The FOCUS PRO Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in venous and arterial whole blood and in fresh capillary whole blood obtained from the fingertip or forearm. Intended for testing outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use) for multipatient use in a professional healthcare setting as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of a diabetes control program. This system should only be used with sing-use, auto-disabling lancing devices. Alternative site testing on the forearm should be used only during steady-state blood glucose conditions. Not intended for the diagnosis of or screening for diabetes, and not intended for use on neonates.
FOCUS PRO Blood Glucose Test Strips are used only with FOCUS PRO Meters for the quantitative measurement of glucose in venous and arterial whole blood and in fresh capillary whole blood taken from the fingertip or forearm.
FOCUS Control Solution is for use with FOCUS and FOCUS PRO Meters and Test Strips as a quality control check to verify that the meter and test strip are working together properly, and that the test is performing correctly.
The FOCUS and FOCUS Pro Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems are comprised of glucose reagent test strips using glucose dehydrogenase flavin-adenine dinucleotide chemistry (GDH-FAD), a portable hand-held electronic meter and glucose control solutions.
The FOCUS and FOCUS Pro Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems are identical and include identical components (test strips, meter, control solutions), differing only in name to identify the intended user of the system. The FOCUS Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for single-patient use (self-testing) and the FOCUS Pro Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for multi-patient use (healthcare professional user).
When a user inserts a test strip into the meter, the meter turns on. While the test strip is in the meter, the user obtains a blood or glucose control sample, and then applies the sample to the test strip by touching the test strip to the sample. When an adequate amount of sample has been applied to the test strip, the meter emits an audible beep (when this feature is selected by the user) and the test begins. The meter's liquid crystal display (LCD) shows a test is in process by counting down from the number 4. When the test is complete, the meter displays the glucose result. Blood glucose results are plasma-calibrated to facilitate comparison to standard laboratory methods of blood glucose measurement.
The Blood Glucose Meter is a handheld device powered by one 3-volt nonrechargeable lithium battery. The meter includes a Test Port for insertion of a single test strip, an LCD display, a test strip release button, and buttons to navigate through menu choices. Meter operation is self-prompting using three user interface buttons. In addition to measuring glucose, the Meter also stores blood glucose and control solution results. The Meter offers audible feedback for user inputs, and audible and/or visual feedback for prompts and user alerts. A "battery low" warning alerts the user to change the batteries. Battery charge information is available on the "Meter status screen". The user can select the auto shutoff option to conserve power when the Meter is not in use. Test data and Meter setup information will be stored in a non-volatile form to prevent data loss.
Device Description:
{2}------------------------------------------------
Meter Power Supply: The meter uses single volt (3V) lithium, non rechargeable battery (# CR2032). Theoretical battery life is approximately 1 year or 1000 tests, when testing is performed three times per day.
No-Coding System. The user is not required to enter a test strip lot-specific Calibration Code into the meter by pressing a button or by inserting a Code Key. FOCUS and FOCUS Pro test strips are assigned only one code and this single code is used for all strip lots.
Glucose Control Solutions are aqueous assayed solutions, containing buffered D-Glucose, viscosity-adjusting agent, preservatives and other nonreactive ingredients (dye). They contain no products of human origin. There are three leveis of controls, (Levels 1, 2 and 3).
When a control solution sample is applied to the FOCUS or FOCUS Pro test strip, the meter automatically detects and identifies the glucose control sample using an impedance measurement while performing the glucose measurement. After identifying the sample as control solution, the meter marks the result with the control solution icon and stores the marked result in the meter memory. All control results are excluded from the glucose patient result average calculations.
Summary of the Technological Characteristics: The FOCUS and FOCUS Pro Blood Glucose Monitors have the same fundamental scientific technology and the same intended use as the predicate Nova One Glucose Monitor System (K122435).
The FOCUS and FOCUS Pro Blood Glucose Monitors measure glucose electrochemically as described in the Nova One Glucose Monitor System (K122435). In the same manner, the magnitude of the current is proportional to the amount of glucose present in the sample, providing a quantitative measure of glucose in whole blood and control solutions.
fundamental scientific technology and have the same intended use as the
The FOCUS and FOCUS Pro Biood Glucose Monitors use the same
predicate Nova One Glucose Monitor System (K122435).
Comparison to Predicate Devices:
Performance Studies:
The performance of the FOCUS and FOCUS Pro Blood Glucose Monitors was studied in the laboratory and in Human Factors testing by healthcare professionals and lay users. The studies demonstrated that lay users can obtain blood glucose results that are substantially equivalent to the current methods for blood glucose measurements.
Conclusion: Results of laboratory and Human Factors testing demonstrate that the performance of the FOCUS and FOCUS Pro Blood Glucose Monitors have the same intended uses, with similar technological characteristics and can produce results that are substantially equivalent to results obtained on the predicate devices. The systems perform as intended and raise no new safety or effectiveness issues.
