The IDEAL LIFE GlucoManager™ Blood Glucose Monitoring System, Model GMM0002 is intended to be used for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertip or alternative sites (palm, forearm, upper arm, calf, and thigh). The system is intended to be used by a single patient and should not be shared.

The IDEAL LIFE GlucoManager™ Blood Glucose Monitoring System, Model GMM0002 is intended for self-testing outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use) by people with diabetes at home as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control. The system is not to be used for the diagnosis of or screening for diabetes or for neonatal use. Alternative site testing should only be done during steady state times when blood glucose is not changing rapidly.

The IDEAL LIFE Blood Glucose Test Strips, Model AGS-1112 are for use with the IDEAL LIFE GlucoManager™ to quantitatively measure glucose in fresh capillary whole blood drawn from the fingertips, palm, forearm, upper arm, calf, and thigh.

The IDEAL LIFE Control Solution, Model GCS-0104 is intended for use with IDEAL LIFE GlucoManager and IDEAL LIFE Blood Glucose Test Strips, Model AGS-1112. The control solution can be used to check that the glucose meter and test strips are working properly and that the measurement is accurate.

The IDEAL LIFE GlucoManager™ can wirelessly communicate with a communication gateway such as the IDEAL LIFE Pod™ or the IDEAL LIFE Gateway Application™. The IDEAL LIFE Gateway Application receives data wirelessly from IDEAL LIFE devices to transmit over the Internet from the user's mobile device. The Gateway Application is intended to aid people at home and health care professionals to review and evaluate historical blood glucose results, to support effective health care management.
