and firmly press until it clicks and is securely locked into place. The bag is not fully closed if the cap does not click into place. Not fully closing the bag may cause the breath sample to slowly leak out. Administering the test drink: Give the prepared test drink to the patient. Ensure that the patient drinks the solution through the provided straw. The patient, including pediatric patients 3 years of age and older, regardless of age and body weight, must drink the solution within two minutes and consume the entire amount. Start the timer for 15 minutes. After the patient finishes drinking the solution, record the present time plus (+) another 15 minutes in the Time to Fill field on the gray POST INGESTION bag. Collection of the POST INGESTION breath sample: Fifteen minutes after the administration of the test drink (but not later than 20 minutes after administration) remove the cap from the mouthpiece of the gray POST INGESTION bag. Instruct the patient to take a deep breath, hold their breath for 4 to 5 seconds, and then exhale directly into the mouthpiece of the gray POST INGESTION bag until it is full. If the bag is not full, repeat step b. Note: If the patient has not held their breath for 4-5 seconds or does not fill the bag completely, there is a possibility that a test result will not be obtainable Replace the cap on the bag mouthpiece and firmly press until it clicks and is securely locked into place. Note: The bag is not fully closed if the cap does not click into place. Not fully closing the bag may cause the breath sample to slowly leak out. Storage of Breath Sample Bags for future measurement: Assure both filled Breath Sample Bags are correctly labeled, and all fields are complete for future identification. Place both filled Breath Sample Bags (the blue BASELINE bag and the gray POST INGESTION bag) into the provided sample transport bag. Until analyzed, Breath Sample Bags should be stored at room temperature (15°C to 30°C, 59°F to 86°F), protected from direct sunlight and sharp objects. Refrain from applying any external pressure on the Breath Sample Bags. 2.6 Interpretation of Results and Retesting Refer to the BreathID system device labeling for additional details. A negative result does not rule out the possibility of H. pylori infection. False negative results can occur with this procedure. If clinical signs suggest H. pylori infection, retest with a new sample or an alternate method. A false positive test may occur due to urease associated with other gastric spiral organisms observed in humans, such as Helicobacter heilmanni . A false positive test could occur in patients who have achlorhydria. False negative test results may be caused by: Ingestion of antimicrobials or bismuth preparations within two weeks prior to performing the breath test. Ingestion of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) within two weeks prior to performing the breath test. If a negative result is obtained from a patient ingesting a PPI within two weeks prior to the breath test, the results cannot be considered indicative of the absence of urease associated with H. pylori, and the test should be repeated two weeks after discontinuing the PPI treatment. A positive result for a patient on a PPI could be considered as indicative of the presence of urease associated with H. pylori. Post-treatment monitoring of H. pylori should be performed after at least six weeks of treatment for H. pylori infection. An earlier assessment may give false results. 2.1 Dosage and Administration Overview IDkit Hp One or IDkit Hp Two contain the same drug product, 75 mg 13 C-urea tablet and 4 g Citrica (citric acid) for oral solution and follow the same drug preparation and administration instructions. IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two are to be administered only by trained personnel as ordered by a licensed healthcare practitioner, using the BreathID system device that as identified in the BreathID system device labeling, is intended for use with IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two.

Adverse reactions
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are discussed in the Warning and Precautions section of the labeling: Hypersensitivity Reactions [see Warning and Precautions ( 5.1 )] Adult Patients: The most common adverse reactions (incidence >0.3%) using the IDkit Hp included nausea, throat burning, and lightheadedness. ( 6.1 ) Pediatric Patients: The most common adverse reactions (incidence >1.5%) using the IDkit Hp included vomiting. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Meridian Bioscience Corporation at 1-800-543-1980 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. Clinical Trials Experience and Adverse Reactions in Adult Patients The safety of the IDkit Hp was evaluated in 465 adult patients who participated in two clinical trials (Trial 1 and Trial 2). All patients used the IDkit Hp Two kit for initial diagnosis and post-treatment monitoring of H. pylori infection. The most commonly observed adverse reactions associated with the use of the IDkit Hp were nausea (0.6%), throat burning (0.4%), and lightheadedness (0.4%). Clinical Trials Experience and Adverse Reactions in Pediatric Patients The safety of the IDkit Hp was evaluated in one multi-center, non-randomized, open-label study (Trial 3). A total of 53 pediatric patients, 3 to less than 18 years of age, were enrolled in the study and used the IDkit Hp Two. The only adverse reaction reported was vomiting (2%). 6.2 Post-marketing Experience In addition to adverse reactions reported from clinical trials, the following adverse reactions have been identified during post-marketing use of the IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two based on patient and test administrator reports. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of unknown size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Gastrointestinal: Nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea General: Sweating, throat pain, malaise Immune: Anaphylactic reaction Neurologic: Dizziness, headache 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

Special populations
8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS Pediatric Use: The safety and effectiveness of IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two has not been established in pediatric patients less than 3 years of age. ( 8.4 ) 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Published data from other single oral dose 13 C-urea breath test kits containing urea and citric acid have not demonstrated a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. There are no available data on the use of IDkit Hp One or IDkit Hp Two use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. There are no animal data that meet current standards for nonclinical developmental toxicity studies. Based on available literature, no significant developmental or reproductive toxicities were observed in nonclinical studies with urea or citric acid. A single oral dose of 13 C-urea and citric acid at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) are unlikely to pose a significant developmental or reproductive risk, since humans typically have higher circulating levels of urea, and citric acid exposure from the test is within the range of normal dietary intake. The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defects, loss, or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of the components of IDkit Hp One or IDkit Hp Two in either human or animal milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. A single oral dose of 13 C-urea and citric acid at the MRHD is unlikely to pose a risk in breastfed infants since humans typically have higher circulating levels of urea, and citric acid exposure from the test is within the range of normal dietary intake. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for IDkit Hp One or IDkit Hp Two and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from IDkit Hp One or IDkit Hp Two or from the underlying maternal condition. 8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two have been established in pediatric patients 3 years of age and older. Use of IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two in pediatric patients is supported by two trials demonstrating clinical performance in adults along with a multi-center, non-randomized, open label study confirming the safety of the 13 C-urea substrate and the performance of the BreathID system device in pediatric patients [see Adverse Reaction ( 6.1 ) and Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )] . The safety and effectiveness of IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two have not been established in pediatric patients less than 3 years of age. 8.5 Geriatric Use Of the total number of IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two patients in clinical studies for detection of H. pylori , 74 (12%) were 65 to 74 years of age, and 38 (6%) were 75 years of age and older [see Clinical Studies ( 14 )] . No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between patients 65 years of age and older and younger adult patients, and other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger adult patients. 8.6 Gastrectomy Data is insufficient for recommending the use of IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two on patients with total or partial gastrectomy [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] .
Pregnancy
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Published data from other single oral dose 13 C-urea breath test kits containing urea and citric acid have not demonstrated a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. There are no available data on the use of IDkit Hp One or IDkit Hp Two use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. There are no animal data that meet current standards for nonclinical developmental toxicity studies. Based on available literature, no significant developmental or reproductive toxicities were observed in nonclinical studies with urea or citric acid. A single oral dose of 13 C-urea and citric acid at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) are unlikely to pose a significant developmental or reproductive risk, since humans typically have higher circulating levels of urea, and citric acid exposure from the test is within the range of normal dietary intake. The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defects, loss, or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.
Children and adolescents
8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two have been established in pediatric patients 3 years of age and older. Use of IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two in pediatric patients is supported by two trials demonstrating clinical performance in adults along with a multi-center, non-randomized, open label study confirming the safety of the 13 C-urea substrate and the performance of the BreathID system device in pediatric patients [see Adverse Reaction ( 6.1 ) and Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )] . The safety and effectiveness of IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two have not been established in pediatric patients less than 3 years of age.
Older adults
8.5 Geriatric Use Of the total number of IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two patients in clinical studies for detection of H. pylori , 74 (12%) were 65 to 74 years of age, and 38 (6%) were 75 years of age and older [see Clinical Studies ( 14 )] . No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between patients 65 years of age and older and younger adult patients, and other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger adult patients.

Clinical pharmacology
12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 12.1 Mechanism of Action IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two are administered using the BreathID system device, a non-invasive breath test that analyzes a breath sample before and after ingestion of 13 C- urea and citric acid. 75 mg 13 C-urea and 4. g citric acid is dissolved in water and administered orally to the patient. The presence of citric acid creates an acidic environment in the stomach and delays the gastric emptying of the ingested solution to the duodenum. These two characteristics facilitate the decomposition of the urea by H. pylori , if present. Thus, in the presence of urease produced by gastric H. pylori , 13 C-urea is decomposed to 13 CO 2 and NH 3 according to the following equation: The 13 CO 2 formed is absorbed into the blood and then exhaled in breath, enabling detection of elevated 13 CO 2 in H. pylori-positive patients. In H. pylori-negative patients, no significant production of 13 CO 2 occurs in the stomach, as there are no human enzymes capable of hydrolyzing urea under gastric conditions. equ2 12.2 Pharmacodynamics IDkit Hp One and IDkit Hp Two ( 13 C-urea and citric acid) have no therapeutic pharmacodynamic effects. It contains diagnostic agents 13 C-urea and citric acid that detects the presence of H. pylori based on bacterial urease activity in the gastric mucosa. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics Absorption Following oral administration of 13 C-urea 100 mg to 400 mg (1.33 to 4 times the highest approved recommended dosage) in 3 healthy subjects, the Tmax of 13 C-urea was around 30 minutes [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 )] . Elimination Metabolism In H. pylori -positive subjects, 13 C-urea is hydrolysed in the stomach by bacterial urease to 13 CO 2 and ammonia. Excretion Urea is eliminated predominantly by renal excretion. Specific Populations The pharmacokinetics of 13 C-urea are not expected to have clinically meaningful differences based on age (including geriatric and pediatric patients), sex, race, or ethnicity with respect to its activity as diagnostic agent. Gastrectomy Patients The performance and reliability of the test in gastrectomy patients have not been established. Drug Interaction Studies No formal drug interaction studies have been conducted. Antimicrobials, proton pump inhibitors, and bismuth preparations may affect H. pylori status or urease activity and interfere with test results [see Drug Interactions ( 7 )] . In vitro studies demonstrated that mouthwash, chewing gum, carbonated beverages, cigarette smoke, acetone, and alcohol had no clinically relevant effect on test results.

Nonclinical toxicology
13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY 13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility Carcinogenesis Carcinogenicity studies have not been conducted with 13 C-urea. No evidence of carcinogenicity of citric acid was observed in a 2-year study in male rats receiving doses up to 2,000 mg/kg/day. Single oral doses of urea and citric acid are not expected to be carcinogenic in humans. Mutagenesis Based on available literature, urea was negative in the Ames test and in vitro micronucleus assay in mouse lymphoma cells. In vitro and in vivo chromosomal aberration studies have demonstrated inconsistent results with urea, with limited study details available for comprehensive evaluation. Citric acid was also negative in the Ames test and in vitro chromosomal aberration assays. Impairment of Fertility The available nonclinical data are insufficient to determine whether 13 C-urea may have effects on fertility. Based on available literature, no significant effects on fertility were observed in nonclinical studies with citric acid. Single oral doses of urea and citric acid are not expected to impair fertility in humans.

Clinical studies in the label
14 CLINICAL STUDIES 14.1 IDkit Hp One Adult Patients Trial 1 was a prospective, open-label clinical trial conducted at two U.S. hospitals to assess the performance of the original BreathID test with the IDkit Hp One. The study was designed to assess the sensitivity and specificity of the test for determining the status of gastrointestinal infections with H. pylori compared to other methods (pre-therapy phase) and evaluate the ability of the system to monitor the efficacy of therapy for H. pylori (post-therapy phase). The study enrolled 315 adult patients in the pre-therapy phase. The post-therapy phase included 77 patients who had been positive for infection and had undergone eradication therapy at least four weeks prior. Patients were evaluated by at least two of the following diagnostic methods: histology, rapid urease test (RUT), and for post-therapy patients, an FDA-cleared urea breath test (UBT). For the pre-therapy phase, the performance of the BreathID test with the IDkit Hp One was compared to congruent results from two endoscopy biopsy-based methods (RUT and histology). Performance was also compared to each method individually. Table 2 shows the congruent results from the two endoscopy biopsy-based methods (RUT and histology) compared to the original BreathID results. Overall, the observed sensitivity of the original BreathID test with the IDkit Hp One was 100% (95% CI: 92.5; 100.0). Table 3 shows the comparison between the rapid urease test results and the BreathID results. Table 4 shows the comparison between the histology results and the BreathID results.

The study was designed to assess the sensitivity and specificity of the test for determining the status of gastrointestinal infections with H. pylori compared to other methods (pre-therapy phase) and evaluate the ability of the system to monitor the efficacy of therapy for H. pylori (post-therapy phase). Efficacy was measured based on the results of the BreathID system with a 5 DOB diagnostic cut-off compared against a composite reference method of two endoscopy biopsy-based methods (RUT and histology). The stability of breath samples in the collection bags was also assessed by analyzing samples up to 14 days apart. The study enrolled 196 adult patients for initial diagnosis and 76 post-therapy patients who were positive for infection and had completed eradication therapy at least six weeks prior to study recruitment. The study was conducted across 11 clinical sites in the United States and 2 clinical sites in Israel. For the pre-therapy phase, the performance of the BreathID system using IDkit Hp Two was compared to composite results from two endoscopy biopsy-based methods (RUT and histology). Performance was also compared to each method individually. Table 12 shows the composite result from RUT and histology compared to the BreathID system using IDkit Hp Two. Overall, the observed sensitivity of the BreathID system using IDkit Hp Two was 100% (95% CI: 90.6; 100.0).

The study was designed to assess the performance of the BreathID system and IDkit Hp One with nasal cannula to detect H. pylori utilizing a 5 delta over baseline (DOB) diagnostic cut-off compared to an FDA-cleared H. pylori stool antigen test. A total of 41 pediatric patients were enrolled in the study across 6 clinical sites. Table 11 presents the diagnosis as assessed by the BreathID system using IDkit Hp One compared to the assessment by an FDA cleared H. pylori stool antigen test.

The study was designed to assess the sensitivity and specificity of the test for determining the status of gastrointestinal infections with H. pylori compared to other methods (pre-therapy phase) and evaluate the ability of the system to monitor the efficacy of therapy for H. pylori (post-therapy phase). Efficacy was measured based on the results of the BreathID system with a 5 DOB diagnostic cut-off compared against a composite reference method of two endoscopy biopsy-based methods (RUT and histology). The stability of breath samples in the collection bags was also assessed by analyzing samples up to 14 days apart. The study enrolled 196 adult patients for initial diagnosis and 76 post-therapy patients who were positive for infection and had completed eradication therapy at least six weeks prior to study recruitment. The study was conducted across 11 clinical sites in the United States and 2 clinical sites in Israel. For the pre-therapy phase, the performance of the BreathID system using IDkit Hp Two was compared to composite results from two endoscopy biopsy-based methods (RUT and histology). Performance was also compared to each method individually. Table 12 shows the composite result from RUT and histology compared to the BreathID system using IDkit Hp Two. Overall, the observed sensitivity of the BreathID system using IDkit Hp Two was 100% (95% CI: 90.6; 100.0).
