The device is intended for measurement and monitoring, not for treating any condition.
Yes
The device is intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood, which is a diagnostic measurement used to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control.
No
The device description explicitly lists hardware components: test strips, a battery-operated meter, and control solution. It describes a physical process involving applying blood to a strip inserted into a meter.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Explicit Statement: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states: "Testing is done outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use)."
- Definition of IVD: An in vitro diagnostic device is a medical device intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood and tissue samples, derived from the human body, in order to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring or compatibility purposes. This device fits this definition as it tests blood outside the body to monitor glucose levels.
- Device Description: The description details a system that analyzes a biological sample (blood) using reagents and a meter to provide a quantitative measurement of a substance (glucose) within that sample. This is characteristic of an IVD.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Liberty™ Blood Glucose System is intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood. Testing is done outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use). It is indicated for use in the home by persons with diabetes as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control.
Liberty™ Blood Glucose Meter is intended for use with Liberty™ Blood Glucose Strips for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood. Testing is done outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use). It is indicated for use at home by persons with diabetes as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control.
Liberty™ Blood Glucose Strips are intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood when used with the Liberty™ Blood Glucose Meter. Testing is done outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use). It is indicated for use at home by persons with diabetes as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control.
Liberty™ Control Solution is an aqueous glucose solution for use with the Liberty™ Blood Glucose System. It is used as a quality control check to verify the accuracy of the blood glucose test result. The Liberty™ Control Solution is intended for use in the validation of the performance of the Blood Glucose System by providing a test solution with a known range of glucose. A control test that falls within the acceptable range indicates the user's technique is appropriate and the test strip and meter are functioning properly.

Device Description
The Liberty™ Blood Glucose Monitoring System consists of the following elements: test strips; a battery operated, portable, compact meter; and a control solution.
Instrument Operating Principle: photometric
Reagent Test Principle: glucose oxydase
The Liberty™ System is based on photometric biosensor technology. The test strip is first inserted into the meter and the meter is switched on by pressing the "ON" button. A code number will appear on the display that should match the code on the vial of strips. An icon showing a flashing drop near the end of a test strip will appear on the display to prompt the user to apply a drop of blood. When a drop of blood is applied to the top of the strip at the mesh-filled target area, it flows into the membrane and starts the measurement. This is indicated on the display by a moving bar. After approximately 30 seconds, a glucose reading is displayed on the meter. The reading is stored in the meter memory with a date and time.
The Liberty™ System uses a photometric test strip that includes glucose oxidase to generate a color reaction that is proportional to the concentration of glucose in the sample.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The non-clinical and clinical studies carried out on the Liberty™ System and the predicate device (Accu-Chek Simplicity) demonstrate that the system is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and is safe and effective for its intended use.
Capillary blood study: N = 116 patients, Linear regression: Y = 0.930, Correlation coefficient = 0.941, Range = 35 - 470 mg/dL
Consumer study: N = 116 different patients, linear regression results: y = 0.872, Correlation coefficient = 0.921, Range = 28 to 390 mg/dL
Precision (Within-run precision, N=20 per level):
Control solution: Medium Mean 163 mg/dl, sd 11,3, CV 99 % of the 2 lots are in "A" region

§ 862.1345 Glucose test system.
(a)
Identification. A glucose test system is a device intended to measure glucose quantitatively in blood and other body fluids. Glucose measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders including diabetes mellitus, neonatal hypoglycemia, and idiopathic hypoglycemia, and of pancreatic islet cell carcinoma.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device, when it is solely intended for use as a drink to test glucose tolerance, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.
