Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose Test Systems for Over-the-Counter-Use: Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff. Issued: October 11, 2016.
CLSI EP07-A2, Interference Testing in Clinical Chemistry; Approved Guideline - Second Edition (2005).
IEC 60601-1, Medical electrical equipment - Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance.
L. Test Principle:
The system measures glucose amperometrically. The reaction of glucose oxidase and potassium ferricyanide in the test strip with glucose in the sample produces an electrical current which is proportional to the amount of glucose in the sample. The meter measures the current and converts it to the corresponding glucose concentration, which is displayed on the meter.
M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
The only differences between the RIGHTEST Wiz and the RIGHTEST Wiz Plus Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems are the names of the systems and meters and the addition of a Bluetooth communication module to the RIGHTEST Wiz Plus meter. All performance evaluations below were performed using the RIGHTEST Wiz Plus system to represent both systems.
1. Analytical performance:
a. Precision/Reproducibility:
Within-run precision studies were performed using venous whole blood samples of 5 glucose levels (30-50, 51-110, 111-150, 151-250, 251-400 mg/dL). Samples were tested ten times with each of three lots of single test strips with 10 meters for a total of 300 tests per glucose concentration. Results are summarized below:
| Glucose Level (mg/dL) | Lot | Mean (mg/dL) | SD (mg/dL) | CV (%) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 30-50 | 1 | 38.7 | 1.1 | 2.8 |

| | 2 | 329.4 | 4.7 | 1.4 |
| | 3 | 329.7 | 4.5 | 1.4 |
Intermediate (between run) precision was evaluated using five levels of glucose control solutions, 3 test strip lots, and 10 meters. Each control solution level was measured once a day for 10 days with each meter and test strip lot, for a total of 100 replicates per control solution level per test strip lot for a total of 300 replicates for each glucose control level. Results are summarized below:
| Control Solution Level (mg/dL) | Lot | Mean (mg/dL) | SD (mg/dL) | CV (%) |

| | 3 | 280.5 | 3.7 | 1.3 |
b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
Linearity was assessed with three lots of Blood Glucose Test Strip GS570. Each test strip lot was tested with three Rightest Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems Wiz Plus using blood samples spiked to 14 target analyte levels (18.6, 29.2, 62.8, 104.0, 160.5, 225.0, 277, 325.5, 365.5, 413, 449.5, 544, 569, 612.5 mg/dL). Each sample was measured in triplicate with each Rightest Blood Glucose Monitoring System GM570 and measured in duplicate with a laboratory-based comparator method (YSI 2300 glucose analyzer). The evaluation yielded the following regression equations for the three lots based on all samples:
Lot 1: $y = 0.9922x + 1.1243$ , $R^2 = 0.9996$
Lot 2: $y = 0.9927x + 1.2096$ , $R^2 = 0.9996$
Lot 3: $y = 0.9936x + 1.1132$ , $R^2 = 0.9996$
{6}
Lots combined: $y = 0.9921x + 1.4666$ , $R^2 = 0.9995$
The results of the study support the sponsor's claimed glucose measuring range of 20-600 mg/dL. The meter displays "Lo" with glucose values below 20mg/dL, and "HI" with glucose values over 600 mg/dL. The "Lo" and "Hi" functions were validated and demonstrated to function as intended.
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
# Traceability
The Rightest Blood Glucose Monitoring System Wiz and Rightest Blood Glucose Monitoring System Wiz Plus traceable to the NIST SRM 917c glucose reference material.
# Test Strip Stability
Test Strips are identical to the strip that were cleared in k170143. The claimed shelf life stability and open vial stability is 24 months from manufacture when stored at 40-86 °F (4-30 °C) and 10-90% relative humidity in k170143.
d. Detection limit:
See linearity in section M1b above.
e. Analytical specificity:
Interference was evaluated at three glucose concentration intervals (60-100, 100-150, and $250 - 300\mathrm{mg / dL}$ ) by analyzing 26 potentially interfering exogenous and endogenous substances. Average glucose values measured with the Rightest Blood Glucose Monitoring System Wiz Plus in samples spiked with a potentially interfering substance were compared with average values measured in control samples (without potentially interfering substance) on the Rightest Blood Glucose Monitoring System Wiz Plus. The sponsor defined significant interference as bias greater than $\pm 10\%$ (vs control condition). The compounds at the concentrations listed below were the highest concentrations tested that did not demonstrate significant interference:

P. Other Supportive Instrument Performance Characteristics Data Not Covered In The “Performance Characteristics” Section above:
{11}
12
1. Sample Volume Study
To evaluate the minimum sample volume of the blood glucose test strips, a study was performed using 3 lots of test strips, venous blood samples at 3 glucose concentrations (50-65 mg/dL, 100-120 mg/dL and 200-250 mg/dL) and the following 9 sample volumes; 0.60μL, 0.65μL, 0.70 μL, 0.75 μL, 0.80 μL, 1.00 μL, 1.25 μL, 2.00 μL and 3.00 μL. Test procedures were performed in 3 replicates, and results were compared to reference method YSI 2300 Analyzer. The study results supported the claimed minimum sample volume of 0.75 μL and that the sample volume detection feature functioned as intended.
2. Altitude Study
To evaluate the effects of altitude on system performance, three test strip lots were tested with three meters using three venous blood samples with glucose concentration of 50-75mg/dL, 80-120 mg/dL and 270-330 mg/dL. The samples were tested at 0, 3281, 6562 and 9843 feet above sea level. Results obtained were compared with those obtained with an established laboratory reference method (YSI 2300 analyzer). The results demonstrate acceptable bias relative to the reference method to support the claim in the labeling that the system can be used at altitudes up to 10,000 ft. (3275 meters).
3. Hematocrit Study
To evaluate the effect of different hematocrit levels on system performance, 10 meters were used to test venous blood with nine HCT levels of 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55% and 60%. HCT levels where tested over five glucose concentrations of 30-50mg/dL, 51-110 mg/dL, 111-150 mg/dL, 151-250 mg/dL and 251-400 mg/dL. Results of samples at each hematocrit level were compared to samples measured with an established laboratory reference method (YSI) and support the claimed hematocrit range of 20-60%.
4. Test System Operating Conditions
To evaluate the effect of different environmental operating conditions on the system, three devices where tested at six different operating conditions. Three different temperatures (10-11°C, 25±2°C and 39-40°C) each at two different relative humidity levels (10% and 90%). The results of this study supported the sponsor's claimed operating conditions of 50°F-104°F and a relative humidity range of 10% to 90%.
5. EMC Testing
The sponsor provided documentation certifying that acceptable electromagnetic testing (EMC) had been performed and the device system was found compliant.
6. Infection Control Studies
The devices are intended for a single-patient use only. Disinfection efficacy studies were performed on the materials comprising the outer meter, including polycarbonate and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene. The studies were conducted by an outside commercial testing laboratory demonstrating complete inactivation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) with the chosen disinfectant, CaviWipes Disinfecting Towelettes (EPA registration number 46781-8). Robustness studies were also performed by the sponsor demonstrating that
{12}
there was no change in performance or external materials of the meter. The robustness studies were designed to simulate cleaning and disinfection procedure twice a week for five years for a total of 520 cycles. Labeling was reviewed for adequate instructions for the validated cleaning and disinfection procedures.

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.
