Test principle
When glucose reacts with the reagents on the test strips, an electrical current is produced. The current is proportional to the glucose concentration in the blood sample. The meter will calculate glucose concentration based on the current measured. -
Format of results
The device can show results either in "mg/dL" or "mmol/L". The factory set default for the meter is mg/dL.
5
-
Composition and levels of control material
The control solution is made up of D-glucose, Viscosity Modifier, and Preservatives. Control solution Level 1, Level 2 or 3 are available and sold separately. -
User maintenance needs
The device is recommended to be stored in its case, in a clean dry place at 35.6 to 86 F (2 to 30℃).
Replacing the battery will not reset the stored testing results; however users need to reset the device's date and time after installing or replacing the batteries.
-
Features of device
Apart from the existing measurement features and user interface of the device's predicate, the device is featured with Bluetooth mediated data transmission functionality which wirelessly transfers the latest test result to an APP run on an iOS device every time when a test is performed successfully. In this operational scenario, the user needs to install an APP to his/her iOS device to receive the test result transmitted from the meter. The meter does not play any message during the data transmission, but user can check the APP on his/her iOS device to confirm if the test result is received. The meter still keeps the test results in the memory after transmitting. -
Features designed to minimize the risk of bloodborne pathogen transmission among patients
Users are recommended to clean and disinfect the meter and lancing device at least once per week following the Cleaning and Disinfections in device's user guide to prevent the spread of infectious diseases. Clorox® Bleach Germicidal Wipes (EPA Reg. No. 67619-12) have been shown to be safe for use with the meter and lancing device and that these wipe should be used for both cleaning and disinfection.

-
Error messages
The meter is featured with the following error messages for users to understand the device's status so as to take appropriate measures. -
E 1: The temperature is too low.
-
E 2: The temperature is too high.
-
E 3: Battery Low.
-
E 4: Memory damaged.
-
E_5: The strip is wet or used.
-
E_6: Error in meter or strip.
-
E_7: The blood sample is not sufficient.
E_8: Fail to reset date and time after installing or changing batteries in device's "Start Up" mode.
HI: The glucose level is too high.
LO: The glucose level is too low.
- User prompts
To perform a test, a glucose test strip is inserted into the top of the meter. When a small drop of blood is applied to the end of the test strip, glucose reacts with the reagents on the test strips, producing an electrical current that is proportional to the blood glucose concentration in the blood sample. The blood 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 meter's LCD screen.
✓ Modified Device and Comparison:
The test strips, control solutions, lancing device, and lancets are identical to previously cleared devices. The fundamental scientific technology of the NuvoMed Wireless, Model
7
BGM-6/0352 remains unchanged from the legally marketed predicate device, SuperCheck Plus, Model 5228-S (K141351).
For the proposed device device, the modifications from the cleared SuperCheck Plus, Model 5228-S (K141351), include the following:
- New PCB with new MCU (micro controller unit) providing the same excitation voltage (bias voltage applied to the test strip) and the same reaction current sensing mechanism as those of the device's predicate (K141351).
- Change to positive display LCD and reposition of the control test flag ("cotr") on meter display (see Fig.3)
The device's LCD is changed from negative display LCD to positive display LCD. This original control test flag ("C") was displayed via a 7-segment font to the right of the three large 7-segment fonts for glucose reading display; for the proposed device, the control test flag ("cotr") is used instead.
Image /page/7/Picture/5 description: The image shows a blood glucose meter display. The display shows the unit of measurement as mg/dL. There is also a blood drop icon, a battery icon, and the text "cotr". The brand name "NuvoMed" is printed at the bottom of the image.
Image /page/7/Picture/6 description: The image shows a close-up of a digital display, likely from a medical device such as a blood glucose meter. The display reads "mg/dL" at the top, indicating a measurement unit for blood glucose levels. A droplet symbol is present, commonly associated with blood testing, and the number "0" is prominently displayed, possibly indicating a reading or a setting. The time "11:30 AM" is visible at the bottom, along with a battery icon, suggesting the device's power level.
Fig.3. Meter display while performing the control test
- Change to Bluetooth mediated data transmission and removal of RS232 phone jack port for cable data download to PC
Owing to the meter 's Bluetooth mediated data transmission functionality supporting Bluetooth 4.0 and BLP, the NuvoMed Wireless, Model BGM-6/0352 has the capability to wirelessly transfer the latest test result to an APP run on an iOS device every time when a test is performed successfully. In this operational scenario, the user needs to install Samico Health APP to his/her iOS device to receive the test result transmitted from the meter. The meter does not play any message during the data transmission, but user can check the APP on his/her iOS device to confirm if the test result is received. The meter still keeps the test result in the meter.
With this new feature, the original RS232 phone jack port for cable data download to PC is therefore removed.
- . Addition of an Error message, E 8 The proposed device requires that when users first install the batteries or every time they
8
replace the device's batteries, the device (meter) will enter "Start Up" mode. Users will see an "S" in the center and the "SET" at the right upper corner of meter screen. Users must set up correct date, time and measurement unit in "Start Up" mode before they can use the meter. As a result of this new feature, an Error message, E 8 is added to indicate the state when users fail to reset date and time correctly after installing or changing batteries.
Image /page/8/Picture/1 description: The image is a black and white diagram of a device with dimensions labeled. The diagram shows a rectangular device with a large number 5 in the center. The word "SET" is in the upper right corner. The dimensions of the device are labeled as 58.00 (V.A.) on the right side and 36.00 (V.A.) on the bottom.
