Intended Use
The FreeStyle Lite Blood Glucose Monitoring System is specifically indicated for use on the finger, forearm, upper arm, thigh, calf and hand. The FreeStyle Lite Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for use in the quantitative measurement of glucose in whole blood. It is intended for use by healthcare professionals and people with diabetes mellitus at home as an aid in monitoring the effectiveness of a diabetes control program. It is not intended for the diagnosis of or screening for diabetes mellitus, and it is not intended for use on neonates or arterial blood.
Device Story
FreeStyle Lite Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS) uses coulometric biosensor technology to measure glucose concentration in whole blood. Device employs glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) enzyme on test strips to recognize glucose; electrochemical measurement occurs via coulometry. System designed for use by healthcare professionals and patients at home to monitor diabetes control programs. Input is whole blood sample (0.3 microliter); output is quantitative glucose concentration (mg/dL) displayed on monitor. Key features include 400-result memory and 7-, 14-, and 30-day averages. Device eliminates manual calibration code entry required by predicate. Powered by 3V coin cell battery; includes serial port for communication. Provides patients with actionable data for diabetes management.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only; design control activities and verification/validation testing performed to confirm that modifications met predetermined acceptance criteria; no clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Electrochemical glucose monitoring system; features backlight and test light; includes 7 and 30-day moving average calculation capability; increased data storage; no-code calibration; fundamental sensing technology consistent with predicate.
Indications for Use
Indicated for quantitative glucose measurement in whole blood for patients with diabetes mellitus. Suitable for use by healthcare professionals and patients at home. Sites include finger, forearm, upper arm, thigh, calf, and hand. Contraindicated for neonates and arterial blood samples.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A glucose test system is a device intended to measure glucose quantitatively in blood and other body fluids. Glucose measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders including diabetes mellitus, neonatal hypoglycemia, and idiopathic hypoglycemia, and of pancreatic islet cell carcinoma.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is solely intended for use as a drink to test glucose tolerance, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.

# Description of the Device:
The FreeStyle™ Lite Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS) utilizes coulometric biosensor technology found in the FreeStyle Lite test strip to quantitatively measure glucose concentration in whole blood samples or in FreeStyle Control Solutions. The FreeStyle Lite BGMS measures glucose electrochemically. The glucose biosensor is capable of recognizing the glucose present in whole blood by virtue of the glucose specificity of the enzyme glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) present on the glucose test strip.
### Intended Use of the Device:
