Example Minimum Calibration Schedule During
Seven-Day Sensor Session
PRECAUTION
Do not use alternative blood glucose site testing
(blood from your palm or forearm, etc.) for calibration.
Alternative site blood glucose values may be different
than those taken from a fingerstick blood glucose value
and may not represent the timeliest blood glucose value.
Use a blood glucose value taken only from a fingerstick
for calibration. Alternative site blood glucose values might
affect sensor accuracy and result in you missing severe
hypoglycemia (low blood glucose) or hyperglycemia (high
blood glucose) events.
