No
The description focuses on data management, analysis, and report generation using retrospective data, with no mention of AI or ML techniques.
No
The device is a data management software that analyzes historical CGM data and creates reports; it does not make treatment recommendations or directly intervene in a patient's health condition. It is intended to assist in the review, analysis, and evaluation of historical data, making it an accessory rather than a therapeutic device.
No
The device is described as software that assists in the review, analysis, and evaluation of historical CGM data, and it explicitly states that it "does not make treatment recommendations." This indicates it is a data management and reporting tool rather than a diagnostic device that interprets data to identify a disease or condition or guide diagnosis.
Yes
The device is described as "Software" and its functions are solely related to data management, analysis, and reporting of historical CGM data. It does not include any hardware components or interact with the patient's body directly.
Based on the provided information, the STUDIO on the Cloud Data Manager Software is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- STUDIO Software Function: The STUDIO software's intended use is to review, analyze, and evaluate historical CGM data. This data is generated by a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) device, which measures glucose levels in the interstitial fluid (a fluid found between cells).
- Data Source: The software uses retrospective data stored on the CGM device. It does not perform any tests on biological samples taken directly from the patient.
- Purpose: The purpose is to support effective diabetes management by providing insights into glucose trends and patterns based on previously collected data. It explicitly states it does not make treatment recommendations.
While the software is an accessory to a medical device (the CGM), its function is data management and analysis, not performing a diagnostic test on a biological sample. Therefore, it falls outside the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

A usability study was performed with Forty Four (44) lay and professional users with varying demographic characteristics (age, sex, and education level). The intent of the study was to verify software ease of use and label comprehension. The study determined that 96% of assigned tasks were able to be completed by users without assistance.
Bench Testing was perfomed using data from forty (40) G4 PLATINUM receivers. CGM data were uploaded from the receivers using the STUDIO on the Cloud Data Management Software and were compared to the same data downloaded to a PC. All data fields were reported to be 100% accurate.

Q. Identified Potential Risks and Required Mitigations
Identified Risk | Required Mitigation |
---|---|
Device malfunction (e.g., incorrect data | |
analysis, etc.) | General controls, including design controls |
Identified Risks and Required Mitigations Table
Device malfunction (e.g., incorrect data analysis, etc.) may lead to diabetes mismanagement and poor glycemic control. This risk can be adequately mitigated by general controls, including design controls and restriction as a prescription device that must comply with 21 CFR 801.109.
R. Benefit/Risk Analysis
Summary | |
---|---|
Summary of | |
the Benefit(s) | The STUDIO on the Cloud Data Management Software is convenient to use since it |
analyzes and correlates several sources of diabetes management-relevant information | |
(e.g. user glucose levels, meals, insulin delivery, and exercise data) into one software | |
program. The data sorting and presentation functions of the STUDIO on the Cloud | |
Data Management Software provide patients and their doctors access to a more | |
complete clinical picture of a patient's current disease, as well as of the impact of past | |
diabetes management decisions on a patient's glucose levels. The convenience of | |
using the device should translate into better record-keeping compliance by the patient, | |
and the greater access provided to data should assist the patient and their physician | |
with the identification of the patient's unique glucose excursion triggers; together, | |
these benefits should allow patients and their doctors to make rational modifications to | |
the patient's diabetes management plan, with the goal of achieving better glycemic | |
control. | |
Summary of | |
the Risk(s) | Device malfunction may lead to diabetes mismanagement and poor glycemic control. |
Decisions made based on incorrect data or faulty analyses may put the patient at risk of more frequent acute episodes of hypoglycemic and/or hyperglycemic excursions. | |
These episodes increase the likelihood of hospitalization and/or death. Chronic poor glycemic control could lead to irreversible diabetes-related sequelae (e.g. retinopathy, neuropathy, nephropathy and arteriosclerosis). These risks can be adequately mitigated by the sponsor's verification and validation and design control activities which ensure that the risk of malfunction is very low. |
Continuous glucose meters are only approved for tracking and trending; therefore another risk is that users could modify their current insulin dosage based directly on current CGM glucose values provided by the STUDIO on the Cloud Data Management Software. This risk is mitigated by product labeling which states that users should not make changes in their treatment program without talking to their healthcare providers. In addition, only retrospective CGM glucose values are provided by the software, so real-time CGM glucose values are not readily available to users. Risks are mitigated by general controls, including requiring design controls and restriction as a prescription device that must comply with 21 CFR 801.109. |
| Summary of
Other Factors | Patients are willing to tolerate the low risk associated with use of the STUDIO on the Cloud Data Management Software because they benefit from a substantial improvement in the analysis and correlation of retrospective continuous glucose monitoring information (e.g. glucose values over time, paired with meal, exercise, and insulin bolus information), which can be used by the patients and their doctors to assist in making adjustments to their diabetes management program, with the goal of reducing glucose excursions and maintaining proper glycemic control. |
| Conclusions
Do the
probable
benefits
outweigh the
probable risks? | Yes. The device is likely to provide benefits in improved diabetes management with a low associated risk. |

S. Conclusion:
The information provided in this de novo submission is sufficient to classify this device into class I, exempt from premarket notification requirements subject to the limitations in 21 CFR 862.9, under regulation 21 CFR 862.2120. As a software containing device, this device type is also subject to design controls. FDA believes that applicable general controls, including design controls, provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the device type.
