No
The document describes a blood glucose meter that integrates data gathering features into the device using an off-the-shelf PDA. There is no mention of AI or ML technology being used for glucose measurement or data analysis.
No.
The device measures glucose levels but does not directly treat or provide therapy for a medical condition.
Yes
Explanation: The device "quantitatively measure[s] the concentration of glucose in whole blood samples" and is used by healthcare professionals and persons with diabetes. Measuring glucose levels for diagnosis or monitoring is a diagnostic function.
No
The device description explicitly states that the Accu-Chek Inform Meter is a modification of a physical blood glucose meter (Accu-Chek Advantage Meter) and incorporates an off-the-shelf PDA built into its body. This indicates the presence of hardware components beyond just software.
Yes, based on the provided information, the Accu-Chek Inform Meter is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The primary intended use is to "quantitatively measure the concentration of glucose in whole blood samples." This involves testing a biological sample (whole blood) outside of the body (in vitro) to obtain diagnostic information (glucose concentration).
- Sample Type: It specifically mentions using "whole blood samples," which are biological specimens.
- Diagnostic Purpose: Measuring glucose concentration in blood is a key diagnostic tool for managing diabetes mellitus.
The fact that it's used by both healthcare professionals and persons with diabetes mellitus further supports its role in diagnosis and monitoring related to a medical condition.

Device Description
The Accu-Chek Inform system is an addition to the Accu-Chek brand of blood glucose monitors that incorporates the fundamental scientific technology currently found in the Accu-Chek Advantage Meter. The Accu-Chek Inform Meter is a modification to the Accu-Chek Advantage Meter that involves integrating the AccuData GTS unit's data gathering features into the meter. The modification does not affect the device's intended use. The Accu-Chek Inform Meter may be used in conjunction with the same test strips indicated for use with the Accu-Chek Advantage Meter, and the test principle described on the following page is not affected by the design modifications. This modification can be accomplished due in part to the availability of palm-type computers (PDA). Our product designers modified the Accu-Chek Advantage Meter by building into its body an off-the-shelf PDA. The PDA module enabled our designers to integrate the AccuData GTS unit's data gathering features into the meter itself. The Accu-Chek Inform Meter was designed to be convenient and easy to use.

| Indications for use | The device is indicated for professional use and over-the-

| Fundamental
scientific
technology | The measurement is accomplished by applying a controlled
voltage between two identical electrodes embedded within
the test strip, which causes the reduced mediator formed
during the glucose dehydrogenase reaction to be reconverted
to an oxidized mediator. This generates a small current that
is measured by the meter. The meter's software converts this
electrical currency signal into a blood glucose value. The
system's correlation to a comparative laboratory method is
established by the manufacturer; each test strip vial is
packaged with a calibration code key that the user insets into
the meter to ensure an appropriate calibration. | No change |
