## L. Test Principle:
The U-Right TD-4279 and FORA GD 40 glucose meters, in conjunction with the same test trips (U-Right TD-4279 or FORA GD-40), utilize amperometric technology to quantitatively measure the glucose concentration in whole blood samples and in control solutions. A glucose dehydrogenase sensor based on the carbon electrode adopting the amperometric assay 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.
The reaction principle of reagent depends on following reaction equation:
$$
\text{GDH, FAD}
$$
$$
\text{Glucose} + 2 \text{ferricyanide} = \text{gluconolactone} + 2 \text{ferrocyanide}
$$
$$
\text{electrode}

$$
\text{ferrocyanide} = \text{ferricyanide} + \text{e-}

{7}
The sponsor performed precision studies in accordance with the ISO 15197 and CLSI EP-5A. Since the U-Right TD-4279A and U-Right TD-4279B are identical devices as well as FORA GD40 A and FORA GD40 B, which differ only in data transmission function (A - USB model; B - Bluetooth model), the precision studies were performed to evaluate precision of the glucose meters with more complex data transmission function, the U-Right TD-4279B and FORA GD40 B models. The within-run precision study was performed using venous whole blood samples, with hematocrit ranging from 38% to 54%, and dextrose spiked to create 7 levels of blood glucose. Three lots of test strips and 10 meters were used in the study, with 10 tests performed on each meter for a total of 300 tests per blood glucose level. Results for each test strip lot are summarized in the tables below:

b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
The sponsor performed linearity studies using adjusted whole blood samples with 11 different glucose concentrations covering the measuring range entirely and using both devices, U-Right TD-4279 (B model) and FORA GD40 (B model) and the YSI-2300 glucose analyzer (reference method). Three lots of test strips were used in the study with 20 tests per lot performed on each meter. Linear regression analysis for each test strip lot is summarized below:
U-Right TD-4279:
Lot 1 $y = 0.9833x + 6.2548, r^2 = 0.9974$
Lot 2 $y = 0.9734x + 7.5126, r^2 = 0.9981$
Lot 3 $Y = 0.9707x + 8.0857, r^2 = 0.9952$
FORA GD40:
Lot 1 $y = 1.0339x - 0.5722, r^2 = 0.9944$
Lot 2 $y = 1.0109x + 2.1511, r^2 = 0.9952$
Lot 3 $Y = 1.0089 + 5.2186, r^2 = 0.9879$
The measuring range of the U-Right TD-4279 and FORA GD40 is 20 - 600 mg/dL.
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
The method comparison was performed using the proposed devices and YSI 2300 glucose analyzer.
Controls: Control solutions were cleared in k093724. The control ranges are listed on the test strip vial labels.
The storage claims for these devices are: 90 days for open vial of strips stored at $35.6 - 89.6^{\circ}\mathrm{F}$ $(2 - 32^{\circ}\mathrm{C})$ and 18 months for unopened vials of strips stored at the same temperature. The study protocol, data and acceptance criteria were provided and found to be adequate.
Temperature and humidity studies: Temperature and humidity studies were conducted on each type of meter (U-Right TD-4279 and FORA GD40) with venous blood samples spanning the measuring range and demonstrating that these devices can be used at temperatures of 4 to $40^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$ and at a relative humidity up to $85\%$. The study protocol, data and individual bias of $\pm 10\%$ across the entire measuring range were provided and found to be adequate.
Open-vial-in-use test strip studies were performed at the combined extremes of $10 \pm 2^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ (46.4-56.3°F) RH: $30\%$, $10 \pm 2^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ RH: $85\%$, $40 \pm 2^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ (100.4-107.6°F) RH: $30\%$, and $40 \pm 2^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ RH: $85\%$ with venous blood samples with concentrations across the measuring range and compared to the YSI. The study protocol, data and individual bias of $\pm 10\%$ across the entire measuring range were provided and found to be adequate.

d. Detection limit:
The measuring range of the devices is $20 - 600\mathrm{mg / dL}$ . This range was validated via the linearity study (see section M.1.b.).
e. Analytical specificity:
The sponsor performed interference studies with spiked venous blood samples at two glucose concentrations (100 and $300\mathrm{mg / dL}$ ) that were prepared and divided into a test (dosed) pool and a control pool. The interferents were added to the sample and each sample was analyzed in duplicate using 4 U - Right TD-4279 and FORA GD40 glucose meters. The table below lists all substances tested at concentrations with insignificant (<10%) interference:

Hematocrit Study:
A study to evaluate the effect of hematocrit was conducted on samples with 8 glucose concentrations at 11 hematocrit levels (20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65 and 70%). Each glucose level/hematocrit combination was tested in duplicate of 6 of each type of meter (U-Right TD-4279 and FORA GD40) using one lot of test strips. Results of samples at each hematocrit level were compared to samples with the same glucose concentration at normal (40%) hematocrit as well as to the corresponding YSI value. All individual results for each meter type were +/- 15% of the YSI, supporting the claimed hematocrit range of 20-70%.

2. Comparison studies:
a. Method comparison with predicate device:
The sponsor conducted a combined accuracy and consumer study. Testing was performed at 3 sites, with trained operators and a total of 146 lay-users. Each lay user participant performed their own fingerstick and tested their blood on the U-Right TD-4279 and FORA GD40 (TD-4272) meters using only the instructions in the user's manual and test strip insert. A trained operator then performed a second fingerstick and tested the blood on the same meter. Venous blood was also collected and measured on an YSI analyzer. The total range of samples tested was 32-539 mg/dL for the U-Right TD-4279 meter and 32 to 512 mg/dL for the FORA GD40 (TD-4272) glucose meter. Samples <40 mg/dL and >400 mg/dL were glycolyzed or spiked, respectively, and tested by trained operators as well as lay users. Linear regression results are presented below:
U-Right TD-4279:
Professional vs YSI y = 1.0452x + 2.2323, r² = 0.9954
Lay user vs. YSI y = 1.0701x - 2.0936, r² = 0.9951
FORA GD40 (TD-4272):
Professional vs YSI y = 1.0644x - 3.4426, r² = 0.9574
Lay user vs. YSI y = 1.0819x - 7.6905, r² = 0.9680
The study results met the ISO 15197 accuracy criteria where ninety-five percent (95%) of the individual glucose results fell within ±15mg/dL of the YSI results at glucose concentrations <75mg/dL and within ±20% at glucose concentrations ≥75mg/dL.

# b. Matrix comparison:
Venous blood samples:
Testing was done comparing venous blood samples previously collected in commercially available sodium-heparin tubes and then evaluated with the U-Right TD-4279 and FORA GD40 against YSI-2300. 100 subjects were tested by professionals. Samples from 25 to $560\mathrm{mg / dL}$ for the U-Right TD-4279 BGM and 22 to $584\mathrm{mg / dL}$ for the FORA GD40 were included in this analysis. Each fresh capillary whole blood sample used was from a different individual except for samples with blood glucose concentrations less than 40 $\mathrm{mg / dL}$ and greater than $400\mathrm{mg / dL}$ . For those specimens, a pooled capillary whole blood specimen was either glycolyzed or spiked to the desired level. Linear regression results are presented below:
{16}
U-Right TD-4279: $y = 0.9912x + 0.6364, r^2 = 0.9826$
FORA GD40/TD-4272: $y = 0.9769x + 2.0365, r^2 = 0.9803$
The study results met the ISO 15197 accuracy criteria where ninety-five percent (95%) of the individual glucose results fell within ±15mg/dL of the YSI results at glucose concentrations <75mg/dL and within ±20% at glucose concentrations ≥75mg/dL.

P. Other Supportive Instrument Performance Characteristics Data Not Covered In The "Performance Characteristics" Section above:
1. These devices are intended for single-patient use (U- RIGHT TD-4279A/B and FORA GD 40a/b/TD-4247A/B) and multiple patient use/healthcare professional use (U- RIGHT TD-4279A/B MULTI and FORA Wisdom GD 40a/b/TD-4247A/B). Cleaning and disinfection are different processes. Cleaning is the process of removing dirt (e.g. food debris, grease, dust), disinfection is the process of killing germs (e.g. bacteria and viruses). Disinfection studies (viral efficacy studies) were performed by an outside service to evaluate the virus elimination effectiveness of disinfecting wipes in preventing the spread of bloodborne pathogens, particularly hepatitis B virus (HBV). Specifically, MicroKill+ cleaner disinfectant towels (with EPA registration # 59894-10-37549) were validated demonstrating complete inactivation of live virus. The sponsor does not market a lancing device for use with the device. The sponsor also performed robustness studies using all 4 glucose meters claimed in this 510(k) application (U- RIGHT TD-4279A, U- RIGHT TD-4279B, FORA GD 40a/TD-4247A and FORA GD 40b/TD-4247B) and demonstrated that there was no change in performance or in the external materials of the meters after 10,000 cleaning and disinfection cycles designed to simulate 5 years (5 cleaning and disinfection cycles per day) of single patient device use or 3 years (9 cleaning and disinfection cycles per day) of healthcare professional use. The tested number of cycles is estimated by 5 cleaning and disinfection cycles per day over 5 years, the expected life of the single patient device or 9 cycles per day for the multiple patient use in professional settings. In addition, the sponsor provided a risk analysis specific to the potential harm due to infection. Labeling has been reviewed for adequate instructions in validated cleaning and disinfection procedures.
2. Lay-User Study for USB and Bluetooth mediated Data Transmission: This study was performed using 50 study participants, following instructions in
19
{19}
User's manual, who were able to transmit results from the meter to the PC application (cleared under k070941) via either the USB (25 study subjects) or Bluetooth (25 study subjects) features. The study participants also completed a questionnaire in response to whether the data transmission feature is easy to use. The sponsor concluded that the users' responses indicated that data transmission function was easy to operate by following the User's manuals for both the USB and the Bluetooth mediated data transmission.
3. Altitude study: An altitude study was performed in an altitude simulation chamber with whole blood samples spanning the range of ~20 to 600 mg/dL for both, U-Right TD-4279 and FORA GD40 glucose meters. The study protocol, data and bias ±10% across the entire measuring range were provided and found to be adequate. Altitude up to 10,742 feet (3,275m) does not affect test results of the U-RIGHT TD-4279 and FORA GD40 glucose meters.
4. Specimen volume study: A study was performed to evaluate the effect of different sample volumes (0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 2.0 and 2.5μl) on the performance of these devices. It was determined that the 1.1 μl volume of sample provides accurate reading for both, U-RIGHT TD-4279 and FORA GD40 glucose meters. The results from this study for the sample volume of 1.1 μl were within ±10% individual bias across the entire measuring range when U-RIGHT TD-4279 and FORA GD40 measurements were compared to the YSI-2300.
5. The sponsor provided a readability study and obtained Flesch-Kincaid grade level scores of 8 or lower for the User's Manual and test strip insert.
6. Lay user questionnaire: 146 lay users evaluated the ease of use of the device and the presentation of the labeling. All users thought that the U-Right TD-4279 and FORA GD40 Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems were easy to use and most answer "easy" and "very easy" that the user manuals were written to make it easy to use.
7. Additional electromagnetic interference study was performed to verify these new products. The results of this study complied with standards listed in the Standard/Guidance Document Referenced section above. Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): EMC testing for u-Right TD-4279 and FORA GD40 was performed/passed and a certificate to TaiDoc was provided.
Q. Proposed Labeling:
The labeling is sufficient and it satisfies the requirements of 21 CFR Part 809.10.
R. Conclusion:
The submitted information in this premarket notification is complete and supports a substantial equivalence decision.

1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).

Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
