Indications for Use
The EME Self Monitoring Blood Glucose System is intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood from fingertip, palm, or forearm. Testing is done outside the body (In Vitro diagnostic use). It is indicated for use at home (over the counter [OTC]) by a single patient with diabetes and should not be shared, as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control. The system is not to be used on neonates, nor for the diagnosis of, or screening for diabetes mellitus. Alternative site testing can be only used during steady-state blood glucose conditions. The system consists of the EME meter and the EME test strips. The EME meter only is used with the EME test strips to quantitatively measure glucose in fresh capillary whole blood from fingertip, palm, or forearm. The EME Glucose Control Solution For use with EME Blood Glucose Self Monitoring System as a quality control check to verify the accuracy of blood glucose test results. The EME Pro Self Monitoring Blood Glucose System is intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in venous whole blood or fresh capillary whole blood from fingertip. Testing is done outside the body (In Vitro diagnostic use). It is intended for multiple-patient use in professional healthcare settings as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control. The system is only used with single-use lancing devices. The system is not to be used on neonates, nor for the diagnosis of, or screening for diabetes mellitus. The system consists of the EME Pro meter and the EME Pro test strips. The EME Pro meter only is used with the EME Pro test strips to quantitatively measure glucose in venous whole blood or fresh capillary whole blood from fingertip. The EME Glucose Control Solution For use with the EME Pro Blood Glucose Self Monitoring System as a quality control check to verify the accuracy of blood glucose test results.
Device Story
The EME and EME Pro systems are blood glucose monitoring devices. They utilize test strips to measure glucose concentrations in fresh capillary (fingertip, palm, forearm) or venous whole blood. The system consists of a meter and test strips, supported by a control solution for accuracy verification. The EME system is designed for single-patient home use, while the EME Pro is intended for multiple-patient use in professional clinical settings. Users apply a blood sample to the test strip, which the meter analyzes to provide a quantitative glucose reading. This output assists healthcare providers and patients in monitoring diabetes control. The devices are not intended for neonatal use or diabetes diagnosis.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Disinfection efficacy studies demonstrated complete inactivation of Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) using PDI Super SANI-CLOTH Germicidal wipes. Robustness testing confirmed no performance degradation after 20,000 disinfection cycles for the meter and 14,600 cycles for the lancing device.
Technological Characteristics
Glucose test system (21 CFR 862.1345). Consists of a meter, test strips, and control solution. Measures glucose in capillary or venous whole blood. Intended for in vitro diagnostic use.
Indications for Use
Indicated for single patient home use (EME Self Monitoring Blood Glucose System) and multiple patient use in a professional healthcare setting (EME Pro Self Monitoring Blood Glucose System) 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.
