Intended Use
This product is to be used in a diagnostic laboratory setting, by qualified laboratory technologists, for the quantitative determination of fructosamine in human serum. The determination of fructosamine is most commonly performed for the evaluation of glycemic control in diabetes. Fructosamine values provide an indication of glucose levels over the preceding 2-3 weeks. A higher fructosamine value indicates poorer glycemic control. This reagent set is intended for in vitro diagnostic use only.
Device Story
Fructosamine Reagent Set, Calibrator, and Controls are in vitro diagnostic reagents used in clinical laboratories. The system measures fructosamine levels in human serum samples to assess glycemic control over the preceding 2-3 weeks. Qualified laboratory technologists perform the assay; results are interpreted by clinicians to monitor diabetes management. Higher fructosamine concentrations correlate with poorer glycemic control. The device provides quantitative data to assist in clinical decision-making regarding patient glucose regulation.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
In vitro diagnostic reagent set, calibrator, and controls for serum fructosamine quantification. Chemical assay principle. Intended for professional laboratory use.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the quantitative determination of fructosamine in human serum to evaluate glycemic control in patients with diabetes. Used by qualified laboratory technologists in a diagnostic laboratory setting.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A glycosylated hemoglobin assay is a device used to measure the glycosylated hemoglobins (A1a , A1b , and A1c ) in a patient's blood by a column chromatographic procedure. Measurement of glycosylated hemoglobin is used to assess the level of control of a patient's diabetes and to determine the proper insulin dosage for a patient. Elevated levels of glycosylated hemoglobin indicate uncontrolled diabetes in a patient.

Dear Mr. Walters:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we 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). 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
