Control™ Blood Glucose Monitoring System

The Control™ Meter makes managing your diabetes Easy. The Control™ Meter gives you accurate and reliable results in just 5 seconds and it only requires 1ul of blood, a tiny sample size. You can now test your blood glucose from your forearm, thigh, calf, palm, as well as your fingertips.

Features:

• Alternate Site Testing
• Biosensor Technology
• Results in 5 Seconds
• Tiny Sample Size (1ul)
• Blood Applied, Capillary Action, Automatic start
• Easy, Simple, and Accurate
• 14 Days Plus Averaging
• 250+ Test Memory
• 5,000 Tests Battery Life (vs. 1,000 for some of the other leading brands)

Product Comparison
Substantial Equivalence Information

This device is an in vitro diagnostic product intended for the measurement of glucose concentration in human blood for diabetics. The principle of the test relies upon a specific type of glucose in the blood sample, the dehydrogenase glucose that reacts to electrodes in the test strip.  The test strip employs an electrochemical signal generating an electrical current that will stimulate a chemical reaction.  This reaction is measured by the Meter and displayed as your blood glucose result.  Note: Different levels of reactions will occur with the amount of glucose in the bloodsample.

The technological characteristics of the CONTROL™ in comparison to OneTouch® Ultra®:

The modified CONTROL™ device has the same technological characteristics as the ONE TOUCH® Ultra®.

  CONTROL™  ONE TOUCH® Ultra®

Detection method

Amperometry: current is generated by oxidation of reduced mediator. Amperometry
Enzyme Glucose Oxidase (Aspergillus niger)

Glucose Oxidase (Aspergillus niger)

Mediator Hexaammineruthenium chloride Potassium ferricyanide
Electrode Carbon electrode Carbon electrode

The other ingredients of test strip, such as enzyme stabilizer, buffer and binder are different.

The CONTROL™ Blood Glucose Monitoring System provides the same glucose monitoring capability as the predicate device, the ONE TOUCH® Ultra®.  The primary differences are in the advanced memory function and battery lifetime.

** At 4 different U.S. sites from 134 participants with diabetes, each performing 2 meter tests. A YSI Model 2700 glucose analyzer, a laboratory instrument was used.

Non-clinical: Verification, validation and testing activities were conducted to establish the performance, functionality and reliability characteristics of the CONTROL™ Blood Glucose Monitoring System with respect to the predicate device. Testing involved the verification of software requirement specifications, product requirement specifications and user interface requirement specifications from risk analysis. Pass or fail criteria were based on the specification cleared for the predicate device and results showed substantial equivalence.
