Technological Characteristics
Blood glucose monitoring system; battery-powered (single lithium battery). Dimensions: 88Lx30Wx14.5H mm. Materials validated for chemical resistance to Clorox Germicidal wipes. No data transmission capability.
Indications for Use
Indicated for single-patient use for blood glucose monitoring.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A glucose test system is a device intended to measure glucose quantitatively in blood and other body fluids. Glucose measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders including diabetes mellitus, neonatal hypoglycemia, and idiopathic hypoglycemia, and of pancreatic islet cell carcinoma.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is solely intended for use as a drink to test glucose tolerance, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.

Intended Use: The CareSens N Mini Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertips and alternative sites such as the forearm, palm, thigh, and calf. Alternative site testing should be used only during steadystate blood glucose conditions. The CareSens N Mini Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for self testing outside the body (in vitro) by people with diabetes at home as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control. The system is intended to be used by a single person and should not be shared. It is not intended for use on neonates and is not for the diagnosis or screening of diabetes.
> The CareSens N Single Blood Glucose Test Strips are for use with the CareSens N Mini Blood Glucose Meter to quantitatively measure glucose in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertips and alternative sites.
> The CareSens Control Solutions are for use with the CareSens N Mini Meter and CareSens N Single Test Strips to check that the meter and the test strips are working together properly and that the test is performing correctly.
- The CareSens N Mini Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS) measures Device Description: the glucose level in whole blood samples using a small electrical current generated in the test strips. The system consists of the following: the CareSens N Mini Meter, CareSens N Single Test Strips, CareSens Control Solutions with two different glucose concentrations ("Control A" and "Control B" ranges, sold separately}, Lancing Device, Lancets, User's Manual, Quick Reference Guide and Logbook.

same to the predicate device:
- intended use
- . measurement principle
- 1 fundamental scientific technology
- operating ranges
The modifications on the CareSens N BGMS to make a CareSens N Mini BGMS are:
- The meter appearance, the number of required batteries and memory capacity of the Meter
- 트 Removal of the data transmission, data averaging and meter setting functions
The test strip is the same as that of the predicate system - the only difference is in the name (CareSens N Test Strip vs. CareSens N Single Test Strip).
Type of Test: Quantitative, Amperometric method, Glucose oxidase (Aspergillus sp.)
Test Principle: The reagent on the test strip produces a small electrical current using glucose as a substrate in the blood sample. The Meter converts the electrical current to a concentration of glucose.
Technological The CareSens N Mini BGMS has the same fundamental scientific technology Characteristics: as the predicate device.
The basic features of the CareSens N Mini BGMS are all the same with the Assessment of Performance predicate device except for the meter's appearance and output value (including the memory capacity). The CareSens N Mini BGMS uses the same Characteristics: test strips (just a different name) and control solutions being used in the CareSens N BGMS. So, its performance, safety and effectiveness have not changed from the predicate device. However, in order to confirm the modifications have not introduced any adverse effect validation testing including the meter function test and system accuracy test were conducted.
{3}------------------------------------------------
And to evaluate the usability the newly designed CareSens N Mini meter, the human factor study were conducted. The result indicates that the modified. meter is as ease to use as the predicate device.
Summary of Disinfection studies were performed on the CareSens N Mini meter and Pre-cleaning and lancing device by an outside commercial testing service to determine the Disinfection: robustness of the meter and lancing device to the recommended pre-cleaning and disinfection protocol, and its effectiveness in preventing the spread of blood-borne pathogens, using hepatitis B virus (HBV). CLOROX GERMICIDAL Wipes (EPA Reg. No: 67619-12) was validated for complete inactivation of live virus inoculated on the materials of the meter and lancing device. We have also demonstrated that 260 each of pre-cleaning and disinfection cycles designed to simulate 5 years of use has affected neither the performance nor on the external materials for the meter and lancing device.
#### Conclusion:
Based on the information provided in this submission, the CareSens N Mini BGMS is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. A candidate device CareSens N Mini BGMS has met the performance, safety, and effectiveness of the device for its intended use.
