Consumer Study (Accuracy)Capillary blood accuracy to satisfy system accuracy requirements (as defined above).Passed.> General user tests: 185/185 (100%) within ± 0.3 mmol/L (for ketone < 1.5 mmol/L - implicitly applies given all results fell within).> Trained user tests: 185/185 (100%) within ± 0.3 mmol/L (for ketone < 1.5 mmol/L - implicitly applies). Also, 100% of general users could use the device correctly and obtain accurate results.
Point-of-Care (POC) Test (Accuracy)Accuracy requirements met (as defined for system accuracy).Passed.> Capillary: 124/124 (100%) within ± 0.3 mmol/L for < 1.5 mmol/L; 12/12 (100%) within ± 20% for ≥ 1.5 mmol/L.> Venous: 121/123 (98.4%) within ± 0.3 mmol/L for < 1.5 mmol/L; 13/13 (100%) within ± 20% for ≥ 1.5 mmol/L.
Hematocrit EffectHematocrit biases to be within acceptable limits (specific thresholds are detailed in the results section, generally showing low bias).Passed. Biases were within specified ranges for different ketone intervals across 20-60% hematocrit. For example, -0.09 to 0.02 mmol/L at 0.0-0.8 mmol/L ketone, and percentage biases for higher concentrations (e.g., -15.02 to 8.73% at 5.5-6.5 mmol/L ketone).
Interference TestNo significant interference from listed substances. (Implicitly, results should not show significant bias).Passed. Differences observed are mostly small, suggesting acceptable performance in the presence of various interferents. For example, Acetaminophen showed a -5.4% to -8.3% difference in the 2.0-3.5 mmol/L range, while many others were much smaller. Specific acceptance thresholds for interference are not explicitly provided in the summary, but the conclusion implies acceptance.
Altitude TestNo significant difference from reference equipment at high altitudes (up to 10,000 feet).Passed. No systematic response to altitudes; not significantly affected by lack of atmospheric oxygen up to 10,000 feet (3,048m).
Operating Condition TestMeters operate normally with less than 0.03 mmol/L or 20% bias from reference results.Passed. Confirmed normal operation at 9 combined temperature-humidity conditions (10°C, 15°C, 30°, 40%, and 90% RH), with results showing bias less than 0.03 mmol/L or 20% from reference.

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

  • System Accuracy Test (Capillary Blood): 204 samples.
  • System Accuracy Test (Venous Blood): 204 samples.
  • Repeatability Test: 300 measurements (N=300 for each of 5 concentration levels). This suggests a large number of readings rather than 300 unique samples.
  • Intermediate Precision Test: 600 measurements (N=600 for each of 3 control levels).
  • Consumer Study: 185 general users.
  • Point-of-Care Test: 124 patients for capillary samples, 123 patients for venous samples.
  • Hematocrit Effect Test: 5 different hematocrit levels, 5 different ketone intervals, measured using 30 meters and 3 lots of strips.
  • Interference Test: 2 ketone concentrations, across 29 interferents, with 3 strip lots.
  • Altitude Test: Not specified in terms of distinct sample numbers, but tested.
  • Operating Condition Test: Not specified in terms of distinct sample numbers, but tested.

Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin of the data or whether the studies were retrospective or prospective. However, based on the nature of clinical evaluation, consumer studies, and POC tests involving patient samples and human participants, these are typically prospective studies. The company, i-SENS, Inc., is based in Seoul, Korea, suggesting the studies likely took place there or in a similar regulatory environment.

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

  • The document mentions "trained staff" and "Health Care Professionals" (HCPs) in the context of comparative measurements.
  • In the Consumer Study, results of general users are compared against "Rx Imola reference values" and "BKMS results obtained by trained staff."
  • In the Point-of-Care Test, "Health care professionals" (six members) performed tests, and "The study staff operates the reference equipment and modify the KetoSens Multi BKMS results are compared against the reference values."
  • The qualifications of these "trained staff" or "Health Care Professionals" are not explicitly defined (e.g., "radiologist with 10 years of experience"). Their role is to operate the reference equipment and/or the candidate device for comparison.

4. Adjudication Method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the Test Set

The document does not describe an adjudication method for the test set in the context of expert review or consensus, as would be typical for image-based diagnostic AI. For a quantitative measurement device, the "ground truth" is typically established by comparative measurement to a highly accurate reference method. Discrepancies are usually managed through statistical analysis rather than an adjudication process among human readers.

5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, If So, What Was the Effect Size of How Much Human Readers Improve with AI vs Without AI Assistance

This is not applicable as the device is a quantitative blood β-ketone monitoring system, not an AI-based diagnostic imaging tool that assists human readers. Therefore, an MRMC study and analysis of human reader improvement with AI assistance are not relevant to this device.

6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

The device is a standalone quantitative measurement system. Its performance (accuracy, precision) is evaluated independently against a reference standard (Rx Imola equipment). The human user's role is to operate the device correctly, consistent with its "intended to be used for the quantitative measurement" function. The consumer study and POC test assess the usability for target users (self-testing or HCPs), but the core performance data in the system accuracy tests represent the device's measurement capabilities.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (Expert Consensus, Pathology, Outcomes Data, etc.)

The ground truth for the quantitative measurement of β-ketone levels was established using a reference measurement procedure/equipment. Specifically:

  • "The accuracy of KetoSens is evaluated with clinical evaluation using capillary and venous blood samples... and with the standard measurement."
  • "KetoSens BKMS did not show significant difference with respect to the Rx Imola equipment, nor with different altitudes at all ketone concentrations."
  • In the Consumer Study and POC test, results were compared against "Rx Imola reference values."

Therefore, the ground truth is comparative measurement to a recognized laboratory reference method/instrument (Rx Imola).

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

The document describes performance evaluation (test set) studies but does not mention a 'training set' in the context of machine learning model development. This is because the KetoSens Blood β-Ketone Monitoring System is based on electrochemical biosensor technology, which relies on a chemical reaction to produce an electrical current proportional to the analyte, rather than an AI/ML algorithm that requires training data.

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

As the device does not employ an AI/ML algorithm requiring a 'training set,' this question is not applicable. The underlying principle is electrochemical, not data-driven machine learning.

6.1 Similarities and Differences

The candidate device and the predicate device (Ketone) are classified under 21 CFR 862.1435, which states: "A ketones (nonquantitative) est system is a device intended to identify ketones in urine and other body fluids. Identification of ketones and treatment of acidosis (a condition characterized by abnormally high acidity of body fluids) or ketosis (a condition characterized by increased production of ketone bodies such as acetone) and for monitoring patients on kets and patients with diabetes." The predicate device has the capacity to measure both glucose as well as {}- ketone in blood, whereas the can'y measures }- ketone. Substantial equivalence is claimed for the ketone measurement parameter of the predicate device since the of the devices are identical in terms of measuring ketone, and the indications only differ in glucose measuring capabilities between the candidate device and the predicate device.

The intended use for Ketone, operating principle, fundamental scientific technology of the candidate device. The list of similarities and differences between the candidate device and the predicate device are shown in Table 2:
