L. Test Principle:
The Rightest Blood Glucose Monitoring System, Model GM700 uses electrochemical methodologies. The system quantitatively measures blood glucose levels using an amperometric method. The system employs flavin adenine dinucleotide-glucose dehydrogenase (GDH-FAD) enzyme chemistry. The electrons generated during this reaction are transferred from the blood to the electrodes. The magnitude of the resultant current is proportional to the concentration of glucose in the specimen and the signal is converted into a readout displayed on the meter.
M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
1. Analytical performance:
a. Precision/Reproducibility:
The sponsor performed within-run precision studies using venous whole blood samples spiked with five different glucose concentrations (30 to 50, 51 to 110, 111 to 150, 151 to 250, 251 to 400). Each glucose level was analyzed in replicates of 10, with 3 test strip lots, and 10 meters for a total of 300 tests per each glucose level for each meter. Results are summarized below:
5
{5}
Within-run precision for glucose:
| Glucose Level (mg/dL) | Number of tests | Mean (mg/dL) | SD (mg/dL) | CV (%) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 30 to 50 | 300 | 42.8 | 1.3 | 2.97 |
| 51 to 110 | 300 | 80.1 | 2.0 | 2.46 |
| 111 to 150 | 300 | 132.6 | 2.6 | 1.93 |
| 151 to 250 | 300 | 196.3 | 3.7 | 1.88 |
| 251 to 400 | 300 | 335.8 | 5.3 | 1.57 |
Between-day precision was evaluated using five levels of glucose control solutions with concentrations (39 to 59, 107 to 145, 201 to 273, 300 to 406, and 418 to 566 mg/dL). Each sample was measured in duplicate with three test strip lots and 10 Rightest GM700 meters. These tests were performed over 20 days, for a total of 400 tests per glucose level. Results are summarized below.
Between-day precision for glucose:
| Glucose Level (mg/dL) | Number of tests | Mean (mg/dL) | SD (mg/dL) | % CV |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 39 to 59 | 300 | 49.3 | 1.5 | 2.97 |
| 107 to 145 | 300 | 127.2 | 2.9 | 2.31 |
| 201 to 273 | 300 | 237.5 | 4.3 | 1.82 |
| 300 to 406 | 300 | 354.5 | 7.0 | 1.97 |
| 418 to 566 | 300 | 496.3 | 8.6 | 1.74 |
## b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
Linearity was evaluated using three test strip lots and 15 mixed pools of venous blood samples ranging in glucose concentrations (as measured by YSI) of 3, 10, 23, 44, 92.0, 148, 190, 252, 292, 356, 391, 447, 526, 571, 620 mg/dL for test strip lots #2 and #3 and 1, 14, 21, 42, 99, 154, 216, 255, 313, 353, 405, 443, 522, 594, 641 mg/dL for test strip lot #1. Each level was measured in triplicate with each of 3 test strip lots and the values from the Rightest GM700 meter were compared with those obtained from YSI-2300. Results from regression analysis:
Test strip lot #1: $y = 0.9882x + 0.5809$ ; $R^2 = 0.9994$
Test strip lot #2: $y = 0.9932x + 0.6005$ ; $R^2 = 0.9986$
Test strip lot #3: $y = 0.9912x + 2.8143$ ; $R^2 = 0.9990$
The results of the study support the sponsor's claimed glucose measurement range of 20-600 mg/dL.
{6}
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
Traceability:
The Rightest Blood Glucose Monitoring System GM700 is traceable to the NIST SRM 917b reference material. The method comparison study was performed using the candidate device and YSI as the reference method (see Section 2.a.)
Test Strip Stability:
Test strip stability was assessed in accelerated and real time studies. Testing protocols and acceptance criteria for the Rightest Blood Glucose Test Strips GS700 were reviewed and found to be acceptable. The manufacturer claims shelf life stability of 18 months and an open-vial stability of 4 months at the recommended storage temperatures of 39°F-86°F.
Control Solution Value Assignment and Stability:
Value assignment: Five levels of aqueous control solutions (levels 1 to 5) are available for use with the Rightest GM700 test system. Value assignment for use of the control solutions with the Rightest GS700 glucose test strips is based on measurements using the YSI 2300. The values for each of the control solutions are assigned by repeat analysis using Rightest GM700 test strips and ten Rightest GM700 meters. The mean, SD and CV are used to establish the ranges for each control solution which are provided on the test strip vial label.
Stability Testing: Stability was assessed using real-time and accelerated testing for each control solution level. Protocols and acceptance criteria were reviewed and found to be acceptable to support the shelf life stability claim of 16 months and an open-vial stability claim of 3 months when stored at the recommended storage temperatures of 36°F to 86°F.
d. Detection limit:
See linearity study in Section M1b above.
e. Analytical specificity:
Interference studies were performed by spiking venous blood with two levels of glucose concentrations (60 to 100 and 150 to 300 mg/dL). Each of these samples was divided into a test pool and a control pool and each of 18 potential endogenous and exogenous interfering substances was added to the test pool. Each compound was tested at two concentrations, normal/therapeutic and high/toxic concentrations.
Each sample was analyzed 5 times with the Rightest GM700 meter and the % difference between the interferent containing sample and the control sample calculated. The sponsor defines no significant interference as ≤10%
7
{7}
difference relative to the control sample. Results are presented in the table below:

Does the applicant’s device transmit data to a computer, webserver, or mobile device using wireless transmission?
Yes ______ or No ☐
2. Software:
FDA has reviewed applicant’s Hazard Analysis and software development processes for this line of product types:
Yes ☐ or No ☐
3. Specimen Identification:
There is no sample identification function with this device. Samples are applied directly to the test strip as they are collected.
4. Specimen Sampling and Handling:
The glucose test is intended to be used with capillary whole blood from the finger, palm, and forearm only. The whole blood sample is applied directly to the test strip by capillary action.
5. Calibration:
The meter has a “Smart Auto Code Key” that is installed into the meter and contains the test strip port. The code key identifies the test strip code automatically; therefore, no coding is required by the user. The labeling includes instructions for the user to contact customer service if the Code Error symbol appears on the meter. The code key is replaceable, but only by an authorized Bionime representative.
6. Quality Control:
Five levels of aqueous glucose control solutions are available with this system. Control solution Level 2 is provided with the kit. The meter has a function for the
{11}
user to select the level of control solution they wish to run to prevent control results from being stored in the internal memory as patient results.
Recommendations on when to test the control materials are provided in the labeling. The control solution readings are not included in the average of the patient results when the measurements are performed in the "CS measurement mode". An acceptable range for each control level is printed on the test strip vial label. The user is cautioned not to use the meter if the control result falls outside these ranges.
P. Other Supportive Instrument Performance Characteristics Data Not Covered In The "Performance Characteristics" Section above:
1) Hematocrit Study: The effect of different hematocrit levels on the performance of the Rightest GM700 Blood Glucose Monitoring System was evaluated using venous whole blood samples with hematocrit levels 20, 25, 30, 40, 55, 60 and 65% spiked with glucose to achieve 6 concentrations ranging from 40 to 400 mg/dL (20 to 50, 60 to 80, 135 to 165, 180 to 220, 270 to 330, 360 to 440 mg/dL). Each sample was then tested 9 times using the Rightest GM700 glucose meter and the values were compared with those obtained from YSI-2300 analyzer. The % biases relative to YSI were acceptable within the claimed hematocrit range of 30 to 55%.
2) Altitude study: Venous whole blood samples collected from 5 volunteers and adjusted to obtain 3 glucose concentration ranges (30 to 50, 80 to 120, 240 to 360 mg/dL) were tested at 0, 3280, 6562, and 10,745 feet (0, 1000, 2000, 3275 meters) above sea level. Results were compared to YSI values. The results demonstrate acceptable bias to YSI to support the claims in the labeling that altitudes up to 10,000 feet (3048 meters) have no significant effect on blood glucose measurements from the Rightest GM700 glucose meter.
3) Sample volume study: The sponsor performed a study to verify the test strip sample volume requirement and the test strip fill error requirement established for the Rightest GM700 system. Blood samples were tested at six sample volumes (0.6, 0.65, 0.75, 0.8, 1.0 and 1.25μL) and values obtained were compared to YSI values. Results support the claimed sample volume of 1.0 μL and the error code for insufficient sample volume.
4) Temperature and humidity studies: The sponsor performed temperature and humidity studies using venous blood samples to evaluate temperatures ranging from 6.3°C to 43.6°C and relative humidity from 11% to 92%. Meter results were compared to YSI values. Six temperature and humidity combinations were tested including low temperature/low humidity, low temperature/high humidity, average temperature/low humidity, average temperature/high humidity, high temperature/low humidity, and high temperature/high humidity. No significant effect (relative to YSI) was observed with the temperature and humidity combinations tested. The results support the claims in the labeling that the
12
{12}
system can be used in conditions of 43 to 111°F (6 to 44°C) with relative humidity of 10 to 90%.
5) Infection Control Studies: The device is intended for single-patient use only. Discide Ultra disinfecting towelettes with EPA registration #10492-4 were validated demonstrating complete inactivation of live virus for use with the meter and lancing device. The sponsor also demonstrated that there was no change in performance or in the external materials of the meter and lancing device after 550 cleaning and disinfection cycles (one cycle includes one cleaning wipe plus one disinfecting wipe) to simulate 5 years of meter and lancing device use. Labeling was reviewed for adequate instructions for the validated cleaning and disinfection procedures.
6) EMC testing was evaluated and certified by SGS Taiwan LTD. and Verification of Compliance certificates provided.
7) Flesch-Kincaid readability assessment was conducted and the results demonstrated that the User Manual, test strip package insert and control solution package insert were written at the 8th grade level.
8) Customer service is available Monday through Friday 8:00 am to 5:00 pm PST by calling 1-888-481-8485.

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).
2. The results table
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.
