Introduction
®
The SureStep Hospital Blood Glucose Meter
is one component of LifeScan's professional
blood glucose monitoring system. When used
with SureStepPro Test Strips, the meter
measures a patient's blood glucose level from a
whole blood sample taken at the bedside.
Blood is applied directly to the test strip
before the strip is inserted into the meter. A
confirmation dot on the test strip helps you
check that an adequate volume of sample was
applied. Meter display symbols guide you
through the test procedure.
For accurate results, use only SureStepPro Test
Strips with the SureStep Hospital Meter.
