The FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended to be used for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood. The FastTake® System is intended for use outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use) by diabetics at home as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control.
The FastTake® system includes four main components:
- · FastTake® Test Strips
- FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Meter .
- · FastTake® Control Solution
- · Penlet II or Penlet Plus lancing device and FinePoint lancets.
Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System's acceptance criteria and studies:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
| Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Visual confirmation of sufficient blood sample on test strip | Patients detected under-filled and correctly filled strips with 99% accuracy. |
| Ability of intended users (diabetic patients) to utilize the new feature independently | Demonstrated ability of individual patients to test independently. |
| Equivalence in performance to the unmodified predicate device | Verification and validation tests demonstrate that the modified system has equivalent performance to the unmodified FastTake Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size: 19 diabetic patients.
- Data Provenance: The study was a "consumer-use study," implying real-world or simulated home use. The location/country of origin is not explicitly stated, but Selfcare, Inc. is located in Waltham, MA, USA, suggesting a US-based study. It was a prospective study as it evaluated users interactively with the device feature.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
This information is not provided in the given text. The study focused on consumer perception and ability to detect correct filling, implying the "ground truth" for the confirmation window's effectiveness was based on the physical state of the strip (correctly filled vs. under-filled), which would likely be objectively observable or determined by the study administrators rather than expert consensus on a diagnosis.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
This information is not provided in the given text. As the "ground truth" likely related to objective observation of the test strip filling, a formal adjudication method like 2+1 or 3+1 might not have been necessary for this specific performance metric.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done
No, a MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The study was a consumer-use study to evaluate the usability and effectiveness of a visual confirmation window, not a comparison of human reader performance with and without AI assistance for diagnosis.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
This device, a blood glucose monitoring system, is a diagnostic device that requires human interaction (applying blood to the strip). There is no mention of a standalone algorithm-only performance study independent of human use for the FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System as described. The "confirmation window" is a visual aid for the user, not an automated algorithm to interpret results.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth for the consumer-use study regarding the confirmation window was based on the adequacy of sample filling (i.e., whether the strip was correctly filled or under-filled). This is an objective characteristic of the test strip's physical state rather than a medical diagnosis.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
This information is not applicable and therefore not provided. This device is not an AI/ML-based system requiring a training set in the typical sense. The "FastTake® strips with the new confirmation window feature" were evaluated, implying a design change rather than a learned model.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
This information is not applicable as there is no training set for an AI/ML model for this device.

Summary Prepared:
March 19, 1999
Name of the device:
FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System
Classification name(s):
The FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System is classified as a Class II device (21 CFR § 862.2100). It is for home use.
Classification of predicate device(s):
The FastTake® test strip of the FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System is being modified to provide a visual confirmation window to provide the user with a way of ensuring that sufficient blood has been applied to the test strip.
The FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System which is not materially different from the predicate device, FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System, was cleared for use in the United States as the Elect II Blood Glucose Monitoring System by K970707. Both the modified and unmodified FastTake® Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems were developed and are controlled Selfcare, Inc. in Waltham, MA. LifeScan, Inc. of Milpitas, CA distributes the FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System.
Description of the device
The FastTake® system includes four main components:
- · FastTake® Test Strips
- FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Meter .
- · FastTake® Control Solution
- · Penlet II or Penlet Plus lancing device and FinePoint lancets.
{1}------------------------------------------------
Intended use(s):
The Intended Use of the FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System is the same as the device that was cleared by K970707.
The FastTake Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended to be used for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood. The FastTake® System is intended for use outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use) by diabetics at home as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control.
Statement of How the Technological Characteristics of the Device Compare to the Predicate device:
The technological characteristics of the modified FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System are the same as the legally marketed predicate device (unmodified FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System).
Summary of Performance Data:
Verification and validation tests demonstrate that modified FastTake® Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System has equivalent performance to the unmodified FastTake Compact Blood Glucose Monitoring System.
The FastTake® strips with the new confirmation window feature were evaluated in a consumer-use study by 19 diabetic patients who ranged in age from 3 to 54.
The results of this study indicate that typical intended users (i.e. people with diabetes) can use the new FastTake® strips' confirmation window to view sample filling adequacy. The data showed that the patients detected under-filled and correctly filled strips with 99% accuracy. The ability of individual patients to test independently was also demonstrated.
