Important Information

●Severe dehydration and excessive water loss may cause readings

which are lower than actual values.

●Use only fresh whole blood samples to test patientʼs blood glucose.

Using other substances will lead to incorrect results.

●We do not recommend using this product on severely hypotensive

individuals or patients in shock. Readings which are lower than actual

values may occur for individuals experiencing a

hyperglycaemic-hyperosmolar state, with or without ketosis.

Intended Use

This system is intended for use outside the body (in vitro diagnostic

use) by professionals in clinical settings as an aid to monitoring the

effectiveness of diabetes control. It is intended to be used for the

quantitative measurement of glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary, venous,

arterial, and neonatal whole blood samples. It should not be used for the

diagnosis of diabetes, or screening for diabetes mellitus.

Capillary samples may be drawn from the fingertip, and in the case of

neonates, from the heel.

The system is only used with single-use, auto-disabling lancing devices. It

can only be used with FORA COMFORT pro GD40 test strips and FORA

control solutions.

Test Principle

Your system measures the amount of sugar (glucose) in whole blood.

The glucose testing is based on the measurement of electrical current

generated by the reaction of glucose with the reagent of the strip. The

meter measures the current, calculates the blood glucose level, and

displays the result. The strength of the current produced by the reaction

depends on the amount of glucose in the blood sample.
