Intended Use
The CONTOUR®NEXT EZ blood glucose nonitoring system is an over the counter (OTC) device utilized for self-esting by persons with diabetes at home for the quantiative measurement of glucose in whole patient use only, and should not be shared. The CONTOUR® NEXT EZ blood glucose monitoring system is indicated for use with fresh fingertip capillary whole blood samples. The clinical utility of this device is to aid in monitoring the effectiveness of your diabetes control program. The CONTOUR® NEXT EZ blood glucose monitoring system is not intended for use for screening for diabetes mellitus and is not intended for use on neonates. The CONTOUR® NEXT test strips are intended for self-testing by persons with diabetes for the quantitative measurement of glucose in whole blood samples from 20 to 600 mg/dL.
Device Description
The Contour Next EZ Blood Glucose Meter consists of a small handheld blood glucose meter that utilizes dry reagent test strips for the measurement of glucose in capillary whole blood by persons with diabetes. Liquid control solution is used to check the performance of the system. The meter, together with the test strips and control solutions, is referred to as the Contour Next EZ Blood Glucose Monitoring System. The chemical principle utilized for both the predicate and modified devices is based on measurement of electrical current caused by the reaction of glucose in the blood with chemicals on the reagent strip. The blood sample is drawn into the tip of the reagent strip through capillary action. Glucose in the sample reacts with FAD glucose dehydrogenase (FAD-GDH) enzyme on the reagent strip. The electrons generated by this reaction are shuttled to an electrode by a mediator chemical, producing a current that is proportional to the glucose in the sample. After a fixed reaction time, the glucose concentration in the sample is calculated and displayed.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on electrochemical measurement and standard analytical and clinical performance metrics, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms.

No.
This device is a diagnostic tool used for monitoring blood glucose levels, not a therapeutic device that treats or prevents a disease. Its clinical utility is to "aid in monitoring the effectiveness of your diabetes control program," which is a diagnostic purpose.

Yes

The device aids in monitoring the effectiveness of a diabetes control program by measuring glucose levels, which is a form of diagnostic information used to manage the condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of a "small handheld blood glucose meter" which is a hardware component. The summary also describes the use of "dry reagent test strips" and "liquid control solution," which are also physical components of the system.

Based on the provided information, the CONTOUR®NEXT EZ blood glucose monitoring system is indeed an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "quantitative measurement of glucose in whole patient use only" and "to aid in monitoring the effectiveness of your diabetes control program." This involves testing a biological sample (whole blood) outside of the body to provide information about a patient's health status.
  • Device Description: The description details how the device works by measuring the electrical current caused by the reaction of glucose in the blood with chemicals on a reagent strip. This is a classic example of an in vitro diagnostic method.
  • Sample Type: It uses "fresh fingertip capillary whole blood samples," which is a biological sample.
  • Clinical Utility: The clinical utility is to "aid in monitoring the effectiveness of your diabetes control program," which is a diagnostic purpose.

Therefore, the CONTOUR®NEXT EZ blood glucose monitoring system fits the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
