The device description and intended use clearly state that the device receives and transmits data for review, making no interpretations, evaluations, or recommendations. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.
No.
The IDEAL LIFE Pod transmits health data (blood glucose, weight, blood pressure) but does not make interpretations, evaluations, medical judgments, or recommendations for treatment, nor is it a substitute for medical care. Its purpose is to aid in reviewing and evaluating historical data for health care management, not to provide therapy.
No.
The device is described as a "wireless modem accessory" that transmits data from other medical devices to a website for review. The "Intended Use" explicitly states that "The IDEAL LIFE Pod makes no interpretation, evaluation, medical judgment or recommendations for treatment." This indicates it does not perform a diagnostic function itself, but rather facilitates the transmission of data from diagnostic devices.
No
The device description explicitly states the IDEAL LIFE Pod is a "wireless modem accessory" and mentions testing for "radiofrequency interference and emissions," indicating it is a hardware device with software components, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, the IDEAL LIFE Pod is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the Pod receives data from other IDEAL LIFE devices (which could be IVDs, like the GlucoManager™) and transmits it for review and evaluation of historical test results. It explicitly states that the Pod "makes no interpretation, evaluation, medical judgment or recommendations for treatment." This is a key characteristic that differentiates it from an IVD, which is used to diagnose or aid in the diagnosis of a condition.
- Device Description: The description reinforces that the Pod is a "wireless modem accessory" that transmits data. It doesn't perform any diagnostic testing itself.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: The document emphasizes that the Pod is for reviewing and tracking data, not for performing the actual diagnostic tests (blood glucose, blood pressure, weight).
The IDEAL LIFE Pod acts as a data transmission and management tool for information generated by other devices, rather than performing an in vitro diagnostic test itself.

510(k) Summary IDEAL LIFE Pod™ ILP 0001
D. SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE SUMMARY
The IDEAL LIFE Pod Model ILP 0001, Version 2, is substantially equivalent to the Intended Use of the In Touch Diabetes Management Software (K984527) and both the Intended Use and technology of the IDEAL LIFE Pod Model ILP 0001, Version 1 (K060504). Differences with the new Pod have been demonstrated not to affect safety or effectiveness of the device, using software design controls, V&V testing, and user testing of the device. The decision algorithm brings us to a determination of Substantial Equivalence, as defined in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
E. TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS
The technological characteristics of the IDEAL LIFE Pod Model ILP 0001 and the predicate Pod are extremely similar, having the same software and hardware design and controls and basic functionality.
F. TESTING
Hardware, software, and the manufacturing processes are the same as the predicate Pod. Software controls and validation and verification testing have demonstrated that the software changes do not affect device performance. Since the Pod is a wireless device, the radiofrequency interference and emissions have been tested and the Pod complies with appropriate FCC Standards. User testing and historical experience with the Pod have demonstrated that the Pod can be used in the intended setting.
G. CONCLUSIONS
IDEAL LIFE INC. has demonstrated through its comparison of characteristics with the predicate devices and software and hardware testing, that the ILP Model 0001, Version 2 is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

Dear Dr. Horwitz:
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.
