Intended Use
The Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (Dexcom G6 System) is a real time, continuous glucose monitoring device indicated for the management of diabetes in persons age 2 years and older. The Dexcom G6 System is intended to replace fingerstick blood glucose testing for diabetes treatment decisions. Interpretation of the Dexcom G6 System results should be based on the glucose trends and several sequential readings over time. The Dexcom G6 System also aids in the detection of episodes of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, facilitating both acute and long-term therapy adjustments. The Dexcom G6 System is also intended to autonomously communicate with digitally connected devices, including automated insulin dosing (AID) systems. The Dexcom G6 System can be used alone or in conjunction with these digitally connected medical devices for the purpose of managing diabetes.
Device Story
Subcutaneous glucose sensor measures interstitial fluid glucose via glucose oxidase enzymatic reaction; generates electrical current proportional to glucose concentration. Transmitter processes signals using internal algorithm; transmits data via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to receiver or mobile app. New Partner Web APIs enable cloud-based data sharing with authorized client software for non-medical applications, data analysis, secondary alarms, and patient monitoring. System provides real-time glucose readings, trend arrows, and alerts for hypo/hyperglycemia. Used by patients for diabetes management; replaces fingerstick testing for treatment decisions. Not intended for AID system integration via Partner Web APIs. Healthcare providers use output for therapy adjustments. Benefits include continuous monitoring, reduced fingersticks, and improved glycemic control.
Clinical Evidence
No new clinical data provided. Performance characteristics established in previous submissions (DEN170088, K200876) remain applicable. Bench testing and validation performed for software, interoperability, and cybersecurity.
Technological Characteristics
Subcutaneous enzymatic electrochemical sensor (glucose oxidase). BLE transmitter; receiver/mobile app display. Reportable range 40-400 mg/dL. Sterilization via radiation (ISO 11137). Biocompatibility per ISO 10993. Software lifecycle per IEC 62304. Cloud-based API connectivity added.
Indications for Use
Indicated for management of diabetes in persons age 2 years and older. Intended to replace fingerstick blood glucose testing for treatment decisions and aid in detection of hyperglycemia/hypoglycemia episodes.

#### 5.3 Predicate Device:
Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System (K200876)
#### 5.4 Device Description:
The Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (G6 System) is an interoperable connected device that measures and displays glucose values for patients with diabetes. The G6 System consists of three main components: a sensor/applicator, a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) transmitter, and a BLE enabled display device (receiver and/or mobile application). The sensor is a small and flexible wire, which is inserted by the applicator into subcutaneous tissue where it converts glucose into electrical current. The sensor has an expected wear time of up to 10 days. The transmitter is connected to the sensor and is worn on the body. The transmitter samples the electrical current produced by the sensor and converts these measurements into estimated glucose values (EGV) using an onboard algorithm. The transmitter sends glucose data to the receiver and/or mobile app, which displays the current glucose reading (updated every 5 minutes) and glucose trends. The receiver and/or mobile app also alerts the user when glucose levels are outside of a target zone and when other important system conditions occur. The G6 System is designed to be used alone or in conjunction with digitally connected devices. The G6 System can communicate Estimated Glucose Values (EGV) and other information wirelessly and securely to and from these digitally connected devices in several ways, such as described below:
- 1. Wireless communication from the transmitter directly to an interoperable device communicating through the same protocol.
- 2. The app communicates to another app on a single mobile platform.
- 3. The app communicates through the cloud to another software device.
The proposed G6 CGM System is based on the same physical principles and fundamental design as the commercially available G6 CGM System (K200876), but it includes an additional software component.
The added software component, which consists of cloud-based Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), is identified as Dexcom Partner Web APIs (Partner Web APIs). The Partner Web APIs enables communication of iCGM data to client software intended to receive the data through the cloud. The transmitted data can be used by authorized client software for specific and permitted use cases including non-medical device application, medical device data analysis, CGM secondary display alarm, active patient monitoring, and treatment decisions. The software application may not be used in environments not currently cleared for Dexcom G6 CGM System (e.g. hospital for inpatient care). The Partner Web APIs is not intended to be used by automated insulin delivery systems (AID).
Dexcom display devices (receiver and mobile app) continues to serve as a primary display device for the (iCGM) data, which directly receives the data from the transmitter. Identical
{5}------------------------------------------------
to the G6 CGM System cleared in K200876, the mobile app includes a design mitigation that overrides Do Not Disturb settings on the smart device with the users' consent. With this app design mitigation, the G6 CGM system functions as intended to provide users with critical alarm and alerts (e.g. Urgent Low alarm) regardless of the user's smart device settings for Do Not Disturb. The current components of the Dexcom G6 System (sensor/applicator, transmitter, and display devices) have not been changed as a result of the added Partner Web APIs.
#### 5.5 Indications for Use:
The Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (Dexcom G6 System) is a real time, continuous glucose monitoring device indicated for the management of diabetes in persons age 2 years and older.
The Dexcom G6 System is intended to replace fingerstick blood glucose testing for diabetes treatment decisions. Interpretation of the Dexcom G6 System results should be based on the glucose trends and several sequential readings over time. The Dexcom G6 System also aids in the detection of episodes of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, facilitating both acute and long-term therapy adjustments.
The Dexcom G6 System is also intended to autonomously communicate with digitally connected devices, including automated insulin dosing (AID) systems. The Dexcom G6 System can be used alone or in conjunction with these digitally connected medical devices for the purpose of managing diabetes.
