K132180 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the IDEAL LIFE GLUCO-MANAGER BLOOD GLUCOSE MONITORING SYSTEM. Classified as System, Test, Blood Glucose, Over The Counter (product code NBW), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Ideal Life, Inc. (Fairfax, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on June 25, 2014 after a review of 345 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1345 - the FDA in vitro diagnostics and chemistry framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Chemistry review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
