Intended Use

The PocketChem EZ Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertips and palms. Testing is done outside the body ( In Vitro diagnostic use). It is indicated for use at home (over the counter [OTC]) by persons with diabetes, or in clinical settings by healthcare professionals, as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control.

Device Story

System consists of meter, test strips, and control solutions; uses biosensor technology for quantitative glucose measurement. Input: fresh capillary whole blood (fingertip/palm) applied to test strip. Principle: glucose oxidase (GOD) and Hexammineruthenium (III) chloride reaction; oxidation of Hexammineruthenium (II) chloride generates electric current proportional to glucose concentration. Meter converts current to glucose value. User codes meter via code chip per strip vial. Used at home by patients or in clinics by professionals. Output: digital glucose concentration display. Benefits: aids diabetes management; provides rapid (10s) monitoring. Quality control solutions verify accuracy.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical testing evaluated accuracy for finger stick and palm test sites. Bench testing included evaluation of interferences, linearity, linear range, hematocrit effects, altitude effects, control solution functionality, and analytical precision.

Technological Characteristics

Blood glucose monitoring system consisting of a meter, test strips, and control solutions. Utilizes electrochemical sensing principle for quantitative glucose measurement. Designed for capillary whole blood samples.

Indications for Use

Indicated for quantitative glucose measurement in fresh capillary whole blood (fingertips/palms) for diabetes management. For home (OTC) or clinical use. Contraindicated for neonates and not for diabetes diagnosis or screening.

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.

Dear Mr. Idrissi:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
