Comparing The Control Solution Test Results - i-SENS CareSens N Owner's Booklet

Step 4
The display segments will rotate clockwise
on the meter display and a test result will
appear after the meter counts down from
5 to 1.
The test result with control solution flag is
stored in the memory but not included in
the averages.
Step 5
Compare the result displayed on the meter
to the range printed on the test strip vial.
The result should fall within the range.
Caution: The range printed on the test strip vial is for the
CareSens Control Solution only. It has nothing to do with your
blood glucose level.
Note: The CareSens Control Solution can be purchased
separately. Please contact your authorised i-SENS sales
representative.

Comparing the Control Solution Test Results

The test result of each control solution should be within the
range printed on the label of the test strip vial. Repeat the
control solution test if the test result falls outside of the range.
Out of range results may occur due to following factors:
Situations
• When the control solution bottle was
not shaken well,
• When the meter, test strip, or the control
solution were exposed to high or low
temperatures,
• When the first drop of the control
solution was not discarded or the tip of
the bottle was not wiped clean,
• When the meter is not functioning
properly.
• When the control solution is past the
expiration date printed on the bottle,
• When the control solution is past its
discard date (the date the bottle was
opened plus three (3) months),
• When the control solution is
contaminated.
If results continue to fall outside the range, the CareSens N Test
Strip and CareSens N NFC Meter may not be working properly.
Do not use your system and contact your authorised i-SENS
sales representative.
