3.2 Special features of the MEDISANA
blood glucose monitor MediTouch 2
Measuring your blood glucose level regularly can
be a great help when dealing with your diabetes.
This blood glucose monitor is designed so that
you can use it easily, regularly and anywhere you
choose. The lancing device can be set to the
sensitivity of your skin. The diabetic diary
provided helps you to recognise and record the
affect of your eating habits, sport activities or
medication on the test results. Always consult
your doctor about your test results and treatment.
This monitor is intended for actively testing a
person's blood glucose at home. It is not suitable
for diagnosing diabetes or for testing the blood
glucose of newborn babies.
®
Your MediTouch 2 blood glucose monitor from
MEDISANA consists of five main parts: the blood
glucose monitor, the lancing device, the lancets,
the test strips and the control solution.

These parts are specially designed to be used
®
together and for their quality to ensure precise
test results. Only use MediTouch 2 approved
test strips, lancets and control solution for your
blood glucose monitor. Precise test results can
only be ensured when the monitor is used
properly. Only use fresh, capillary whole blood for
the test, preferably from the finger tips.
The monitor measures the blood glucose level
very precisely. It has an automatic memory for
480 readings with the date and time. It also
calculates the average level using the blood
glucose readings from the previous 7, 14, 30 and
90 days. This allows you to monitor any changes
and discuss them with your doctor.
