# L. Test Principle:
Glucose dehydrogenase assay and amperometric technology is used. The reaction utilizes the enzyme glucose dehydrogenase to catalyze the formation of gluconolactone from the oxidation of glucose whereby two electrons are produced. Through the mechanism of the mediator, electrical current is generated and it is proportional to the quantity of glucose in the sample.
# M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
1. Analytical performance:
a. Precision/Reproducibility:
Precision includes intermediate precision (day-to-day precision) and repeatability (within-day precision) on three meters. For intermediate
{4}
precision, three level glucose control solutions were used instead of blood specimen to prevent glucose degradation effect (glycolysis), and this evaluation was performed for ten days. Repeatability was performed at 5 levels with spiked venous blood samples as short a period of time (30 minutes) as possible to minimize the effect of glycolysis.

b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
Testing was conducted using venous blood spiked with D-glucose to provide 11 samples spaced across the range of $<20\mathrm{mg/dL}$ to $>700\mathrm{mg/dL}$ . Testing was conducted using TD-4277 meter with TD-4277 test strips, and YSI-2300 glucose analyzer as the reference method.
5 of 12
{5}
Samples were divided into two aliquots. One aliquot was used to perform on the TD-4277 meter and the second aliquot was analyzed on the YSI. For each level solution, 5 consecutive tests were performed by TD-4277 and YSI each.
Regression analysis calculated in the range 16.8-669 mg/dL is:
Y = 1.0268x - 6.8852
R² 0.9977
The applicant is using this study to support the claimed measuring range of 20-600 mg/dL
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
Control solutions are prepared to fall within each of three levels 35 - 65, 112-168 and 224 -336 and then check against YSI-2300. Acceptance Criteria is if the coefficient of variation (CV%) of each level of control solution is less than 5% in both measurement results by glucose meter, and YSI-2300, and the mean values of the measurement results by a glucose meter is within the specified range of values.
Control open/closed stability claimed is based on real time studies, based on the coefficient of variation (C.V %) for each level of the control solution is less than 5% in measurement results by YSI-2300 and the mean values of the measurement results by a glucose meter is within the specified range of values.
The results demonstrated that the Control Solution (Level 1, 2, 3) are stable for 90 days after opening, and have a shelf-life of 24 months by meeting the acceptance criteria when stored at 36°F to 86°F (2 - 32°C).
The strip storage claims are: 90 days for open vial of strips stored at 2 - 32 °C and 24 months for unopened vials of strips stored at 2 - 32°C.
d. Detection limit:
The measuring range of the system is 20 - 600 mg/dL. This range was verified by the linearity study in section M.1.b above.
e. Analytical specificity:
Seven volunteer subjects were healthy and had not taken medications prior to blood donation. Blood was obtained from the forearm of fasting volunteers and collected in 5-mL lithium EDTA Vacutainers. The high glucose level (300mg/dL) was achieved by adding 10% dextrose solution to the blood pool.

The below table is from an evaluation of the dose-response relationship where 5 endogenous and exogenous concentrations from therapeutic (physiological) to toxic were performed 4 times each at low (75-85 mg/dL) and high (300 mg/dL) glucose levels. A criterion of $\pm 10\%$ was used as the cutoff for interference.

{7}
The above table lists the drug concentrations at which interference with glucose measurements was greater than $\pm 10\%$. Most of the concentrations are higher than therapeutic or physiological levels.
There were no significant interferences observed for galactose, maltose and fructose, however, xylose showed a significant interference for concentrations above $50\mathrm{mg/dL}$ in both high and low glucose levels.
No interference was observed in the rest of the interfering substances at therapeutic or physiological levels either at low or high glucose levels.

# b. Matrix comparison:
The blood glucose measurement accuracy of the proposed device with venous samples was evaluated. Fresh venous whole blood samples were tested using both TD-4277 and the reference method, YSI-2300 glucose analyzer.
One hundred (100) samples from $24.5 - 579\mathrm{mg / dL}$ were included. The fresh venous whole blood samples were from different individuals except those with blood glucose concentration less than $40\mathrm{mg / dL}$ and greater than $400\mathrm{mg / dL}$ . For those samples less than $40\mathrm{mg / dL}$ and greater than $400\mathrm{mg / dL}$ , a pooled venous whole blood sample was used instead and spiked to the desired level as in the above matrix comparison distribution of samples.

P. Other Supportive Instrument Performance Characteristics Data Not Covered In The "Performance Characteristics" Section above:
The data management software used to acquire the data from the proposed device was cleared, under k070941. Ease of use in data transmission from a blood glucose meter to a PC has been validated in both the submissions of the data management software and the predicate device, FORA G30 BLOOD GLUCOSE MONITORING SYSTEM (K090187) and the method of setting up and transmission in the subject device are the same as the predicate device. The sponsor provided an acceptable report for the data accuracy for change from RS-232 to USB connection.
The sponsor conducted the FleschKincaid readability assessment of the User Manual and obtained a grade level score equivalent to an average student in 8th grade reading level. The test strip and control solution package inserts have a 7th grade reading level.
Hematocrit Study:
To test accuracy due to the hematocrit effect, venous blood samples were collected in an anti-coagulant (Li-EDTA) vacuum tube, and glucose levels were adjusted to the following ranges; 10-20 mg/dL, 20-50 mg/dL, 50-100 mg/dL, 100-200 mg/dL, 200-350 mg/dL, 350-450 mg/dL, 450-550 mg/dL, and 600-700 mg/dL. Samples were then adjusted to hematocrit levels of 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, and 65%. The YSI 2300 was used as the reference method. The results of the hematocrit study were reviewed and found to be acceptable for 20% to 60% hematocrit.
