Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of an investigational blood glucose meter with the Contour sensor strip. It was decided that this investigational monitoring system would not be part of a regulatory submission and it will not proceed to marketed product.

Interventions

DEVICENinja 2 Investigational Blood Glucose Meter

Untrained subjects with diabetes performed Blood Glucose(BG) tests from the subject's capillary blood obtained from fingerstick, palm, and forearm using the Ninja 2 investigational meter. All BG results were compared to a reference laboratory glucose method. Subjects' success at performing basic tasks using only the User Guide were rated by study staff.

BGM results were compared to a reference lab glucose method - Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) Analyzer. BG results were used to calculate the number of BG results within +/- 5 to 15 mg/dL (for reference BG results \<75mg/dL) or +/- 5 to 20% (for reference BG results \>=75mg/dL) of the reference method results.

Time frame: 2 hours

Population: 178 BG results possible-88 subjects tested 2 strip lots(88x2)/2 subjects had 1 reading(2x1). Withdrawn by Principal Investigator(PI)-3 subjects experienced Adverse Events before performance testing / one subject did not meet inclusion/exclusion. Data from 4 subjects were not evaluable since exceeded time between meter testing and reference method.

Study staff then observed and rated the subjects(1 to 4) on their success at performing the tasks. Scale: 1.Success in performing tasks correctly without assistance. 2.Successful with additional review of User Guide. 3.Successful with additional review and study staff assist similar to review of a specific function during a Customer Service call. 4.Subject did not perform task correctly and study staff intervention was required.

Time frame: 2 hours

Population: 97 participants analyzed: one subject was found not to meet inclusion/exclusion criteria so subject was withdrawn and no data from this subject was evaluated. For palm and forearm testing tasks, 2 additional subjects (with nonevaluable BG data) were not included. Only 95 participants were rated for those particular tasks.
