Intended Use
The Ascensia BRIO™ Blood Glucose Monitoring System is for the Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose as an adjunct to the care of person with diabetes. The Ascensia BRIO™ Blood Glucose Meter is used with Ascensia® EASYFILL™ Blood Glucose Test Strips and ASCENSIA® EASYFILL™ CONTROL SOLUTIONS (Low, Normal, and High) for the measurement of glucose in whole blood. The Ascensia BRIO™ Blood Glucose Monitoring System is an Over-the-Counter (OTC) device used by persons with diabetes and by healthcare professionals in home settings and in healthcare facilities. The Ascensia® Brio™ Blood Glucose Monitoring System is indicated for use with fingertip capillary whole blood specimens. The frequent monitoring of blood glucose is an adjunct to the care of persons with diabetes.
Device Description
The Ascensia BRIO™ Blood Glucose Monitoring System consists of an electrochemical method-based meter and reagent sensor (test strips) designed for testing glucose by persons with diabetes or by healthcare professionals in the home or in healthcare facilities. The Ascensia BRIOTM Blood Glucose Monitoring System test is based on the measurement of electrical current caused by the reaction of glucose with the reagents (glucose oxidase) on the electrode of the test strip. It is conceptually the same as other blood glucose monitoring products available for blood glucose testing. There are 50 test strips in a plastic bottle. The system is specific for glucose and has been referenced to plasma glucose values from fingerstick capillary samples. The System has a linear response to glucose from 30-550 mg/dL.

Not Found

No
The description focuses on a standard electrochemical blood glucose monitoring system and does not mention any AI or ML components. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No
The device is a monitoring system that measures blood glucose levels; it does not provide treatment or therapy.

Yes
The device is described as a "Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose" system, and its purpose is to measure glucose in whole blood to aid in the care of persons with diabetes. This function directly fits the definition of a diagnostic device as it provides information for the diagnosis or monitoring of a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states the system consists of a meter and test strips, which are hardware components, in addition to the software.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for the "Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose" and the "measurement of glucose in whole blood." This involves testing a biological sample (blood) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health status (glucose levels related to diabetes).
  • Device Description: The description details an "electrochemical method-based meter and reagent sensor (test strips)" that measure the reaction of glucose in the blood. This is a classic description of an in vitro diagnostic device.
  • Anatomical Site: It specifies the use of "fingertip capillary whole blood specimens," which are biological samples collected from the body for testing.

These points align directly with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device, which is used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or screening purposes.

§ 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.
