Device Description

TRUEbalance Blood Glucose System

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) clearance letter for the TRUEbalance Blood Glucose System. It primarily addresses the FDA's determination of substantial equivalence, and therefore, does not contain the detailed information required to answer your prompt regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving device performance.

The letter explicitly states: "We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification... and have determined the device is substantially equivalent... You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act."

The accompanying "Indication for Use" statement (page 2 of the document) describes the intended use of the device but offers no performance data or study details.

Therefore, based solely on the provided text, I cannot extract the information required to populate the table or answer the specific questions about the device's acceptance criteria and the study that proves performance.

To answer your prompt, I would need access to the full 510(k) submission or at least the performance study section of that submission.

Dear Ms. DeVincent:

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).

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
