Intended Use
The CareSens N Voice Multi Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertips and alternative sites such as the forearm. palm, thigh, and calf. Alternative site. testing should be used only during steady-state blood glucose conditions. The system is intended for use outside the body (in virro) and is intended for multiple-patient use in professional healthcare settings as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control. The system is only used with auto-disabling, single use lancing device. It is not intended for use on neonates and is not for the diagnosis or screening of diabetes. The CareSens N Multi Blood Glucose Test Strips are for use with the CareSens N Voice Multi Blood Glucose Meter to quantitatively measure glucose in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertips and alternative sites. The meter has a speaking function but it is not intended for use by the visually impaired persons.
Device Description
The CareSens N Voice Multi Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS) consists of a multi use blood glucose meter, test strips, and control solutions with two different glucose concentrations ("Control A" and "Control B" ranges, sold separately). The CareSens N Voice Multi BGMS are based on an electrochemical biosensor technology (electrochemical). The System measures the glucose level in whole blood samples using a small electrical current generated in the test strips.
More Information

No
The document describes a standard electrochemical blood glucose monitoring system with a speaking function, but there is no mention of AI or ML technology being used for data analysis, interpretation, or any other function.

No
The device is described as a blood glucose monitoring system intended for quantitative measurement of glucose, which aids in monitoring the effectiveness of diabetes control. It is not intended for the diagnosis or screening of diabetes, nor does it treat or prevent disease.

No

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "It is not for the diagnosis or screening of diabetes." Its purpose is aiding in monitoring the effectiveness of diabetes control, not diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states the system consists of a multi-use blood glucose meter, test strips, and control solutions, which are all hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the system is intended for use outside the body (in vitro).
  • Measurement of Glucose in Blood: The system measures glucose in fresh capillary whole blood samples. This is a common type of in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Aid to Monitor Diabetes Control: The system is used as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control, which is a diagnostic purpose.

The description clearly aligns with the definition of an in vitro diagnostic device, which is used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Disinfection study was performed on the meter by an outside commercial testing service to evaluate effectiveness of disinfectant, CLOROX GERMICIDAL Wipes (EPA Reg. No: 67619-12), in preventing the spread of blood-borne pathogens, using hepatitis B virus (HBV). The results demonstrated complete inactivation of live virus inoculated on the materials of the meter. We have also demonstrated that 10,950 each of cleaning and disinfection cycles for meter with the same disinfectant designed to simulate 3 years of multiple-patient use has no effect on the performance or the external materials of the meter.

§ 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.

DeviceThe CareSens N Voice Multi Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS) consists
Descriptionof a multi use blood glucose meter, test strips, and control solutions with two
different glucose concentrations ("Control A" and "Control B" ranges, sold
separately).
The CareSens N Voice Multi BGMS are based on an electrochemical biosensor
technology (electrochemical). The System measures the glucose level in whole
blood samples using a small electrical current generated in the test strips.
Intended Use:The CareSens N Voice Multi Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for
the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood samples
drawn from the fingertips and alternative sites such as the forearm, palm, thigh,
and calf. Alternative site testing should be used only during steady-state blood
glucose conditions. The system is intended for use outside the body ( in vitro ) and
is intended for multiple-patient use in professional healthcare settings as an aid to
monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control. The system is only used with auto-
disabling, single use lancing device. It is not intended for use on neonates and is
not for the diagnosis or screening of diabetes.
The CareSens N Multi Blood Glucose Test Strips are for use with the CareSens N
Voice Multi Blood Glucose Meter to quantitatively measure glucose in fresh
capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertips and alternative sites.
Comparison to
the Predicate
DeviceThe candidate device and the predicate device consist of the same meter and test
strips. And the measurement principle, fundamental scientific technology,
operating ranges, and performance characteristics of the candidate device are the
same as those of the predicate device. However, they have separate names because
of the different indications for use (single- vs. multiple-patient use). Also, there
are some label changes made in accordance with the changed indications for use.
Type of TestQuantitative, Amperometric method, Glucose oxidase ( Aspergillus sp. )
Test PrincipleThe reagent on the test strip produces a small electrical current using glucose as a
substrate in the blood sample. The meter converts electrical current to glucose
concentration.
Summary of
Pre-cleaning
and DisinfectionThe device is intended for multiple patients use in a professional healthcare
setting. Disinfection study was performed on the meter by an outside commercial
testing service to evaluate effectiveness of disinfectant, CLOROX GERMICIDAL
Wipes (EPA Reg. No: 67619-12), in preventing the spread of blood-borne
pathogens, using hepatitis B virus (HBV). The results demonstrated complete
inactivation of live virus inoculated on the materials of the meter.
We have also demonstrated that 10,950 each of cleaning and disinfection cycles
for meter with the same disinfectant designed to simulate 3 years of multiple-
patient use has no effect on the performance or the external materials of the meter.
ConclusionBased on the submitted information in this premarket notification, the
candidate device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. Further,
the candidate device has met the performance, safety, and effectiveness of the
device for its intended use.
