Device Description

The SuperCheck Plus Blood Glucose Monitoring System (Model 5228-S) (also applicable to: SuperCheck Plus Multi Blood Glucose Monitoring System (Model 5228-M)) is a product kit consisting of a blood glucose meter, test strips, control solutions, a lancing device, lancets, and instructions for use.

The data download functionality is optionally available and sold separately. To perform a test, when a small drop of blood is applied to the end of the test strip, glucose reacts with the reagents on the test strip, producing an electrical current that is proportional to the blood glucose concentration. The glucose concentration is calculated by the glucose meter and is based on the electrical current measured. The quantitative glucose concentration (in mg/dL or mmol/L) is displayed on the display screen.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and supporting studies for the SuperCheck Plus Blood Glucose Monitoring System, based on the provided document:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria for accuracy are not explicitly stated in a single consolidated table in the document, but rather described in the text, referencing ISO 15197 for precision and generally implying agreement with a reference method (YSI 2300) for overall system accuracy. The document states that the system "met the acceptance criteria" without detailing the specific criteria for system accuracy (e.g., percentage within a certain range). For precision, ISO 15197 is mentioned, which typically has performance targets based on CV (Coefficient of Variation) or absolute differences. I will infer based on the stated performance.

2. Sample Sizes Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Precision/Reproducibility (Test Set):
    • Repeatability Precision: 5 whole blood concentrations were tested. The number of replicates per concentration is not specified, but typically this involves multiple measurements (e.g., 10-20 replicates). The document doesn't specify if the samples were from a particular country. It's an in-vitro lab study.
    • Intermediate Precision: 3 levels of control solutions, 3 lots of test strips, and 10 meters were tested for 10 days. This is an in-vitro lab study.
  • Linearity (Test Set): 11 concentration levels of capillary whole blood samples (spiked). No specific provenance mentioned, assumed to be laboratory-prepared samples.
  • Operating Temperature and Humidity Study: Not specified, assumed to be laboratory test samples.
  • Analytical Specificity: Not specified, assumed to be laboratory test samples.
  • Hematocrit Study: 9 hematocrit levels at 3 spiked target glucose concentrations. Not specified, assumed to be laboratory test samples.
  • Altitude Study: Venous blood samples spiked to 3 glucose concentrations. Performed at 33 ft and 10,744 ft. Not specified, assumed to be laboratory test samples.
  • Sample Volume Study: Blood samples spiked to 3 glucose concentrations, tested from 0.5µL to 3.0µL. Not specified, assumed to be laboratory test samples.
  • System Accuracy Study (Clinical Test Set): A total of 151 subjects were recruited. The document does not specify the country of origin, but it is a "clinical" study, implying prospective participant recruitment.
  • User Performance Study (Clinical Test Set): 129 participants. The document implies these were lay users who could read English, suggesting a prospective recruitment in an English-speaking country, but no specific country is mentioned.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

  • For the System Accuracy Study, the ground truth was established by a reference method, the YSI 2300 glucose analyzer. This is a highly accurate laboratory instrument, and its operation would typically be managed by trained laboratory technicians or clinical chemists. No "experts" in the sense of clinicians or radiologists are involved in establishing this type of ground truth.
  • For the User Performance Study, the ground truth for comparison was also likely the YSI 2300 or another laboratory reference method, against which the lay user's results from the device were compared. The "experts" here would be the lab personnel operating the reference method.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not applicable. The ground truth for glucose measurements is typically established by objective laboratory reference methods (like the YSI 2300), not through expert consensus or adjudication in the way medical imaging diagnosis might be.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

No. This type of study (MRMC) is typically done for diagnostic imaging devices where human readers interpret images, sometimes with and without AI assistance, to measure the change in diagnostic accuracy. This document describes a blood glucose monitoring system, which is a quantitative measurement device, not an imaging device. The "User Performance Study" evaluates lay users testing themselves, which is a form of human-in-the-loop performance, but it's not an MRMC study comparing AI vs. no AI assistance for diagnosis.

6. Standalone Performance

Yes, the analytical performance studies (precision, linearity, specificity, hematocrit, altitude, sample volume, meter reliability, EMC/electrical safety) are all forms of standalone performance of the device, without human-in-the-loop interpretation being the primary focus. The "System Accuracy Study" also represents the standalone analytical performance of the device when operated under controlled clinical conditions, comparing its results directly to a gold standard, without focusing on the impact of user interaction beyond the collection and application of the sample.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

  • For most analytical performance studies (precision, linearity, analytical specificity, hematocrit, altitude, system accuracy): Reference method measurements, specifically the YSI 2300 glucose analyzer.
  • For meter reliability and EMC/electrical safety: Adherence to engineering specifications and relevant ISO/IEC standards.
  • For infection control: Disinfection efficacy testing against a specific pathogen (HBV) and robustness testing of materials.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not explicitly mention a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI. This device is a blood glucose meter, which typically operates on electrochemistry principles, not an AI or machine learning algorithm that requires a training set. If there were any internal calibrations or algorithms developed during the device's design, the data used for those would be part of internal R&D and not typically disclosed as a "training set" in this type of regulatory document.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

As no training set (in the AI/ML sense) is mentioned or implied for this type of device, this question is not strictly applicable. The device's operational parameters would be based on underlying physical and chemical principles, calibrated using known glucose concentrations and validated against reference methods, rather than "trained" on a dataset with established ground truth.

    1. Non-Clinical Performance Characteristics
      A brief description of analytical performance for these studies listed below is included in this submission.
  • a. Precision/Reproducibility
    Precision/Reproducibility evaluations were conducted by performing repeatability precision (within-run precision) and intermediate precision (total precision) based on ISO 15197. Repeatability precision was performed on 5 whole blood concentrations (30-50 mg/dL, 51-110 mg/dL, 111-150 mg/dL, 151-250 mg/dL, 251-400 mg/dL). For glucose concentration was less than 100 mg/dL, the test results of CV values were not more than 7%. For glucose concentration was more than or

{8}------------------------------------------------

equal to 100mg/dL, the test results of CV values were less than 5%. Intermediate precision was performed on 3 levels of control solutions (30-50mg/dL, 96-144mg/dL and 280-420mg/dL) with 3 lots of test strips and 10 meters for 10 days. The test results of CV values were less than 5%.

b. Linearity/assay reportable range

The linearity study was performed using capillary whole blood samples. The capillary samples were spiked to 11 concentration levels from 20-600 mg/dL. Linear regression showed a correlation of r-0.9998 compared to the reference method (YSI analyzer) over the range 21 mg/dL to 592 mg/dL.

The measuring range of the SuperCheck Plus (5228-S) and SuperCheck Plus Multi (5228-M) Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems is 20-600 mg/dL.

c. Operating Temperature and Humidity Study

The study confirmed the operation of the SuperCheck Plus (5228-S) and SuperCheck Plus Multi (5228-M) Blood Glucose Monitoring System for temperature range of 10-40°C(50-104°F) and the relative humidity range of 20-80%, noncondensing.

d. Analytical specificity

Nine endogenous substances and thirteen exogenous substances were analyzed at two concentrations of glucose and interferent according to NCCLS EP 7. For glucose concentrations is less than 100mg/dL, the average difference between the tested and the control sample is within 10 mg/dL. For glucose concentrations is more than or equal to 100 mg/dL, the average difference between the tested and the control sample is within 10%. Results are presented in the table below:

The accuracy study of EDTA anticoagulated whole blood samples used with SuperCheck Plus (5228-S) and SuperCheck Plus Multi (5228-M) Blood Glucose Monitoring System compared to results obtained using a capillary sample collected in heparin with a reference method (YSI glucose analyzer) were evaluated. The result of the study was shown that SuperCheck Plus (5228-S) and SuperCheck Plus Multi (5228-M) Blood Glucose Monitoring System produce accurate glucose results when the blood samples are collected in EDTA tube.

  • e. Hematocrit Study
    Nine hematocrit levels of 20, 25, 30, 35, 42, 45, 50, 55 and 60% at 3 spiked target glucose concentrations were evaluated. The study showed no significant hematocrit effect from 20%-60% for samples with concentration levels over dynamic range (20-600 mg/dL).

  • f. Altitude Study
    Venous blood samples were spiked to 3 glucose concentration (30-50 mg/dL, 96-144 mg/dL, 280-420 mg/dL). The samples were performed at 33 ft and 10,744 ft. Values were compared to the YSI 2300 (reference

{10}------------------------------------------------

method). The results demonstrated that altitudes up to 10,744 ft have no significant effect on blood glucose measurement from the SuperCheck Plus (5228-S) and SuperCheck Plus Multi (5228-M) Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems.

g. Sample volume study

The blood volume test was performed from 0.5µl to 3.0ul by using the blood samples spiked to produce 3 glucose concentrations (30-50 mg/dL, 96-144 mg/dL, 280-420 mg/dL) for verifying the performance of test strip.

The results showed that error message was displayed for insufficient sample volume of 0.7ul; therefore the SuperCheck Plus (5228-S) and SuperCheck Plus Multi (5228-M) Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems claim that sample volume of ≥0.7ul produces accurate blood glucose results.

h. Meter reliability study

The reliability test was performed before and after challenge including mechanical resistance to drop and vibration and protection against exposure to temperature and humidity levels.
