Device Description
The EosHealth, Inc. In Touch® BGMS, is an Over-The-Counter (OTC) system designed for the self-monitoring of blood glucose by persons with diabetes in home settings to aid in their diabetes management. The system consists of the following components:
- In Touch® Blood Glucose Meter (In Touch® meter)
- In Touch® Blood Glucose Test Strips ●
- In Touch® Lancing Device ●
- In Touch® Lancets ●
- In Touch® Level 1 Control Solution
- In Touch® Level 2 Control Solution
- AC Adapter (wall charger) and USB Charger
- Carrying Case
- . In Touch® Data Management System (optional accessory to the In Touch® BGMS)
The In Touch® meter is an Over-The-Counter (OTC), handheld device that along with the primary components of the system, monitors glucose in the blood to help with the management and treatment of diabetes. The In Touch® meter also incorporates additional features to aid in self-monitoring of blood glucose including tables and logs, graphs, and a pedometer.
The test principle is based on electrochemical biosensor technology and the principle of capillary action. The electrical current generated by the reaction of glucose with the reagent of the strip is measured by the meter and is displayed as the corresponding blood glucose level. The strength of the current produced by the reaction depends on the amount of glucose in the blood sample. These blood glucose measurements are obtained through the use of disposable test strips.
These blood glucose levels are displayed on the screen and stored in In Touch® meter's memory. In addition to the immediate read-out on In Touch® meter's display, the readings can also be transmitted securely over the GSM cellular network to a secure server. The use on the GMS connection also provides the ability for direct feedback from the server to the In Touch® meter.

8
The In Touch® Blood Glucose Monitoring System's Indications for Use statement is similar to the predicate device with minor variation. The device also has similar technological characteristics as the predicate device with minor variation. Both devices have similar firmware and utilize the same blood glucose test strips, lancing devices, lancets, and control solution. The data collection software functionality, communication method with data
9
management software functionality, communication method with the central server, implementation method of collecting data from the test strips, monitor software, connectivity, and communication are similar to the predicate device with minor variation. The subject and predicate devices use exactly the same firmware embedded in the same microcontroller that recognizes the same blood glucose strip, and no other, the same algorithm to calculate blood glucose, and all corrections including those for hematocrit.
Although the In Touch® device differs with a more vibrant and easier to use user interface, uses plain language rather than "device" codes, easy to find control buttons, icons, and a 16-bit color touch display, it is very similar in all other electronic, and technological characteristics related to blood glucose measurements of the predicate devices to assure equivalence. Performance data are provided to support this. The results of all non-clinical and clinical performance testing demonstrate substantial equivalence.
10. Non-Clinical Performance Characteristics
Non-clinical testing was conducted on the In Touch® and to show substantial equivalence to the predicate device:
- Software verification and validation testing (IEC 62304, FDA Guidance, 5/2005)
- Electromagnetic Compatibility Study (ISO 15197, IEC 61326-1)
- . Electrical Safety testing (IEC 61010-1, IEC 61010-2-101, IEC 62133, UL 61010-1, CSA C22#61010-1)
- Cleaning and Disinfection testing (FDA Guidance, 1/2014)
- Precision Evaluation (ISO 15197)
- Linearity Evaluation (ISO 15197)
- Accuracy Evaluation (non-user) (ISO 15197)
- Hematocrit Evaluation (ISO 15197)
- Interference Study (CLSI EP7-A2)
- Operating Temperature and Humidity Study (ISO 15197)
- Robustness Evaluation (FDA Guidance, 1.2014)
- FLEX Studies: Vibration and Drop Testing (FDA Guidance, 1/2014) ●
- Human Factors Studies (FDA Guidance, 6/2011)
- Transport Packaging (ISTA Standard 2A)
Testing demonstrated the In Touch® Blood Glucose Monitoring System meets all relevant standards requirements. Internal verification and validation testing confirms that the product specifications are met which are equivalent in design and technological characteristics to the predicate device.
