Understanding Your Test Results

The EasyMax Voice III Blood Glucose test strips are plasma referenced and calibrated for easier comparison
to lab results. The normal fasting blood glucose range for an adult without diabetes is 70~110 mg/dL
(3.88~6.11 mmol/L). Two hours after meals, the blood glucose range for an adult without diabetes is less than
120 mg/dL (6.66 mmol/L). For people with diabetes: please consult your doctor for the blood glucose range
appropriate for you.

Unusual Test Results

If your test result doesn't match the way you feel, please follow these steps:
1. Run a control solution test, Chapter 2 "Control Solution Testing."
2. Repeat a blood glucose test, Chapter 3 "Testing Your Blood glucose."
3. If your test results still don't reflect the way you feel, call your doctor immediately.
1. Extremely high humidity may affect the test results. A relative humidity greater than 90%
may cause inaccurate results.
2. A red blood cell count (Hematocrit) that is either very high (above 55%) or very low
(below 30%) may not provide accurate results. If you do not know your hematocrit level,
please consult your healthcare professional.
3. Some studies have shown that electromagnetic fields may affect results. Do not test
near an operating microwave oven.
