The System 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. Alternative site testing should be done only during steady – state times (when glucose is not changing rapidly). The “ Bioland ” Test Strips are for use with the Blood Glucose Meter to quantitatively measure glucose in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertips, palm, forearm, upper arm, calf and thigh. The Bioland control solutions is intended for use with the System, to check that the ...
What is AST? Alternative site testing (AST) means that people use parts of the body other than the fingertips to check their blood glucose levels. This system allows you to test on the palm, the forearm, the upper arm, the calf, or the thigh with the equivalent results to fingertips testing. What’s the advantage? Fingertips feel pain more readily because they are full of nerve endings (receptors). At other body sites, since nerve endings are not so condensed, you will not feel as much pain as at the fingertip. When to use AST? Food , medication , illness, stress and exercise can affect blood glucose levels. Capillary blood at fingertip reflects these changes faster than capillary blood at other sites. Therefore when testing blood glucose during or immediately after meal, physical exercise, or any other event, take a blood sample from your finger only. You do AST only in the following instances: In a pre‐meal or fasting state (more than 2 hours since the last meal). Two hours or more after taking insulin. Two hours or more after exercising. NOTE: Alternative ...

THE TWO MEASURING MODES The meter provides you with two modes for measuring, General and CTL. The CTL mode should be used when a control solution is being tested. See the table below. Modes Use when General test (not display) Any time of day without regard to time since last meal CTL Testing with the control solution You can switch between each mode by: 1. Start with the meter turned off. Insert a test strip to turn on the meter, the screen will display a flashing blood drop. 2. Press M to select General or CTL mode. TESTING WITH BLOOD SAMPLE CAUTION: To reduce the chances of infection: Choose a clean, dry work surface. Never share a lancing device and lancet with another person.

While staying at the lab: Make sure that the samples for both tests are taken and tested within 15 minutes of each other. ■ Wash your hands and then obtain a blood sample ■ Never use your meter with blood that has been collected in a gray top test tube. ■...
You may press “M” button to select CTL mode, for selecting the CTL mode, please refer to the “THE TWO MEASURING MODES” section. Step 3 Apply the control solution Shake the control solution vial thoroughly before use. Squeeze out a drop and wipe it off, then squeeze another drop and place it on the tip of the vial cap. Hold the meter to move the absorbent hole of test strip so it touches the drop. Once the confirmation window fills completely, the meter will begin counting down. To avoid contaminating the control solution, do not directly apply control solution onto a strip. Step 4 The result of the control solutions test appears on the display. The result will not be stored under CTL mode. The result of the control solutions test should be within the range printed on the test strip vial label. If the test results falls outside the specified range printed on test strip vial label, repeat the test. Results falling outside the specified range may be caused by: ■ Error in performing the test ■ Expired or contaminated Control Solution ■ Expired or contaminated Test Strip ■ Malfunc on of your Meter If you continue to get control solution test results that fall outside of the range printed on the vial, the system may not be working properly, Do not use the meter. Please contact your customer support immediately NOTE: Do not use the expired control solution.
