The Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System consists of the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose meter and the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose test strips. The Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for use in the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertips. The system is intended for in vitro diagnostic, point of care use in endocrinology clinics and nursing facilities, for multiple patient use. This system should only be use, auto-disabling lancing devices for drawing finger stick capillary blood.
The system is not intended for the screening or diagnosis of diabetes mellitus but is indicated for use in determining dysglycemia.
The system is not intended for use in acute care or hospital settings.
The system is not intended for neonatal use.
The system is for prescription use only.
The Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System consists of a battery-powered meter, disposable test strips Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Test Strips, and control solutions. The Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Test Strips utilizes biosensor technology for the quantitative determination of glucose concentrations in capillary blood samples. Glucose in the blood reacts with the reagent in the test strip, and this produces a small electric current (amperometry). The strength of this current is proportional to the concentration of glucose in the blood. The meter measures this current and calculates the patient's glucose level.
The Assure® Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System underwent extensive performance testing to demonstrate its safety and effectiveness.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
| Test Category | Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | Within-run Precision: %CV ≤ 4.2% | Within-run Precision: Met %CV ≤ 4.2% across all glucose levels (30-400 mg/dL) and all three test strip lots. For example, for Lot 280-2, %CV ranged from 2.1% to 3.1%. For Lot 280-4, %CV ranged from 1.9% to 2.9%. For Lot 280-5, %CV ranged from 2.3% to 2.7%. |
| Intermediate Precision: Not explicitly stated with a numerical criterion in the document for all levels, but the document states "Intermediate precision met the overall acceptance criteria." | Intermediate Precision: All Lots Combined results showed %CV ranging from 1.4% to 2.1% across glucose levels from 30-400 mg/dL. | |
| Linearity | All measurements to fall within ±15% at <75 mg/dL and ±12% at ≥75 mg/dL from reference. Data analyzed according to CLSI EP6-A. | Linearity: All three test strip lots (Type 280-1, Type 302-1, Type 302-2) showed 100% of measurements falling within ±15% at <75 mg/dL and ±12% at ≥75 mg/dL from the YSI 2300 reference. R² values were 0.9988, 0.9993, and 0.9999 respectively, indicating a strong linear correlation. |
| Hematocrit | For glucose levels ≥ 75 mg/dL, average bias to comparator method <5% with no individual value exceeding 10%. For glucose levels <75 mg/dL, absolute bias with 95% confidence intervals justified for clinical impact. | Hematocrit: For glucose levels ≥75 mg/dL, the results met the target acceptance criteria. For glucose levels <75 mg/dL, the absolute bias ranged from -1.5 to 2.2 mg/dL, which was considered clinically insignificant. Supports use across the claimed hematocrit range of 10-70%. |
| Interference | For each concentration of potential interferent, the average percent bias and 95% confidence interval of test sample to untreated control sample must be within ±10% at each glucose level. | Interference: Not explicitly stated for all 47 substances for all glucose levels, but the study notes that it was evaluated at clinically relevant concentrations and reported the "Highest concentration with no interference" for each substance. For example, Acetaminophen showed no interference at 20 mg/dL, Ascorbic acid at 4 mg/dL. The document implies these results met the acceptance criteria by stating "The results were compared to the following target acceptance criteria: for each concentration of potential interferent the average percent bias and 95% confidence interval of test sample to untreated control sample must be within ±10% at each glucose level." However, it explicitly states, "Patients with high doses of Vitamin C intake (ascorbic acid; blood levels higher than . 4 mg/dL) may yield inaccurate results. Patients undergoing oxygen therapy may yield inaccurate results." |
| Cleaning & Disinfection Viral Elimination Effectiveness | Not explicitly stated in the provided text, but implies effective viral elimination. | Cleaning & Disinfection Viral Elimination Effectiveness: PDI Super Sanicloth Wipes were proven effective in eliminating duck hepatitis B virus (a surrogate for human hepatitis B virus) from all tested surfaces of the device. |

| Intermittent Sampling | The system should provide accurate glucose measurements or an error when the sample is intermittently applied. | Intermittent Sampling: The results demonstrated that the system "provides accurate glucose measurements or an error when the sample is intermittently applied." |
| Environmental/System Operating Conditions | Not explicitly stated, but implies performance within and outside claimed operating range. | Environmental/System Operating Conditions: A study was performed to assess performance under various temperature and humidity conditions, covering and exceeding the claimed operating range. The studies were designed to represent actual use conditions. |
| Altitude | Performance should be unaffected by altitudes up to the claimed range. | Altitude: Performance was demonstrated to be unaffected by altitudes up to and equal to 10,000 feet. |
| Error Codes for Samples Outside Measuring Range | All meters to display "Lo" at glucose levels <10 mg/dL, and all meters to display "HI" at glucose levels >600 mg/dL. | Error Codes for Samples Outside Measuring Range: All results met the acceptance criteria, displaying "Lo" for <10 mg/dL and "HI" for >600 mg/dL. |
| Error Codes and Flagging | For each error code/flag, the appropriate conditions must trigger it, and conditions that should not trigger it must not. | Error Codes and Flagging: For each error code/flag listed (E-1 to E-10, E6, E5, E0, Control Solution Flag, Temperature Flag), the appropriate conditions triggered the error, and non-triggering conditions did not, verifying proper functionality. |
| Short Sample Detection | The system should either produce an error or an accurate result when a short sample is applied. | Short Sample Detection: The system demonstrated it will either produce an error or an accurate result when short sampled (using sample volumes from 0.1 to 10 uL). |
| Sample Perturbation | The system should either provide an error or an accurate result when the sample is perturbed. | Sample Perturbation: The system demonstrated it would either provide an error or an accurate result when the sample was perturbed (by flicking the test strip, flipping the meter, or wicking the sample away). |
| Testing with Used Test Strip | All used test strips shall produce the E1 error upon re-insertion, and no glucose measurement results should be provided. | Testing with Used Test Strip: All test results met the acceptance criteria, producing the E1 error upon re-insertion of used test strips. |

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and the Data Provenance:
-
Precision (Within-run): 1500 tests (500 results on each of 3 lots)
-
Precision (Intermediate): 1500 tests (50 tests per lot per day over 10 days for 3 lots)
-
Linearity: 165 results (5 replicates per level for 11 glucose concentrations, across 3 test strip lots)
-
Clinical Accuracy (Method Comparison): Capillary blood samples from 396 patients were measured.
- Site #1 (Nursing/Skilled Nursing Facility): 130 patients
- Site #2 (Endocrinology Clinic, California): 165 patients
- Site #3 (Endocrinology Clinic, Georgia): 101 patients
-
Accuracy at Extremes: 100 samples (50 samples <80 mg/dL, 50 samples >300 mg/dL).
The provenance for precision, linearity, hematocrit, and interference studies appears to be laboratory-controlled (venous whole blood spiked or glycolyzed). The clinical study data provenance is prospective, collected in the United States (Massachusetts, California, Georgia) at one nursing/skilled nursing facility and two endocrinology clinics.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and the Qualifications of Those Experts:
The document mentions that the YSI Model 2300 Glucose Analyzer was used as the reference standard (comparator method) for establishing ground truth in the linearity, clinical accuracy, and accuracy at extremes studies. The YSI 2300 is a laboratory instrument, not a human expert. Therefore, no human experts were used to establish the ground truth for these quantitative measurements.
For the usability study, "POC operators" were involved in evaluating the system, but they weren't establishing a "ground truth" for glucose levels. Their qualifications are not specified beyond being "Point-of-Care operators."
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
Not applicable, as the ground truth for glucose measurements was established by a laboratory reference instrument (YSI 2300), not through expert consensus requiring adjudication.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done:
No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This device is a Blood Glucose Monitoring System, and its performance is evaluated by comparing its readings directly to a laboratory reference standard (YSI 2300), not by assessing how human readers improve with AI assistance.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done:
Yes, the core performance studies (precision, linearity, hematocrit, interference, environmental, altitude, error codes, short sample detection, sample perturbation, used test strip detection) evaluate the standalone performance of the Assure® Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System (meter and test strips) by comparing its output directly to a reference method or evaluating built-in error detection mechanisms.
The clinical accuracy study also compares the device's measurements (obtained by POC operators, but the measurement itself is algorithmic) against the YSI 2300 reference, effectively demonstrating its standalone accuracy in a clinical setting.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:
The primary ground truth used for quantitative glucose measurements was reference laboratory method data, specifically from the YSI Model 2300 Glucose Analyzer.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:
The document does not specify a separate "training set" or its size. This is typical for a medical device cleared via a 510(k) pathway, especially for a blood glucose monitoring system, where development often involves calibration and verification/validation against reference methods rather than supervised machine learning model training.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:
Not applicable, as a separate training set and its ground truth establishment are not discussed in the provided submission. The device's underlying principles (electrochemical biosensor) are well-established, and its "training" or calibration would typically be an inherent part of its manufacturing process, verified through performance testing against reference standards as described.

4. Device Description
The Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System consists of a battery-powered meter, disposable test strips Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Test Strips, and control solutions. The Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Test Strips utilizes biosensor technology for the quantitative determination of glucose concentrations in capillary blood samples. Glucose in the blood reacts with the reagent in the test strip, and this produces a small electric current (amperometry). The strength of this current is proportional to the concentration of glucose in the blood. The meter measures this current and calculates the patient's glucose level.
Test principle:
The sample (whole blood) is drawn by capillary action at the tip of the test strip. As depicted in the chemical reactions listed below in Figure 1, glucose in the sample reacts with glucose oxidase (GOD) and Hexaammineruthenium (III) chloride in the test strip. This produces Hexaammineruthenium (II) chloride. Hexaammineruthenium (II) chloride is produced in proportion to the glucose concentration of the blood sample. Oxidation of the Hexaammineruthenium (II) chloride produces an electric current. The meter converts the current to the glucose concentration and displays it as the test result.
B-D-glucose + Hexaammineruthenium (II) chloride -> D-Glucono-δLactone + Hexaammineruthenium (II) chloride Hexaammineruthenium (II) chloride Electrical Charge Hexaammineruthenium (III) chloride + e-

7. Summary of Performance Testing
Performance testing was conducted on the proposed Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System in accordance with the FDA guidance Blood Glucose Monitoring Test Systems for Prescription Point-of-Care Use, 2016 and 2020 using final product. Performance testing demonstrated that the device meets the performance requirements for its intended use.
PRECISION
Within-run and intermediate precision for the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System were evaluated to assess imprecision of the system across the glucose measuring range and under normal use conditions.
Briefly, within-run precision was evaluated using venous whole blood spiked with high concentration glucose solution or allowed to glycolyze to 5 glucose concentrations. These whole blood samples were tested on at least 10 vials of 3 test strip lots using at least 10 Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Meters. Test strips were taken from the same bottle for each meter. This resulted in 500 results on each lot, for a total of 1500 tests.
Results for the within-run precision testing are shown in Table 2, mean results for each glucose level are presented for each lot with associated standard deviation (SD), percent coefficient of variation (%CV) and the 95% confidence intervals.

Table 2: Within-Run Precision Results for Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System
The data in Table 2 demonstrate the within-run precision met the overall acceptance criteria for %CV ≤ 4.2% for the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System.
Intermediate precision was evaluated using control solution adjusted to the same 5 glucose concentrations. Multiple operators tested the control solution over 10 days using at least 10 bottles of 3 test strip lots and 10 Assure Titanium meters. Test strips were taken from the same bottle for each meter. This resulted in 50 tests per lot per day for a total of 1500 tests.
Results for intermediate precision testing for all lots are shown in Table 3. Mean results for each glucose level are presented with associated standard deviation (SD), percent coefficient of variation (%CV) and the 95% confidence intervals.

Table 3: Intermediate Precision Results for Assure Titanium
The data in Table 3 show that Intermediate precision met the overall acceptance criteria.
LINEARITY
Linearity for the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System was evaluated using glucose concentrations across the claimed glucose measuring range and data was analyzed according to CLSI EP6-A: Evaluation of the Linearity of Quantitative Measurement: A Statistical Approach; An Approved Guideline.
Briefly, linearity was evaluated using venous whole blood spiked with high concentration glucose solution or allowed to glycolyze to eleven evenly spaced glucose concentrations. The target glucose concentrations were verified by the YSI 2300 reference analyzer. These whole blood samples were tested on 3 test strip lots using 5 Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Meters. This resulted in 5 replicates per level per lot tested, for a total of 165 results.
Data analysis included linear regression with regression equation and coefficient of determination (R2) presented for each lot tested and presented in Table 4.
| Lot | Linear Regression Equation | R2 |
|---|---|---|
| Type 280-1 | y = 1.0079x + 3.9485 | 0.9988 |
| Type 302-1 | y = 1.0063x + 3.3727 | 0.9993 |
| Type 302-2 | y = 0.9902x + 2.1839 | 0.9999 |
Table 4: Linear Regression Equation for All Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System Lots
Data analysis showed that linearity testing met the acceptance criteria in that all measurements fell within the ranges shown in Table 5, demonstrating linearity of the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System across the claimed measuring range of 10-600 mg/dL.

| Type 302-2 | 100% |
{11}------------------------------------------------
HEMATOCRIT
The effect of hematocrit on the performance of the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System was evaluated to establish that it can be safely used across the claimed hematocrit range. Briefly, percent hematocrit effect on Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System results was evaluated using venous whole blood adjusted to five glucose levels and thirteen hematocrit levels spaced 5% apart spanning the claimed hematocrit range.
The target acceptance criteria are as follows: For glucose levels ≥ 75 mg/dL, the average bias to comparator method should be <5% with no individual value exceeding 10%. For glucose levels <75 mg/dL, the absolute bias should be reported with 95% confidence intervals justified for clinical impact.
The results for glucose levels ≥75 mg/dL met the target acceptance criteria. In addition, the absolute bias for results for glucose levels <75 mg/dL ranged from -1.5 to 2.2 mg/dL, an error so small that this error would not impact patient safety. The results of the Hematocrit Evaluation study support the safe use of the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System across the claimed hematocrit range of 10- 70% in the intended use population.
INTERFERENCE
The effect of potentially interfering endogenous and exogenous substances was evaluated on the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System. The study was designed using whole blood samples spiked or allowed to glycolyze to 3 target ranges. Eachinterferent was tested at clinically relevant concentrations. For each concentration of potential interferent, average percent bias to untreated control samples and 95% confidence intervals were calculated. If interference was observed additional testing was performed to determine the concentration at which the interference starts to occur. Table 6 lists potentially interfering substances and the maximum concentrations tested and the highest tested concentration at which no interference was observed.

CLEANING AND DISINFECTION VIRAL ELIMINATION EFFECTIVENESS
The cleaning and disinfection viral elimination effectiveness study for the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System was conducted by Microbac Laboratories (Sterling, VA).
The elimination of duck hepatitis B virus, as a surrogate for human hepatitis B virus, using the disinfection product, PDI Super Sanicloth (EPA# 9480-4), has been evaluated with the constituent surface materials of the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System.
The PDI Super Sanicloth Wipes were proven to be effective in eliminating the duck hepatitis B virus from all tested surfaces.
CLEANING AND DISINFECTION ROBUSTNESS/DURABILITY
Cleaning and disinfection durability testing were performed to demonstrate that the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System can withstand multiple cleaning and disinfection cycles to validate a three-year use life or "warranty" for the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System. The number of cleaning and disinfection cvcles performed for this testing was based ten cleaning and disinfection cycles per day for three years for a total of 10.950 cycles (10 cycles/day * 365 days/year * 3 years = 10,950).
To demonstrate that the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System is not adversely affected by the recommended cleaning and disinfection cvcles applied over a three-vear use life. five meters were cleaned and disinfected 10,950 times with PDI Super Sanicloth Wipes (EPA# 9480-4) and examined to detect any performance issues and signs of physical deterioration.
A physical inspection and performance testing of each of the five meters was performed at the beginning of the study, midway through the study (approximately 5,480 cleaning anddisinfection cvcles), and after the 10.950 cleaning and disinfection cycles were complete. The five meters were inspected at the three time points to determine if there were signs of physical and/or performance deterioration.
The venous blood performance met the acceptance criteria at each time point. All external material passed physical and performance inspection after cleaning and disinfecting 10.950 times with PDI Super Sanicloth Wipes.
INTERMITTENT SAMPLING
Intermittent sampling occurs when a short sample is applied to a test strip, a glucose measurement begins, and more sample is applied to the test strip before the glucose measurement is complete. Briefly, intermittent sampling was evaluated using venous whole blood spiked with high concentration glucose solution or allowed to glycolyze to three concentrations: 50-65 mg/dL, 100-120 mg/dL, 200-250 mg/dL. The glucose levels were verified by the YSI 2300 reference analyzer.
{14}------------------------------------------------
The results demonstrated that the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System provides accurate glucose measurements or an error when the sample is intermittently applied to an Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Test Strip.
ENVIRONMENTAL/SYSTEM OPERATING CONDITIONS
A study to assess the performance of the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System when used under various operating temperature and humidity conditions was performed. These studies were designed to represent actual use conditions experienced by Blood Glucose Monitoring The tested temperature and humidity ranges covered the system operating System users. conditions and also included ranges outside the claimed operating range. The testing incorporated eight extreme temperature and humidity combinations (high temperature/low humidity; high temperature/high humidity; low temperature/low humidity; low temperature/high humidity) within and outside the claimed operating range.
ALTITUDE
ARKRAY evaluated the effect of altitude on the performance of the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System. Three lots of Assure Titanium test strips were tested with venous blood samples at three glucose levels at two altitude conditions. Sea level (203 feet) and high altitude (10.000 feet) were tested using a custom-made pressure chamber to create the effects of altitude.
The results demonstrated that the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System performance is unaffected by altitudes up to and equal to an elevation of 10,000 feet.
ERROR CODES FOR SAMPLES OUTSIDE THE MEASURING RANGE
ARKRAY performed analyses to demonstrate that the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System provides the appropriate error codes when measured glucose concentrations are outside of the Blood Glucose Monitoring System's claimed measuring range. Three lots of Assure Titanium test strips were tested with venous blood samples at two glucose levels (<10 and >600 mg/dL). The acceptance criteria were as follows: All meters to display "Lo" at glucose levels <10 mg/dL, all meters to display "HI" at glucose levels >600 mg/dL.
All results met the acceptance criteria demonstrating that the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System will supply the user with the appropriate error codes when measuring blood glucose concentrations outside of the claimed measuring range.
ERROR CODES AND FLAGGING
ARKRAY performed evaluations to demonstrate that the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System provides error codes and flags according to the design specification. Please see Table 7 below for details on the error codes/flags evaluated.
{15}------------------------------------------------
| Table 7: Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System Error Codes and Flags | |
|---|---|
| Error Code | Description |
| E-1 | Test strip was previously used. Retest with a new test strip. |
| E-2 | Meter malfunction. Contact customer service. |
| E-3 | Temperature too high or too low. Move to an area with a temperature between 50°F and 104°F (10°C and 40°C) and retest. |
| E-4 | Test strip is damaged or was not properly inserted. Retest with a new test strip. |
| E-5 | Blood sample was applied before the flashing blood drop symbol appeared. Retest with a new test strip. |
| E-6 | Not enough blood was applied to the test strip. Retest with a new test strip. |
| E-7 | Control solution test result is out of range. Repeat the control solution test. |
| E-8 | Meter malfunction. Contact customer service. |
| E-9 | Test strip error. Retest with a new test strip. |
| E-10 | Meter malfunction. Contact customer service. |
| E6 | Occurs when the temperature is outside thetemperature operating range |
|---|---|
| E5 | Occurs when an abnormal sample is detected,the contact bars of the test strips are dirty, oran incorrect sample type is used |
| E0 | Occurs when measurement of blood sample isattempted during QC lockout |
| Control Solution Flag | Meter displays control flag when controlsolution is tested |
| Temperature Flag | Occurs alongside E6 when the temperature isoutside the temperature operating range |
For each error code/flag listed in Table 7, the appropriate conditions that trigger the error code/flag were tested and the error code/flag was verified. Additionally, conditions that should not trigger the error code/flag were also tested and the absence of the error code/flag was verified.
SHORT SAMPLE DETECTION
Blood glucose measurement from short samples of reduced sample volume) can lead to inaccurate results. To avoid the risk of inaccurate results, Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems should be able to detect that a short blood sample has been applied to the test strip and should not provide a result.
Three lots of Assure Titanium test strips were tested with venous blood samples at three glucose levels (50-65. 100-120, 200-250 mg/dL) that were verified using the YS1 2300. Approximately 0.1. 0.3. 0.5. 1. 5. or 10 uL of sample was applied to the test strip. Once the countdown was completed (if initiated), an error or the test result displayed on the meter.
The results demonstrated that the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System will either produce an error or an accurate result when short sampled.
SAMPLE PERTURBATION
Sample perturbation occurs when an appropriate volume of blood is applied to the test strip for glucose measurement, but an event such as wicking of blood away from the test strip, flicking of the test strip or flipping of the meter occurs during the start of the measurement and potentially alters the volume of the initial sample application.
{16}------------------------------------------------
Three lots of Assure Titanium test strips were tested with venous blood samples at three glucose levels (50-65, 100-120, 200-250 mg/dL) that were verified using the YSI 2300. The samples were applied to the test strip and then perturbed by flicking the test strip, flipping the meter on theside, and wicking the sample away using a tissue.
The results demonstrated that the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System either provides an error or an accurate result when the sample is perturbed.
TESTING WITH USED TEST STRIP
The Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System is designed to automatically detect the insertion of used Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Test Strips into the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Meter. Insertion of used Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Test Strips into the system should not provide glucose measurement results.
Three lots of Assure Titanium test strips were dosed with either capillary finger-stick blood or control solution. The used test strips were then re-inserted into Assure Titanium meters to produce an error. The target acceptance criteria are as follow: All used test strips shall produce the E1 error upon re-insertion. All test results met the acceptance criteria.
SUMMARY OF CLINICAL STUDY (METHOD COMPARISON)
The Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Meter and Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Test Strips for the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System were tested in a multi-center study conducted at one (1) nursing/skilled nursing facility and two (2) endocrinology clinics to demonstrate clinical performance with patients/subjects in whom routine glucose monitoring is done in these settings.
Nursing/skilled nursing facility (Site #1) is a 475-bed institution in the state of Massachusetts. The study took place across both long-term care nursing and temporary care/rehabilitation units. The study was conducted by Point-of-Care operators who took capillary blood samples from 130 patients . Patients in this study represented 390 medical conditions and 239 different medications. Site #2 is an endocrinology clinic located in the state of California. Point-of-Care operators took capillary blood samples from 165 patients in this study represented 18 medical conditions and 245 different medications. Site #3 is an endocrinology clinic located in the state of Georgia. Point-of-Care operators took capillary blood samples from 101 patients. Patients in this study comprised 61 medical conditions and 196 different medications.
In total, capillary blood samples from 396 patients were measured and the results were compared to the YSI Model 2300 Glucose Analyzer, a lab instrument (comparator method). The tables 8-12 below show differences in glucose values between the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Meter and the YSI method.
The slope, correlation, intercept, standard error, and 95% confidence interval as shown in Table 8 represent a strong linear correlation between the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System and the YSI 2300 reference analyzer.

ACCURACY AT EXTREMES
An Accuracy at Extremes study was executed to conduct a more robust evaluation between Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System and the Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) 2300 reference analyzer in the extreme upper and lower claimed blood glucose measuring range using a POC operator.
Capillary samples were collected and allowed to glycolyze or were spiked with high concentration glucose solution to acquire 100 samples for testing with the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System and the comparator: YSI 2300. There were 50 samples with glucose <80 mg/dL and 50 with glucose >300 mg/dL.
The data for the Accuracy at Extremes Glucose Values study are presented in Table 15 below.

Table 15: Accuracy at extreme glucose value results for Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System vs YSI 2300 Reference Analyzer
The results from this study demonstrated the proposed Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System provides highly accurate glucose results when testing in the extreme glucose ranges.
USABILITY
A POC operator evaluation study was conducted during the clinical trial to evaluate the ease of use/understanding of the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System. The POC operator study involved POC operators filling out two usability questionnaires; one concerning the ease of use of the blood glucose meter system and one the ease of understanding of the Assure Titanium User Manual and the Quick Reference Guide (QRG). All the responses (100% combined) were positive i.e., Very Easy, or OK and indicated that the Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System is easy to use. The overall rating of understanding the Quick ReferenceGuide and User Manual for Assure Titanium Blood Glucose Monitoring System was positive with participants rating 100% in categories of Very Easy, Easy or OK (combined).
Expected Values
Expected values for non-diabetics Expected blood glucose values for non-pregnant adults without diabetes l Fasting* <100 mg/dL 2 hours after meals <140 mg/dL
*Fasting is defined as no caloric intake for at least eight hours. Consult the patient's physician to determine the range that is appropriate for your patients.
