Intended Use
The Easy Talk Blood Glucose Monitoring System, is intended for use in the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood from the finger and the forearm. It is intended for use by healthcare professionals and people with diabetes mellitus at home and as an aid in monitoring the effectiveness of a diabetes control program. It is not intended for the diagnosis or screening for diabetes mellitus, nor for use with neonates. The alternative site testing (forearm) in this system can only be used during steady-state blood glucose conditions. This system contains a speaking function that provides audible test results for users with low vision.
Device Description
The Easy Talk Blood Glucose Monitoring System, consists of a blood glucose meter, test strips, control solutions, lancing device, and commercially available lancets. The meter has a bilingual speaking feature that provides audible test results for users with low vision. The forearm may be used as an alternate site for capillary blood.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on standard blood glucose monitoring technology with a speaking function for accessibility, and there are no mentions of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No.
The device is a diagnostic tool for monitoring blood glucose levels, not a device that directly treats or prevents a disease.

No

Justification: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" explicitly states, "It is not intended for the diagnosis or screening for diabetes mellitus..." indicating it is not a diagnostic device.

No

The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as a blood glucose meter, test strips, control solutions, and a lancing device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood." This is a measurement performed in vitro (outside the body) on a biological sample (blood).
  • Device Description: The device consists of a blood glucose meter, test strips, and control solutions, all components typical of an IVD system used for analyzing biological samples.
  • Function: The core function is to measure a substance (glucose) in a biological fluid (blood) to aid in monitoring a medical condition (diabetes).

The definition of an IVD generally includes devices intended for the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device clearly fits that description for monitoring diabetes.

Dear Ms. Chu

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.
