Intended Use
The EASYGLUCO Blood Glucose Monitoring System is used for the quantitative measurement of glucose level in whole blood as an aid in monitoring the effectiveness of diabetes management in the home and in clinical settings. The EASYGLUCO Blood Glucose Monitoring System is for testing outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use only). Testing sites include the traditional fingertip testing along with alternate site testing on the arm, palm, thigh, and calf.
Device Description
The EASYGLUCO Blood Glucose Monitoring System is an in vitro diagnostic device designed for measuring the concentration of glucose in whole blood, which is used with the EASYGLUCO Test Strips. The test principle is: This device is an in vitro diagnostic product intended for the measurement of glucose concentration in human blood. The principle of the test relies upon a specific type of glucose in the blood sample, the dehydrogenase glucose that reacts to electrodes in the test strip. The test strip employs an electrochemical signal generating an electrical current that will stimulate a chemical reaction. This reaction is measured by the Meter and displayed as your blood glucose result.

No
The description focuses on the electrochemical principle of glucose measurement and does not mention any AI or ML components.

No.
The device is an in vitro diagnostic device used for monitoring blood glucose levels, not for directly treating diabetes or its symptoms.

Yes
The device is described as an "in vitro diagnostic device" that performs "quantitative measurement of glucose level in whole blood as an aid in monitoring the effectiveness of diabetes management." This directly indicates its diagnostic function.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "in vitro diagnostic device designed for measuring the concentration of glucose in whole blood" and relies on a "Meter" and "test strip" which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Explicit Statement: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section clearly states: "The EASYGLUCO Blood Glucose Monitoring System is for testing outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use only)."
  • Device Description: The "Device Description" section also explicitly states: "The EASYGLUCO Blood Glucose Monitoring System is an in vitro diagnostic device designed for measuring the concentration of glucose in whole blood..." and "This device is an in vitro diagnostic product intended for the measurement of glucose concentration in human blood."
  • Nature of the Test: The device measures a substance (glucose) in a biological sample (whole blood) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health status (diabetes management). This is the fundamental definition of an in vitro diagnostic test.

Dear Mr. Letko

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820).
