Performance Analysis; Measuring Principle - Accu-Chek Aviva Nano User Manual

Performance Analysis

The performance data for the Accu-Chek Aviva Nano System
(Accu-Chek Aviva Nano Meter with Accu-Chek Aviva Strips) were obtained using
capillary blood from diabetic patients (method comparison, accuracy), venous blood
(repeatability), and control solution (reproducibility). The system is calibrated with
venous blood containing various levels of glucose. The reference values are obtained
using the hexokinase method. For method comparison, the results were compared
with results obtained using the hexokinase method with deproteinization
(automatic analyzer). The hexokinase method is traceable to an NIST standard.

Measuring Principle

Blood glucose concentrations may be measured in whole blood or plasma. Although
whole blood is always applied to the strip, the meter displays blood glucose
75
results that relate to plasma. Please refer to the package insert for information on
how the system works, on the test principle, and on reference methods
