K132633 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the OKMETER DIRECT BLOOD GLUCOSE MONITORING SYSTEM. Classified as System, Test, Blood Glucose, Over The Counter (product code NBW), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Ok Biotech Co., Ltd. (Hsinchu City, TW). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on August 14, 2014 after a review of 357 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.
