Intended Use
ARKRAY ARK Care Diabetes Management System™ is intended for use in home and clinical settings via the internet to assist people with diabetes and their healthcare professionals in uploading, storing, analyzing, and communicating about historical blood glucose test results and other biological statistics to support diabetes management.
Device Story
ARK Care is a web-based diabetes management system; acts as interface between personal blood glucose monitors and secure health management database. Input: blood glucose data uploaded from compatible meters (ARKRAY, Roche, Bayer, LifeScan, Abbott) via USB cable; user-entered health data (weight, blood pressure, lab values, exercise). Processing: data storage, organization, and analysis. Output: logbooks, charts, graphs, and reports accessible via secure web portal. Used in home and clinical settings; operated by patients, family members, and healthcare professionals. Function: facilitates remote monitoring, data sharing, and communication between patients and care teams via password-protected portal. Benefit: improved diabetes treatment regulation and health outcomes through centralized data tracking and trending.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Validation included system hardware (USB data transfer cable) and software testing. Consumer studies were conducted to demonstrate the system's ability to be easily operated by in-home users.
Technological Characteristics
Web-based diabetes management software; utilizes USB data transfer cable for meter connectivity. Compliant with HIPAA and HITECH standards for data security. Operates via internet-connected browser. No specific materials or ASTM standards cited for the hardware interface.
Indications for Use
Indicated for people with diabetes and their healthcare professionals in home and clinical settings to manage blood glucose data and other biological statistics.
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.

| Device Description: | ARK Care system serves as an interface between the software in<br>personal glucose monitoring devices and a general purpose health<br>management database to assist in the review, analysis and evaluation<br>of blood glucose test results. The secure system is compliant with<br>HIPAA and HITECH standards.<br><br>ARK Care is designed for home use and professional healthcare<br>settings. It is an accessory device to most manufactured model home-<br>use blood glucose monitors, including glucose monitoring devices by<br>ARKRAY, Roche, Bayer, LifeScan, and Abbott. The list of supported<br>devices is located at www.arkcare.net.<br><br>The purpose of the electronic diabetes management system is to help<br>users and healthcare teams manage blood glucose information to<br>better regulate diabetes treatments and control blood glucose for<br>better health outcomes. The ARK Care system holds a convenience<br>function, as the user can upload blood glucose data from a variety of<br>currently marketed blood glucose monitors into one location for<br>viewing. After the user transmits and stores blood glucose data to the<br>secure database, the ARK Care system allows family members and/or<br>healthcare professionals to view and monitor the user's data and<br>reports. Family and healthcare team members must receive<br>permission from the primary user and create a password protected<br>login before viewing data. ARK Care provides a safe communication<br>portal for the user, family, and healthcare team to send email-like |
| | entries, improving patient care and disease management. |
| | The user and approved healthcare team members can view the blood<br>glucose data in different formats such as logbooks, charts, and graphs.<br>The data can be viewed through selected time intervals and these<br>intervals can be compared over time to track disease management. |
| | The subject can also enter and track other health-related information<br>such as body weight, blood pressure, lab values, and exercise<br>activities. Groups of profiles can be queried for bulk reporting on data<br>related to tracking and trending of outcomes, supporting diabetes<br>disease management in individuals and in managed care<br>organizations. |
| Intended Use: | ARKRAY ARK Care Diabetes Management System™ is intended for<br>use in home and clinical settings via the internet to assist people with<br>diabetes and their healthcare professionals in uploading, storing,<br>analyzing, and communicating about historical blood glucose test<br>results and other biological statistics to support diabetes management. |
| Functional and<br>Safety Testing: | A full array of in-house testing was done consistent with relevant FDA<br>guidance's for blood glucose monitoring systems. Testing included<br>validation of the systems hardware (USB data transfer cable) and<br>software as well as consumer studies that demonstrated the systems<br>ability to be easily operated by in-home users. |
| Conclusion: | Labeling, validation testing results and consumer studies results<br>support the Indications for Use and the claim of substantial<br>equivalence to the predicate (K073699). |
