Description:
The Beurer GL 32 mmol/L is an automatic blood glucose meter. The accuracy of its blood glucose measurement technology has yet to be proven to MDR requirements. Blood glucose measurements are taken from the finger. It is intended for self-measurement and home use. This device has been discontinued by the manufacturer but may be available through certain outlets.
Assessment:
There appears to be no peer-reviewed clinical validation information available on the technology used in the Beurer GL 32 mmol/L to measure blood glucose. However, this device appears to be very similar to a validated device by the same manufacturer or a device within a family of equivalent devices, but equivalence needs to be proven according to a protocol compliant with (EU) 2017/745 and MEDDEV 2.7/1 rev 4.
Recommendations:
| Accuracy Assessment | Recommendation | Basis | |
| BG | Medaval | None | Although equivalence to another device is claimed, this has not been tested to MDR requirements. |

Validation Publications for Equivalent Devices:
Note: This is a provisional list, as equivalence according to EU Regulation 2017/745 (e.g. MEDDEV 2.7/1 rev 4) is not proven. Accordingly, these publications are not used in the assessment of star-ratings.
