    75 mg/dL, and within 20% of a laboratory method when the glucose concentration is ≥75 mg/dL or higher. Samples from 100 patients were tested using both the OneTouch® Verio® System and the YSI 2300 Glucose Analyzer laboratory instrument.
  • Page 119 System Accuracy Results across the entire Glucose Range Percent (and number) of meter results that match the laboratory test Within ±15 mg/dL or ±20% 99.7% (598/600) Therefore, 99.7% of the total results obtained with the OneTouch® Verio® System achieved the goal suggested by the diabetes experts.
  • Page 120 However, experts have suggested greater accuracy of Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems is desirable. The OneTouch® Verio® Blood Glucose Monitoring System has demonstrated accuracy within 15 mg/dL of the laboratory method for glucose concentrations lower than 100 mg/dL, and within 15% of the laboratory method for glucose concentrations 100 mg/dL or higher.
