Treatment and study plan

Ninja 3 PLUS Investigational BG Monitoring System

Device

Untrained subjects with diabetes performed self Blood Glucose (BG) tests with capillary fingerstick and palm blood using the Ninja 3 PLUS Investigational BG Monitoring System. Study staff tested subject fingerstick blood. All BG results were compared to a reference laboratory glucose method.

Primary outcomes

  1. Percent of Self Test Fingerstick Blood Glucose Results Within ±15 mg/dL (< 75 mg/dL) and Within ±20% (≥ 75 mg/dL) of the Laboratory Glucose Method

    Time frame: 1 hour

    Untrained subjects with diabetes who self-tested fingerstick blood used the Ninja 3 PLUS investigational Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). BGMS results were compared with capillary plasma BG results obtained with a reference laboratory glucose method - YSI Life Sciences (YSI) Analyzer. BG meter results were used to calculate the number of BGMS results within +/- 15mg/dL (for reference BG results <75mg/dL) and within +/- 20% (for reference BG results >=75mg/dL) of the YSI reference method results.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percent of Self Test Fingerstick Blood Glucose Results Within ±15 mg/dL (< 100 mg/dL) and Within ±15% (≥ 100 mg/dL) of the Laboratory Glucose Method

    Time frame: 1 hour

    Untrained subjects with diabetes who self-tested fingerstick blood used the Ninja 3 PLUS investigational Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). BGMS results were compared with capillary plasma BG results obtained with a reference laboratory glucose method - YSI Life Sciences (YSI) Analyzer. BG meter results were used to calculate the number of BGMS results within +/- 15mg/dL (for reference BG results <100mg/dL) and within +/- 15% (for reference BG results >=100mg/dL) of the YSI reference method results.

  2. Percent of Self Test Fingerstick Blood Glucose Results Within ±12.5 mg/dL (< 100 mg/dL) and Within ±12.5% (≥ 100 mg/dL) of the Laboratory Glucose Method

    Time frame: 1 hour

    Untrained subjects with diabetes who self-tested fingerstick blood used the Ninja 3 PLUS investigational Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). BGMS results were compared with capillary plasma BG results obtained with a reference laboratory glucose method - YSI Life Sciences (YSI) Analyzer. BG meter results were used to calculate the number of BGMS results within +/- 12.5mg/dL (for reference BG results <100mg/dL) and within +/- 12.5% (for reference BG results >=100mg/dL) of the YSI reference method results.

  3. Percent of Blood Glucose Results From Alternative Site Testing (AST) of the Palm Within ±15 mg/dL (< 75 mg/dL) and Within ±20% (≥ 75 mg/dL) of the Laboratory Method.

    Time frame: 1 hour

    Untrained subjects with diabetes self-tested Alternative Site (AST) Palm blood using the Ninja 3 PLUS investigational Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). BGMS AST results were compared with capillary plasma BG results obtained with a reference laboratory glucose method - YSI Life Sciences (YSI) Analyzer. BG meter results were used to calculate the number of AST BGMS results within +/- 15mg/dL (<75mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) and within +/- 15% (>=75mg/dL YSI capillary plasma).

  4. Percent of Fingerstick Blood Glucose Results Within ±15 mg/dL (< 75 mg/dL) and Within ±20% (≥ 75 mg/dL) of the Laboratory Glucose Method When Tested by Study Staff

    Time frame: one hour

    Study Staff tested subject fingerstick blood using the Ninja 3 PLUS investigational Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). BGMS results were compared with capillary plasma BG results obtained with a reference laboratory glucose method - YSI Life Sciences (YSI) Analyzer. BG meter results were used to calculate the number of BGMS results within +/- 15mg/dL (for reference BG results <75mg/dL) and within +/- 20% (for reference BG results >=75mg/dL) of the YSI reference method results.

  5. Number of Subject Responses That 'Strongly Agree' or 'Agree' or Are 'Neutral' With Questionnaire Statements

    Time frame: 1 hour

    Staff obtained subject responses using short questionnaires to provide feedback on instructions for use and the basic operation of the BGMS. Subjects could respond 'Strongly Agree' 'Agree' 'Neutral' 'Disagree' or 'Strongly Disagree.'
