No
The document describes a simple data transfer accessory and makes no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts.

No
The device is described as an "accessory" that provides a "communication link" for "data transfer" between a blood glucose meter and a personal computer. It does not directly perform any therapeutic action.

No
The device is an adapter for data transfer from a blood glucose meter to a computer; it does not perform any diagnostic function itself. The diagnostic function is performed by the blood glucose meter.

No

The device is described as an "Adapter" and mentions "hardware verification and validation tests," indicating it is a physical component, not solely software.

Based on the provided text, the Lifescan FastTake® Adapter is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device itself.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: Its intended use is solely for data transfer between a blood glucose meter and a personal computer. It does not perform any diagnostic testing or analysis of biological samples.
  • Device Description: It is described as an accessory that provides a communication link. It doesn't interact directly with blood or perform any chemical or biological reactions.
  • Classification: It is classified as a calculator/data processing module for clinical use (21 CFR § 862.2100). This classification falls under general clinical devices, not specifically IVDs.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description lacks any mention of analyzing biological samples, performing diagnostic tests, or providing diagnostic information.

While it is an accessory to a blood glucose meter (which is an IVD), the adapter itself is a data transfer device and not an IVD.

Summary Prepared:

September 30, 1998

Name of the device:

FastTake® Adapter

Classification name(s):

The FastTake Adapter is a Class I accessory device classified as a calculator/data processing module for clinical use (21 CFR § 862.2100). As it can also be used in the home by a layperson, it is not exempt from premarket notification (21 CFR § 862.9(a)).

Classification of predicate device(s):

The FastTake Adapter is not materially different from the predicate device, the Precision Link™ Communications Box, a component of the Precision Link™ Blood Glucose Data Management System. The predicate device is manufactured by Medisense, Inc and was cleared for use in the United States by K952279. The Precision Link™ System, which is classified as a data management system, is comprised of five separate components: data management software, communications box, an AC power adapter, communications cable, and an RS-232 cable. It is the Precision Link™ Communications Box that the FastTake Adapter is analogous to. Whereas K952279 covered all components of the Precision Link™ Data Management System, this premarket notification covers only the communication link component (i.e. the FastTake Adapter).

Description of the device/intended use(s):

The FastTake" Adapter is an accessory to the FastTake Blood Glucose Meter. lt provides a communication link between the FastTake Meter and the ONE TOUCH® cable, neither of which is included with the Adapter. The FastTake Adapter is intended to be used for data transfer between a FastTake Meter and a personal computer.

Statement of How the Technological Characteristics of the Device Compare to the Predicate device:

The technological characteristics are the same as both devices are micoprocessor controlled communication devices, thus have the same safety and effectiveness. They have the same intended use, i.e. communication between a PC and a glucose meter.

Summary of Performance Data:

Software and hardware verification and validation tests demonstrate that the FastTake Adapter provides reliable communication between a PC and the FastTake Blood Glucose Meter.
