Intended Use

The InPen dose calculator, a component of the InPen app, is indicated for the management of diabetes by people with diabetes age 12 and older by calculating an insulin dose or carbohydrate intake based on user entered data. Prior to use, a healthcare professional must provide the patient-specific target blood glucose, insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio, and insulin sensitivity parameters to be programmed into the software.

Device Story

InPen Dose Calculator is a software component of the InPen app for patients on multiple daily injection (MDI) therapy. It calculates mealtime insulin doses or carbohydrate intake based on user-entered data and clinician-programmed parameters (target blood glucose, insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio, insulin sensitivity). The app tracks residual bolus insulin to mitigate insulin stacking. It receives data via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) from the InPen injector or manual entry. The device is used by patients to assist in insulin dosing decisions; it does not control insulin delivery or blood glucose measurements. It provides reports, graphs, and an electronic logbook. The software is classified as a major level of concern.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Software verification and validation were performed according to FDA guidance for major level of concern software. Risk management followed ISO 14971. Insulin-on-board calculations are based on the published study by Mudaliar et al. (1999).

Technological Characteristics

Software-based dose calculator; operates on Android platform; uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) for connectivity; major level of concern software; incorporates insulin-on-board tracking based on Mudaliar et al. (1999) model; complies with ISO 14971:2007/2010 for risk management.

Indications for Use

Indicated for diabetes management in patients age 12 and older. Requires healthcare professional to program patient-specific target blood glucose, insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio, and insulin sensitivity parameters.

Regulatory Classification

PREDICATE DEVICES InPen® System (K160629) This predicate has not been subject to a design-related recall. No reference devices were used in this submission. The predicate 510(k) submission for the InPen System was a bundled submission with a pen injector and insulin dose calculator. The K181327 submission is demonstrating equivalence to the predicate insulin dose calculator device cleared under K160629. #### IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION The InPen app is designed to manage the wireless transfer of insulin dose data from the InPen, log insulin dose data, and provide a dose calculator to aid mealtime insulin dose calculations. The insulin dose calculations provided by the app are meant for patients undergoing multiple daily injection (MDI) therapy. The InPen app is not intended to serve as an accessory to an insulin pump. #### V. INDICATIONS FOR USE The InPen dose calculator, a component of the InPen app, is indicated for the management of diabetes by people with diabetes age 12 and older by calculating an insulin dose or carbohydrate intake based on user entered data. Prior to use, a healthcare professional must provide the patient-specific target blood glucose, insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio, and insulin sensitivity parameters to be programmed into the software. #### VI. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE {4}------------------------------------------------ The InPen dose calculator is substantially equivalent to other legally marketed dose calculators. Specifically, the InPen dose calculator is substantially equivalent to the InPen dose calculator (K160629) cleared on July 26, 2016. The InPen dose calculator has the same intended use and indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as the previously cleared predicate device. A substantial equivalence chart of the similarities and differences between the InPen dose calculator and the predicate device is shown in Table 1. The minor differences in technological characteristics do not change the intended use or raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. | Table 1 | | | |------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------| | Attribute | Subject Device<br>(InPen) | Predicate Device<br>(K160629) | | Classification | (Class II - NDC - 21 CFR §868.1890) | Same | | Indications For Use | The InPen dose calculator, a component of the InPen<br>app, is indicated for the management of diabetes by<br>people with diabetes age 12 and older by calculating<br>an insulin dose or carbohydrate intake based on user<br>entered data.

Performance Data ## Risk Analysis A risk analysis was completed to account for potential new hazards associated with the device's intended use, including both hardware and software hazards related to the Android version of the InPen dose calculator. All design controls implemented to mitigate risks were verified and validated. - Risk analysis was conducted according to ANSI/AAMI/ISO 14971:2007®2010 – Medical Devices - Application of risk management to medical devices ## Software Verification and Validation Testing Software verification and validation testing were conducted and documentation was provided as recommended by FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices." The software for this device was considered as a "major" level of concern, since a failure or latent flaw in the software could directly result in serious injury or death to the patient or operator. Companion Medical has demonstrated the InPen dose calculator is appropriate for its intended use through the use of hazard analysis according ISO 14971. The dose calculator uses the standard approach using healthcare provider specified insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio and insulin sensitivity factors for making calculations. In addition, the calculator includes a consideration for insulin on-board based on the published study by Mudaliar, et.al. (1999) for the duration of insulin action. Software information was provided as recommended in the following FDA guidance documents: - . Content of Premarket Submissions for Management of Cybersecurity in Medical Devices - Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff - . Guidance for Industry - Cybersecurity for Networked Medical Devices Containing Offthe-Shelf (OTS) Software - Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices - General Principles of Software Validation; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff ## Human Factors Human factors validation data was provided in K160629, consistent with the recommendations provided in FDA guidance document, Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Medical Devices - Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff. Changes to any user interface elements for all critical tasks were evaluated and it was determined that use-related risks associated with the changes are negligible. #### VIII. CONCLUSIONS The subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. It has the same intended use/indications for use, and substantially equivalent technological characteristics and principles of operation.
