Intended Use
The EZ Smart-168 Blood Glucose Test Strips are used with the EZ Smart-168 Blood Glucose Meter for quantitatively measuring glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole blood obtained from the fingertip. The EZ Smart-168 Test Strips are for testing outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use). The EZ Smart-168 Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for use in the home and in professional settings to monitor blood glucose levels in persons with diabetes.
Device Description
Based on an electrochemical biosensor technology and the principle of capillary action, EZ SMART-168 Glucose Monitoring System only needs a small amount of blood. Capillary action at the end of the test strip draws the blood into the action chamber and your blood glucose result is precisely and is displayed in 10 seconds, and 28 blood glucose result memory.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on electrochemical biosensor technology and capillary action for glucose measurement, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
This device is an in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) device used to measure glucose levels, not to provide therapy or treatment.

Yes

The device "quantitatively measur[es] glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole blood" to "monitor blood glucose levels in persons with diabetes," which is a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description explicitly mentions "EZ Smart-168 Blood Glucose Meter" and "EZ SMART-168 Glucose Monitoring System," which are hardware components. The test strips also rely on electrochemical biosensor technology and capillary action, indicating a physical, non-software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Explicit Statement: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section clearly states: "The EZ Smart-168 Test Strips are for testing outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use)."
  • Definition of IVD: An in vitro diagnostic device is a medical device that is used to perform tests on samples such as blood, urine, or tissues to detect diseases or other conditions. This device fits this definition as it tests blood for glucose levels.
  • Purpose: The device is intended for "quantitatively measuring glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole blood obtained from the fingertip," which is a diagnostic measurement performed outside the body.

§ 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.
