On Call Express Blood Glucose Test Strips
®
The On Call Express Blood Glucose Test Strips are used with the On Call
Express Voice Blood Glucose Meter in the quantitative measurement of glucose in
capillary blood from the fingertips, forearm and palm.
The On Call ® Express Blood Glucose Test Strips are thin strips with a chemical
reagent system. After the strip is inserted into the meter, blood is applied to the
sample tip of the test strip. The blood is then automatically absorbed into the
reaction cell where the reaction takes place. A transient electrical current is formed
during the reaction. The blood glucose concentration is calculated based on the
electrical current detected by the meter. The result is shown on the meter display.
The meter is set to display plasma equivalent results.
Sample Tip
Apply blood or control solution here.
Check Window
Check to confirm that a sufficient
sample has been applied.
IMPORTANT: Apply the sample only to the sample tip of the test strip. Do not
apply blood or control solution to the top of the test strip. This may result in an
inaccurate reading.
Hold the blood drop to the sample tip of the test strip until the check window is
completely full. The meter will then begin to count down. If you applied blood but do
not see the countdown start, you may reapply a second drop of blood within 3
seconds. If the check window does not fill and the meter starts to count down, then
do not add more blood to the test strip. If you do then you may get an E-5 message
or an inaccurate test result. In this case if the meter begins to count down and the
check window does not fill, discard the strip and begin the test again with a new
test strip.
