L. Test Principle:
The On Call® Chosen Blood Glucose Monitoring System employs glucose oxidase enzyme chemistry as the standard dry reagent assay for glucose in whole blood. This enzyme assay, with a redox chemical “mediator” reaction, is used to generate an electrical current proportional to the glucose concentration in the blood sample. The system is designed as an amperometric measurement device using current generated from the redox reaction as the measurable response.
M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
1. Analytical performance:
a. Precision/Reproducibility:
Within-run precision was measured by using heparinized anti-coagulated whole blood at five different glucose concentrations. Each sample was tested on 3 lots of test strips on 30 meters (10 meters per test strip lot). Ten replicates were tested per meter, test strip lot, and glucose concentration, (N=100 per test strip). Results are summarized below:
Within-run precision for glucose:
| Glucose Level (mg/dL) | Strip Lot | Mean (mg/dL) | SD (mg/dL) | % CV |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 40 | 1 | 42.0 | 1.48 | 3.5 |

# b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
Linearity study was designed based on CLSI EP6-A guideline. Eleven human whole blood samples were drawn into heparinized tubes and spiked to the target analyte levels. 11 target levels were prepared with glucose concentrations ranging from 20 to $650\mathrm{mg / dL}$ (20, 30, 50, 80, 100, 170, 220, 330, 450, 550, and $650\mathrm{mg / dL}$ ). All samples were tested on 3 lots of test strips in replicates of four on two different On Call Chosen meters. All samples were also tested on the YSI 2300 analyzer to generate the expected values. The observed values were plotted against the expected values and an appropriate line fitted by standard linear regression was generated with results summarized below:
| Strip Lot | Slope | Intercept | R | R² | Samples range tested |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1 | 1.0167 | -0.3519 | 0.9988 | 0.9976 | 14.8-673.8 mg/dL |
| 2 | 1.0283 | -4.4780 | 0.9984 | 0.9969 | 13.5-677.8 mg/dL |
| 3 | 1.0196 | -1.4033 | 0.9988 | 0.9977 | 14.5-671.8 mg/dL |
The results of the study support the sponsor's claim that the glucose assay is linear from $20 - 600\mathrm{mg / dL}$ .
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
{6}
Traceability: On Call Chosen Blood Glucose Monitoring System is traceable to the NIST SRM 917b reference material.
Value assignment:
The value assignment of the On Call Chosen control solutions were determined by an in-house procedure. The control solutions were prepared by gravimetric addition of glucose to achieve target values of 120 mg/dL for level 1 and 350 mg/dL for level 2 and values were confirmed by the YSI method. Verification of the control solutions were tested with 240 test strips and 2 meters with each level and the target ranges were set at the following:
| Glucose control solution | Target concentration | Acceptable range |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Level 1 (medium) | 120 mg/dL | 120 ± 20% (96-144 mg/dL) |
| Level 2 (high) | 350 mg/dL | 350 ± 20% (280-420 mg/dL) |
Control ranges are lot specific and are provided on the test strip vial.
Stability:
Accelerated stability study was conducted to assess the shelf-life and open-vial stability of the control solutions and test strips. Real-time stability studies are still on-going. Stability studies protocol and acceptance criteria were provided and found to be adequate. Unopened control solutions have a 24 month shelf life and are stable for 6 months after first use when stored at 2-30°C (36-86°F). The sponsor claimed that the unopened test strips have a 24 month shelf-life and are stable for 6 months after first use when stored at 2-30°C (36-86°F). This information is provided in the labeling of the test strips and control materials.
d. Detection limit:
See linearity study above.
e. Analytical specificity:
Interference study was designed according to CLSI EP7-A2 guideline. 25 common endogenous and exogenous interfering substances were evaluated by spiking venous blood with three levels of glucose concentrations (60, 100 and 300 mg/dL). The glucose samples were spiked with the potentially interfering compounds and tested on 3 lots of test strips using 2 different meters. Each sample is tested in replicates of four and a total of 1008 test strips were used. Bias was calculated as the mean percent difference in glucose reading
{7}
between the test and control concentration groups. The sponsor claims no significant interference if bias between the tested and the control sample is $< 10\%$ difference. A summary of the concentrations of the potential interfering substances tested is summarized in the table below:
| Interfering Substances | Therapeutic / Physiological Levels | Test Concentration | |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| | | Low | High |
| Acetaminophen | 1.0-3.0 mg/dL | 4 mg/dL | 20 mg/dL |
| Ascorbic Acid | 0.4-2.0 mg/dL | 3 mg/dL | 6 mg/dL |
| Conjugated-Bilirubin | <0.4 mg/dL | 34 mg/dL | 50 mg/dL |
| Unconjugated-Bilirubin | 0.3-1.3 mg/dL | 20 mg/dL | 40 mg/dL |
| Creatinine | 0.6-1.3 mg/dL | 1.5 mg/dL | 5 mg/dL |
| Dopamine | 0.03 mg/dL | 0.03 mg/dL | 0.09 mg/dL |
| L-Dopa (Levo-Dopa) | 0.02-0.3 mg/dL | 0.3 mg/dL | 3 mg/dL |
| Methyl Dopa | 0.1-0.75 mg/dL | 0.75 mg/dL | 1.5 mg/dL |
| Ethanol | 100-200 mg/dL | 200 mg/dL | 400 mg/dL |
| Hemoglobin | 100-200 mg/dL | 200 mg/dL | 500 mg/dL |
| Ibuprofen | 1.0-7.0 mg/dL | 7 mg/dL | 50 mg/dL |
| Mannitol | 0.0128 mg/dL | 300 mg/dL | 600 mg/dL |
| Salicylic Acid | 10-30 mg/dL | 30 mg/dL | 60 mg/dL |
| Sorbitol | 0.044mg/dL | 30 mg/dL | 70 mg/dL |
| Tetracycline | 0.2-0.5 mg/dL | 0.5 mg/dL | 1.5 mg/dL |
| Tolazamide | 2.0-2.5 mg/dL | 5.0 mg/dL | 10 mg/dL |
| Tolbutamide | 5.4-10.8 mg/dL | 11 mg/dL | 64 mg/dL |
| Uric Acid | 2.5-8.0 mg/dL | 8 mg/dL | 23.5 mg/dL |
| Galactose | 4-80 mg/dL | 78 mg/dL | 100 mg/dL |
| Maltose | 100 mg/dL | 40 mg/dL | 100 mg/dL |
| Xylose | 20-40 mg/dL | 90 mg/dL | 200 mg/dL |
| Fructose | 1-6 mg/dL | 30 mg/dL | 100 mg/dL |
| Lactose | 0.5 mg/dL | 5 mg/dL | 25 mg/dL |
| Cholesterol | 114-300 mg/dL | 250 mg/dL | 500 mg/dL |
| Triglycerides | 150-500 mg/dL | 1500 mg/dL | 3000 mg/dL |
Based on the study data, all the substances and levels tested above have $< 10\%$ bias except for ascorbic acid $>3\mathrm{mg / dL}$ (above therapeutic levels). Ascorbic acid levels $>3\mathrm{mg / dL}$ will interfere with the glucose reading; therefore, the sponsor has the following limitation in their labeling.
"Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) $\leq 3\mathrm{mg / dL}$ does not significantly affect results.
{8}
However, abnormally high concentration ( $>3\mathrm{mg/dL}$ ) in blood may cause inaccurately high glucose results."
"Critically ill patients should not be tested with blood glucose meters. Test results can be falsely low if the patients are severely dehydrated, in shock, or in hyper-osmolar state (with or without ketosis)."
f. Assay cut-off:
Not applicable.
## 2. Comparison studies:
a. Method comparison with predicate device:
System accuracy study was performed according to the ISO 15197 document using 110 participants from a diabetic clinic. A trained healthcare professional (HCP) collected samples from the fingertip, forearm and palm on each participant. Capillary samples were collected and measured on the YSI 2300 analyzer (reference method) and from the same fingersticks. One patient had a result >700; therefore, was omitted from the data analysis. In order to obtain sufficient samples in the lowest concentration interval (< 50 mg/dL), 5 additional capillary samples from fingertip were altered. Samples that were <50 mg/dL were contrived samples and samples between 50 to 497 mg/dL were natural samples (109 + 5 = 114). The range of glucose values for the fingerstick samples tested was 44.2-497 mg/dL. Forearm and palm samples were all natural patient samples and sample range tested was 52.1 to 497 mg/dL (109). All samples were tested in duplicate using 3 different lots of test strips and a total of 36 meters and only the first replicate was used for data analysis. Regression analysis results are summarized below:

b. Matrix comparison:
None. Only capillary whole blood samples are acceptable matrix.
# 3. Clinical studies:
a. Clinical Sensitivity:
Not applicable.
b. Clinical specificity:
Not applicable.
c. Other clinical supportive data (when a. and b. are not applicable):
A user performance study was conducted in conjunction with the system accuracy study. Lay users self-tested their fingertip glucose results using the labeling provided by the sponsor without any prior training. Lay user self-test results (with fingertip) and the YSI method fingerstick results were compared. Study was performed in one clinical site with 110 subjects, including $45\%$ male and $55\%$ female. 3 lots of test strips were used and each lay user tested two lots of strips randomly. One patient has a result $>700$ ; therefore, was omitted from the data analysis. The range of glucose values for the fingerstick samples was $52.2 - 497 \mathrm{mg} / \mathrm{dL}$ . Linear regressions analysis results are summarized below:
{12}
Regressions between lay user's fingerstick results and the YSI method (fingersticks):
| Strip Lot | Linear regressions | R | R² | N |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1 | Y=1.0809X – 13.6020 | 0.9905 | 0.9811 | 109 |
| 2 | Y=1.0725X – 12.760 | 0.9931 | 0.9863 | 109 |
| 3 | Y=1.0886X – 14.8270 | 0.9931 | 0.9863 | 109 |
Based on the ISO Standard 15197 document, how well the On Call® Chosen BGMS when lay user tested themselves (using fingertip) as compared with the YSI method is shown in the tables below:

| Combined | 137/288 (47.6%) | 243/288 (84.4%) | 280/288 (97.2%) | 288/288 (100%) |
Total accuracy agreement: $100\%$ of all the individual glucose results fall within $\pm 15\mathrm{mg / dL}$ of the YSI results of glucose concentration $< 75\mathrm{mg / dL}$ and within $\pm 20\%$ of the YSI results of glucose concentration $\geq 75\mathrm{mg / dL}$ .
Alterative testing sites (AST) for blood glucose measurement were evaluated during a user performance study with 110 subjects. Testing was performed by the lay user using the forearm and palm (thenar and hypothenar regions) to show comparable performance at times of steady state conditions with the fingertip glucose results measured with the YSI method. The range of glucose
{13}
values for these samples was $52.2 - 497\mathrm{mg / dL}$ (by YSI). One patient has a result $>700$ ; therefore, was omitted from the data analysis. The linear regressions were summarized below:
| AST sites | Lot | Linear regressions | R² | N |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Forearm vs. YSI | 1 | Y=1.0552X - 8.7304 | 0.9841 | 109 |

# N. Instrument Name:
On Call® Chosen blood glucose meter
{15}
O. System Descriptions:
1. Modes of Operation:
Each test strip is single use and requires a sample volume of 0.8 uL.
Does the applicant’s device contain the ability to transmit data to a computer, webserver, or mobile device?
Yes ☐ X ☐ or No ☐
Does the applicant’s device transmit data to a computer, webserver, or mobile device using wireless transmission?
Yes ☐ or No ☐ X ☐
2. Software:
FDA has reviewed applicant’s Hazard Analysis and software development processes for this line of product types:
Yes ☐ X ☐ 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. The On-Call Chosen Blood Glucose Monitoring System’s memory will store 300 test results with respective dates and time.
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.
Testing on Fingertips – Refer to the ON-Call Chosen Blood Glucose Monitoring System User’s Manual for detailed meter information prior to testing.
Testing on palm and forearm- The following important notes are listed in the package insert:
- Consult your healthcare professional before you begin using the palm or forearm for testing.
- Under certain conditions, blood glucose test results obtained using samples taken from your palm or forearm may differ significantly from fingertip samples. Do not use palm or forearm testing when your blood glucose is changing rapidly such as following a meal, an insulin dose, or
16
{16}
associated with physical exercise.
- Alternative site testing (AST) should not be used to calibrate continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) nor for use in insulin dose calculations.
5. Calibration:
There is no calibration required for the On Call® Chosen meter by the user. The meter is plasma-calibrated. However, there is a code chip that is coded with the calibration information that comes with each test strip vial. The code chip automatically calibrates the meter with the code number when inserted into the meter. The code chip must match the lot number on the test strip before running a glucose test.
6. Quality Control:
Glucose control solutions at two different concentrations (level 1 and level 2) are available to be run with this device and are sold separately. One level of control solution (level 1) is provided with the kit. The meter has an algorithm to automatically recognize the control solutions 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. 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. A usability study was performed to assess the readability of the labeling by recruiting 110 lay users (aged 21-82 yrs old) who were provided with the test kit containing labeling for the US market. Participants varied in age, education, country of origin, and were about evenly divided between men and women. These lay users also completed a questionnaire to assess whether the device is easy to use and if the Instructions for use were written in a way that makes it easy to use. The majority of the users responded that the device is very easy to use.
2. Flesch-Kincaid readability assessment was conducted and the results showed that the labeling (User's Manual, test strip package insert, control solution package insert, and Quick Guides) were written at $\leq 8^{\text{th}}$ grade level.
3. Customer service is available 24/7, 365 days a year. Toll free phone number is 1-800-838-9502 for customer support.
4. A sample volume study was performed to verify the test strip sample volume requirement and the test strip fill error requirement established for the On Call® Chosen BGMS. Three lots of test strips were tested using blood from three
17
{17}
donors, each adjusted to a glucose concentration of 60, 100 and 500 mg/dL. Blood at each concentration was applied to strips at five target sample volumes of 0.4, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8 and 1.0 μL. Protocols and acceptance criteria were provided and found to be acceptable. The sponsor concluded that sample volume of ≥0.8 μL produced accurate results and samples <0.8 μL give an error code (“E5”-insufficient sample).
5. Temperature and humidity operating conditions were evaluated for temperatures ranging from 5°C to 45°C and relative humidity from 10% to 90%. Extreme temperatures and humidity conditions combinations were tested as follows: 10%/5°C, 10%/45°C, 90%/5°C, and 90%/45°C. Protocol and acceptance criteria were provided and found to be acceptable. (% bias for all individual result against YSI results are within ±10% bias). The results supported the Sponsor’s claimed operating temperature from 5°C to 45°C (41°F to 113°F) and relative humidity range from 10% to 90%.
6. EMC testing was evaluated by TUV Rheinland Co., Ltd. and test report summary was issued to ACON Laboratories, Inc. on January 31, 2011.
7. The device is intended for single-patient use only. DisCide Ultra Disinfecting Towelette with EPA registration # 10492-4 was validated demonstrating complete inactivation of live hepatitis B virus (HBV) for use with the meter. The towelette is available for purchase through Palmero Health Care Company and user can either call 1-800-344-6424 or visit their website at www.palmerohealth.com. The sponsor also demonstrated that there was no change in performance or in the external materials of the meter after 1642 cleaning cycles and 1642 disinfection cycles designed to simulate 4.5 years of device use. Labeling was reviewed for adequate instructions for the validated cleaning and disinfection procedures.
8. The optional RS 232 data transmitting port was reviewed and found to be adequate to support the use of transmitting data to a Data Management Software. The Data Management Software has been previously cleared in k101371.
9. Hematocrit Study - The sponsor performed hematocrit studies using eight different hematocrits (Hct) (20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 65 and 70%) levels across the glucose measuring range (20-600 mg/dL). At each hematocrit level, 4 samples at glucose concentration of 50, 100, 250, and 500 mg/dL were tested against the YSI method. 3 lots of test strips were tested on 2 meters, with replicates of three for each concentration tested and the values were compared to the YSI method and the nominal hematocrit level (40%). All results generated from the On Call Chosen glucose meter had a bias of <10% when compared to the YSI method and the nominal hematocrit level. Based on the data, the sponsor claims that hematocrit between 20% to 70% do not significantly affect the glucose results.
10. Altitude Study - A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of altitude on the On Call® Chosen BGMS. 3 lots of test strips were tested on 16 meters using
18
{18}
blood from three donors at three glucose concentrations (70, 240, and 450 mg/dL) at one high altitude level (8,516 feet), and sea level (0 feet) as a control. Testing was performed in a hyperbaric chamber. Each venous blood sample was also tested by the YSI 2300 analyzer. The meter readings obtained were compared to the YSI method and the percent bias was determined at each level against the YSI results. Bias was within ± 10% for all three altitude levels tested. Based on the data, the sponsor claims that the On Call® Chosen BMGS can be used at altitude up to 8,516 feet.

Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
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.
