The strength of the current produced by the reaction depends on the amount of glucose in the blood sample.
## M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
### 1. Analytical performance:
#### a. Precision/Reproducibility:
Within-day precision studies were performed using venous whole blood samples spiked with five different glucose concentrations, three different test strip lots, 10 AG-608 meters and 10 AG-610 meters. Each level was analyzed 10 times for a total of 100 tests per each glucose level for each type of meter. Results are summarized below:
| Meter | AG-608 | | | | AG-610 | | |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Sample Level (mg/dL) | Mean (mg/dL) | SD (mg/dL) | CV (%) | | Mean (mg/dL) | SD (mg/dL) | CV (%) |
| 30-50 | 45 | 1.3 | 2.78 | | 41.2 | 2.7 | 6.61 |
| 51-110 | 101.2 | 2.6 | 2.60 | | 105.0 | 2.5 | 2.34 |
| 111-150 | 129.9 | 3.5 | 2.70 | | 133.7 | 3.7 | 2.79 |
| 151-250 | 213.2 | 5.6 | 2.62 | | 212.5 | 7.0 | 3.29 |
| 251-400 | 345.2 | 9.1 | 2.64 | | 348.5 | 11.4 | 3.27 |
Day-to-day precision was evaluated using three glucose control solutions with concentration levels of low (45 mg/dL), normal (135 mg/dL), and high (320
4
{4}
mg/dL), three different reagent lots and 10 AG-608 meters and 10 AG-610 meters. These tests were performed over 10 days, for a total of 100 tests per glucose level for each meter (AG-608 and AG-610). Results are summarized below.
| Meter | AG-608 | | | AG-610 | | |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Control Sample | Mean (mg/dL) | SD (mg/dL) | CV (%) | Mean (mg/dL) | SD (mg/dL) | CV (%) |
| Low (45 mg/dL) | 42.8 | 1.6 | 3.85 | 40.7 | 2.8 | 6.87 |
| Medium (135 mg/dL) | 129.7 | 4.5 | 3.44 | 110.8 | 4.1 | 3.67 |
| High (320 mg/dL) | 326.3 | 8.5 | 2.61 | 327.2 | 12.5 | 3.83 |
b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
Linearity was evaluated using 11 spiked whole blood samples ranging in glucose concentrations from 18 to 605 mg/dL (18, 41, 72, 164, 221, 268, 332, 402, 503, 557, 605 mg/dL) as measured by YSI. Each level was measured 5 times and the values from the AG-608 meter were compared with those obtained from YSI-2300. The same evaluation was performed with the AG-610 meter with samples ranging from 17 to 613 mg/dL glucose (17, 56, 114, 168, 257, 346, 419, 472, 534, 581, 613 mg/dL) as measured by YSI. Results from regression analysis:
AG-608 meter: $y = 1.0265x - 4.916$ ; $R^2 = 0.9946$
AG-610 meter: $y = 0.9772x + 7.2978$ ; $R^2 = 0.9985$ .
The claimed range of measurement for this device is 20 to $600\mathrm{mg / dL}$
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
The sponsor claims that the system accuracy of the AG-608 and AG-610 meters is calibrated to a laboratory analyzer, YSI 2300.
Two levels of control material, Level II (96 to $144\mathrm{mg / dL}$ ) and Level III (250 to 420 mg/dL) are available for use with this test system.
The controls are prepared in an aqueous matrix. The reference values are determined using YSI 2300 then each control solution is tested 100 times using meter and test strip combinations and the mean value, SD and CV calculated. The control solution range is then determined for each manufactured lot and printed on the corresponding test strip vial label.

Control solution stability was assessed with accelerated studies and on-going real-time studies. Testing supports the claimed shelf life of 18 month shelf-life when stored at 4-30°C (39 to 86 °F) with relative humidity of <80% and a 90 day stability after opening when stored at 4-30°C with relative humidity of <80%.
c. Detection limit:
The reportable range for the AG-608 and AG-610 Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems is 20 to 600 mg/dL. This range was verified by the linearity study (M.1.b).
d. Analytical specificity:
The sponsor spiked venous whole blood samples with glucose to obtain concentrations of 80, 120, and 350 mg/dL. Each of these samples was divided into a test pool and a control pool and each potential interfering substance was added to the test pool.
Each level was analyzed 5 times total with two AG-608 meters and 5 times total with two AG-610 meters with 3 lots of glucose test strips. The % difference between the interference containing sample and the control sample calculated. The sponsor defines no significant interference as ≤10% difference. Results are presented in the table below:
| Potential Interfering Substance | Concentration with no Significant Interference (mg/dL) | | Potential Interfering Substance | Concentration with no Significant Interference (mg/dL) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Acetaminophen | 5.0 | | Tolazamide | 30 |
| Ascorbic Acid | 2 | | Tolbutamide | 64 |
| Ephedrine | 3.6 | | Bilirubin | 15 |
| Ibuprofen | 50 | | Creatinine | 10 |
| L-Dopa | 1.35 | | Uric Acid | 8 |
| Methyldopa | 1.5 | | Cholesterol | 500 |
| Dopamine | 0.09 | | Triglycerides | 3000 |
| Salicylate | 60 | | | |
The user manual and test strip insert state that the following substances at levels greater than normal or therapeutic levels may cause significant interference: acetaminophen, ascorbic acid, uric acid, dopamine and L-dopa. Do not use icterus samples or high lipemia samples.
Hematocrit study:
The effect of different hematocrit levels was evaluated using whole blood samples with hematocrit levels 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 and 55% spiked with glucose to achieve 7 concentrations ranging from 21 to 597 mg/dL. Each sample was then tested 4 times using the AG-608 Blood Glucose meter and 3 times using the AG-610 meter. The
6
{6}
values compared with the glucose values from YSI-2300 analyzer. The % biases were acceptable within the claimed range of 30 to 55%. The results from regression analysis are summarized in the table below:
| Meter | Hematocrit % | Slope and Intercept | R² |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| AG-608 | 30 | y = 1.0076x - 5.8491 | 0.998 |
| | 35 | y = 0.9681x +8.4681 | 0.997 |
| | 40 | y = 0.9910x - 3.4569 | 0.997 |

| | 45 | y = 0.9804x +0.2287 | 0.998 |
| | 50 | y = 0.9808x -2.1713 | 0.998 |
| | 55 | y = 0.9081x +5.2522 | 0.998 |
Altitude study:
Capillary whole blood samples from 20 volunteers with glucose concentrations ranging from 66 to 403 mg/dL for the AG-608 meter and 62 to 422 mg/dL for the AG-610 meter were tested at 11,975 feet (3650 meters). Results were compared to YSI values and resulted in a % bias < 10% for all samples tested. The results support the claims in the labeling that altitudes up to 11,975 feet have no significant effect on blood glucose measurements from the AG-608 and AG-610 meters.
Temperature and humidity studies:
The sponsor performed temperature and humidity studies using the AG-608 and the AG-610 meter with low (40 mg/dL), normal (120 mg/dL) and high (350 mg/dL) glucose level control solutions. Results demonstrated that both systems (meters and test strips) can be used in conditions of 50 to 104°F (10 to 40°C) with relative humidity < 80% and stored under conditions of 39 to 86°F and relative humidity of <80%. The test strip labeling states to store the test strips in a cool dry place between 39 to 86°F.

# User Performance Study:
To demonstrate the accuracy of the AG-608 and AG-610 blood glucose monitoring systems the sponsor performed a study for each of the meters with 100 lay user participants and one technician at two different hospitals. The participants, who were able to read the User's Manual in English were instructed to read the manual, obtain their own finger stick sample and perform testing using the meter (AG-608 or AG-610). The technician then performed the testing on an additional fingerstick sample from the user. The samples ranged from 51.6 to $356\mathrm{mg / dL}$ for the AG-608 and 53.4 to $347\mathrm{mg / dL}$ for the AG-610. A sample was then taken from each participant by the technician and measured by YSI-2300. The results are summarized in the tables below:
