In vitro diagnostic test systems - Requirements for blood-glucose monitoring systems for self-testing in managing diabetes mellitus (ISO 15197:2003)
This standard specifies procedures for the determination of performance criteria for quantitative in vitro blood glucose monitoring systems for management of diabetes mellitus. The primary goal of the standard is to assure the performance of blood glucose monitoring systems for self-testing and similar applications, such as bedside testing, and to specify tests by which compliance with the requirements can be verified, if applicable.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

ISO 15197:2003(E)
Introduction
Blood-glucose monitoring systems are in vitro diagnostic medical devices used predominantly by individuals
affected by diabetes mellitus. Diabetes mellitus is caused by a relative or absolute deficiency in insulin
secretion or by insulin resistance leading to abnormal concentrations of glucose in the blood, which may result
in acute and chronic health complications. When used properly, a glucose monitoring system allows the user
to monitor and take action to control the concentration of glucose present in the blood.
This International Standard is intended for blood-glucose monitoring systems used by laypersons. The primary
objectives are to establish requirements that result in acceptable performance and to specify procedures for
demonstrating conformance to this International Standard.
Performance criteria for blood-glucose monitoring systems were established from the accuracy (precision and
trueness) required for individual glucose results. System accuracy criteria, also known in the in vitro
[35]
diagnostics (IVD) industry as total error criteria (see NCCLS EP21-P ), are used in this International
Standard because some of the metrological terms commonly used in International Standards (e.g.
uncertainty) would not be familiar to lay users. System accuracy, which is affected by systematic bias and
measurement uncertainty, describes the degree to which the individual results produced by a glucose
monitoring system agree with the true glucose values when the system is used as intended by laypersons.
The criteria for system accuracy are based on three considerations (see References [2] to [21] in the
Bibliography):
a) the effectiveness of current technology for monitoring patients with diabetes mellitus, as demonstrated in
clinical outcome studies using state-of-the-art monitoring devices;
b) recommendations of diabetes researchers as well as existing product standards and regulatory
guidelines;
c) the state-of-the-art of currently available technology, as evidenced by the performance of existing
commercial products.
In arriving at the performance criteria, desirable goals had to be weighed against the capabilities of existing
devices (the current state-of-the-art) and their effectiveness in clinical outcome studies. It was decided that
overly demanding performance requirements would cause manufacturers to focus design improvements on
analytical performance at the expense of other important attributes. For example, frequency of testing by
diabetic patients can be as important as the accuracy of an individual result, and greater convenience of
glucose self-testing improves patient compliance. The system accuracy criteria define the minimum
acceptable performance of a blood-glucose measuring device intended for self-monitoring.
Future advances in technology are expected, which should result in improved performance of glucose
monitoring devices. Such performance improvements will be driven by the competitive marketplace,
particularly through reduction of dependence on user technique.
Requirements that are unique to self-monitoring devices for blood-glucose, including the content of
information supplied by the manufacturer, are addressed in this International Standard. General requirements
that apply to all in vitro diagnostic medical devices and are covered by other standards [e.g. ISO 13485 and
ISO 14971] are incorporated by reference where appropriate.
Although this International Standard does not apply to measurement procedures with results on an ordinal
scale (e.g. visual, semiquantitative measurement procedures), it may be useful as a guide for developing
procedures to evaluate the performance of such systems.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 15197:2003(E)
In vitro diagnostic test systems — Requirements for blood-
glucose monitoring systems for self-testing in managing
diabetes mellitus
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies requirements for in vitro glucose monitoring systems that measure
glucose concentrations in capillary blood samples and procedures for the verification and the validation of
performance by the intended users. These systems are intended for self-testing by laypersons for
management of diabetes mellitus.
This International Standard is applicable to manufacturers of such systems and those other organizations
(e.g. regulatory authorities and conformity assessment bodies) having the responsibility for assessing the
performance of these systems.
This International Standard does not
provide a comprehensive evaluation of all possible factors that could affect the performance of these
systems,
pertain to glucose concentration measurement for the purpose of diagnosing diabetes mellitus,
address the medical aspects of diabetes mellitus management, or
apply to measurement procedures with results on an ordinal scale (e.g. visual, semiquantitative test
methods).

NOTE 1 The term “accuracy”, when applied to a set of test results, involves a combination of random error components
and a common systematic error or bias component. [VIM:1993]
NOTE 2 For a measure of the accuracy of results of a blood-glucose monitoring system, see 3.24.

concentrations in blood
NOTE Blood-glucose monitoring systems measure glucose in capillary blood samples, but may express results as
either the glucose concentration in blood or the equivalent glucose concentration in plasma. Concentrations in this
International Standard refer to the type of results reported by the system.
3.4
blood-glucose meter

NOTE For reference materials used to calibrate measurement procedures intended for biological samples, “other
relevant types of material” include a large number of samples from healthy and relevantly diseased individuals.
