Important Information
Severe dehydration and excessive water loss may cause readings
which are lower than actual values. If you believe you are suffering
from severe dehydration, consult a healthcare professional
immediately.
If your testing results are lower or higher than usual, and you do
not have any symptoms of illness, first repeat the test. If you have
symptoms or continue to get results which are higher or lower than
usual, follow the treatment advice of your healthcare professional.
Use only fresh whole blood samples to perform a test. Using other
substances will lead to incorrect results.
If you are experiencing symptoms that are inconsistent with your
test results and you have followed all the instructions given in this
owner’s manual, contact your healthcare professional
We do not recommend using this product on severely hypotensive
individuals or patients in shock. Please consult the healthcare
professional before use.
The measurement unit used for indicating the concentration of
blood or plasma glucose can either have a weight dimension
(mg/dL) or a molarity (mmol/L). The approximate calculation rule
for conversion of mg/dL in mmol/L is:
For example:
1) 120 mg/dL ÷ 18 = 6.6 mmol/L
2) 7.2 mmol/L x 18 = 129 mg/dL approximately.
mg/dL Divided by 18 = mmol/L
mmol/L Times 18 = mg/dL
