Intended Use
This system is intended for use outside the body (in vitro diagnostic
use) by people with diabetes at home as an aid to monitoring the
effectiveness of diabetes control. It is intended to be used for the
quantitative measurement of glucose (sugar) in fresh whole blood
samples from the finger.
It should not be used for the diagnosis of or screening for diabetes.
Test Principle
Your system measures the amount of sugar (glucose) in whole blood.
The glucose testing is based on the measurement of electrical current
generated by the reaction of glucose with the reagent of the strip. The
meter measures the current, calculates the blood glucose level, and
displays the result. The strength of the current produced by the reac-
tion depends on the amount of glucose in the blood sample.
