CHAPTER 2 :
Control Solution Test
Why you do a control solution test ;
• SD Glucose Control Solution is used to
check that the meter and the test strips are
working together as a system and that you are
performing the test correctly.
• It is very important that you do this simple
check routinely to make sure you get an
accurate result.
When you use a Control solution ;
• You open a new box test strips.
• You left the test strip container open or you
think your test strips have been damaged.
• Your test strips were stored in extreme
temperatures and/or humidity.
• You want to check the meter and test strips.
• You dropped the meter.
• Your test result does not agree with how you
feel.
• You want to check if you are testing correctly.
Before you begin ;
• Use only SD Glucose Control Solution.
• Check the expiration date on the control
solution container. Record the opening date
on the container label. Do Not use after
expiration or discard date (date opened plus
three months), whichever comes first.
