Device Story
System measures glucose in fresh capillary whole blood via amperometric electrochemical sensor. User applies blood to test strip; capillary action draws sample into strip tip. FAD-glucose dehydrogenase reacts with glucose and mediator to generate electrons; current produced correlates to glucose concentration. Meter displays result. Used at home by patients with diabetes. Device includes meter, test strips, control solution, lancing device, and lancets. Features LTE connectivity for data transmission. Healthcare providers review results to assess diabetes control effectiveness. Benefits include convenient, rapid self-monitoring of blood glucose levels.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance verified via extreme glucose studies using natural and modified blood samples to confirm accuracy per FDA SMBG OTC guidelines. Software safety, FCC compliance for LTE functionality, and cybersecurity evaluations were performed. All acceptance criteria met.
Indicated for self-testing of blood glucose levels in people with diabetes at home to monitor diabetes control. Not for diagnosis, screening, or neonatal use. Alternative site testing (fingertips, forearm, palm) restricted to steady-state glucose conditions.

D Special Instrument Requirements:
RIGHTEST Blood Glucose Meter Max Tel
IV Device/System Characteristics:
A Device Description:
RIGHTEST Blood Glucose Monitoring System Max Tel, is designed to quantitatively measure the glucose concentration in fresh capillary whole blood from fingertip, palm or forearm.
RIGHTEST Blood Glucose Monitoring System Max Tel consists of: RIGHTEST Blood Glucose Meter Max Tel, Blood Glucose Test Strip Max, RIGHTEST Control Solution GC700 (Level 1,
K240637 - Page 2 of 8
{2}
Level 2 and Level 4), RIGHTEST Lancing Device and Sterile Lancets (K221062). The RIGHTEST Blood Glucose Test Strip Max is the same as Test Strip Max cleared in K173638. The test strips, control solutions and lancing device can be purchased separately.
## B Principle of Operation:
The RIGHTEST Blood Glucose Monitoring System Max Tel is designed to quantitatively measure the glucose concentration in fresh capillary whole blood. The glucose measurement is achieved by using the amperometric detection method that uses glucose dehydrogenase flavin-adenine dinucleotide (GDH-FAD) based chemistry. When a drop of blood is applied to the test strip it is pulled into the test strip through capillary action. Glucose in the sample reacts with test strip chemistry generating electrons and producing a current that is proportional to the glucose concentration in the sample. After the reaction time, the detected current is calculated by the meter and the resulting glucose concentration is displayed by the meter. The RIGHTEST Blood Glucose Monitoring System Max Tel system reports glucose results as plasma glucose.
## C Instrument Description Information:
1. Instrument Name:
RIGHTEST Blood Glucose Meter Max Tel
2. Specimen Identification:
There is no sample identification function with this device. Samples are applied directly to the test strip as they are collected.
3. Specimen Sampling and Handling:
Fresh capillary whole blood from user's fingertips, palm, or forearm. Samples are to be tested immediately upon collection. The whole blood sample is applied directly to the test strip by capillary action.
4. Calibration:
No user calibration is required. The meter is automatically coded.
5. Quality Control:
Three levels of control solution (Level 1, Level 2, Level 4) are for use to perform quality control testing to check whether the system is working properly. Instructions on when to perform a control test, details about the control solution, performing a control test, understanding out-of-range control results are provided in the labeling. User needs to enter the control solution mode (CS mode) on the meter to perform a quality control test. Control solution ranges are printed on the test strip vial label.
This medical device product has functions subject to FDA premarket review as well as functions that are not subject to FDA premarket review. For this application, if the product has functions

VII Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
A Analytical Performance:
1. Precision/Reproducibility:
Previously established in K231192.
2. Linearity:
The linearity study provided in K231192 supports the sponsor’s claimed glucose measurement range of 20 - 600 mg/dL.
The meter displays “LO” with glucose values below 20 mg/dL and “HI” with glucose values over 600 mg/dL. The LO and HI functions were validated and were demonstrated to function as intended.
3. Analytical Specificity/Interference:
Previously established in K231192. The sponsor has included the following in the labeling: The sponsor has the following statements in their labeling:
- If you have a condition, such as kidney disease or gout, that may cause your blood levels of uric acid to rise to more than 12 mg/dL, the results from your meter may not be correct.
- If you are taking a high level of vitamin C (ascorbic acid level in your blood > 3 mg/dL), your blood glucose results may not be reliable. If you are unsure, ask your doctor.
- If you have a condition, such as jaundice, that may cause your blood levels of Conjugated Bilirubin to rise to more than 30 mg/dL, the results from your meter may not be correct.
- Do not test your blood glucose during or soon after a xylose absorption test. Xylose in the blood can give inaccurate results with this meter.

Accuracy at Extreme Glucose Values:
To supplement the previous accuracy performance studies conducted in K231192 and support the broader measuring range claim (from previously cleared 50-550 mg/dL in K231192 to 20-600 mg/dL) an additional extreme glucose study was performed using 113 capillary blood samples to assess the accuracy of the Rightest Blood Glucose Monitoring System Max Tel at the extreme glucose concentrations at the extreme lower and upper ends of the measuring range. Of the 113 samples, 72 were altered by glycolysis or spiking to achieve appropriate glucose concentrations to achieve 53 samples ranging from 20.4 to 77.4 mg/dL glucose and 60 samples with glucose concentrations ranging from 257 to 599 mg/dL (as measured by YSI 2300). Each sample was measured on the candidate device and results compared to results obtained on the YSI 2300 analyzer. Results are summarized in the table below:
| For glucose concentrations < 80 mg/dL | | | |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Within ±5% | Within ±10% | Within ±15% | Within ±20% |
| 42/53 (79.2%) | 50/53 (94.3%) | 53/53 (100.0%) | 53/53 (100.0%) |
| For glucose concentrations > 250 mg/dL | | | |
| Within ±5% | Within ±10% | Within ±15% | Within ±20% |
| 51/60 (85.0%) | 59/60 (98.3%) | 60/60 (100.0%) | 56/60 (100.0%) |
