This table provides sensor readings that are within ± 20% of the BG meter value for
BG meter values ≥3.9 mmol/L and within ± 1.1 mmol/L of the BG meter value for BG
meter values <3.9 mmol/L.
Good fingerstick practices
When using your BG meter, check for these things:
Good test strips: Your test strips are stored as directed and not expired.
l
Cleanliness: Your hands are clean for the fingerstick. Wash your hands
l
thoroughly with soap and water (not hand sanitizer) and dry them. Then test.
Many inaccurate BG meter values are from people not washing their hands
thoroughly before testing.
