Test Results
- Measuring Range: 20-600 mg/dL (1.1-33.3 mmol/L)
- The Normal Glucose Level before Breakfast: 70-105 mg/dL (3.9-5.8 mmol/L)
- 1 or 2hr after Meal: <120-160 mg/dL (6.7-8.9 mmol/L) (The range is only a reference.)
- If “Lo” is displayed on the meter, blood glucose level may be below 20 mg/dL (1.1 mmol/L).
- If “Hi” is displayed on the meter, blood glucose level may be over 600 mg/dL (33.3 mmol/L).
If the test result is unusually low, high or inconsistent with how you feel, please check the follows and repeat the test again with a new strip and make sure you have followed the instructions carefully.
- Strips are not expired.
- Meter has been coded properly, and the code number is consistent with the strip.
- Meter and strips is working properly.
- Blood sample has filled up the strip inlet sufficiently.
If you still have doubt with the test result, please consult healthcare professional or contact authorized distributor.
IMPORTANT:
· Please consult healthcare professional before making medical decision based on the tested results.Strips from other brand are not compatible to BeneCheck’s meter.
· POTENTIAL BIOHAZARD. The used test materials could be sources of infection, please beware especially when the system is used by multiple users.
Control Solution Test
Control solution is used to check the performance of the system. If the control solution test result falls within the range listed on the strip vial label, the system is working properly. Control solution is not included in the system. Please contact an authorized distributor for purchasing. A control test should be performed:
- When the system does not work properly.
- When the test result is unusual or inconsistent.
Out of range control solution test result may be caused by:
- Performing the test inaccurately.
- Contaminated or expired control solution.
- System deterioration or malfunction.
- The codes between meter and strip are inconsistent.
IMPORTANT: Each strip vial might have different control range. Please check every time when you perform a control solution test. Do not use the system if the control solution tests keep result wrongly. Please contact authorized distributor for assistance.
Limitations
For getting an accurate test result, please read the following limitation carefully.
- Single use only. Do not reuse the strips.
- Do not perform the test under strong electronic field with signal interference.
- Do not perform the test on newborns.
- The test strip can be used at altitude up to 10,000 feet (3048 meters).
- Medical therapy for intravenous injection, such as immunoglobulin preparations and peritoneal dialysis solutions, containing sugar compounds may cause higher test results.
- The strips only react with D-glucose. The strips do not react with other sugars that may be present in blood.
- Hematocrit (Hct) should be between 25-60%.
- Use only fresh capillary whole blood from fingertip, palm, or forearm.
- Do not use serum, plasma or venous whole blood.
Additional Information for Healthcare Professionals
- Interferences: Acetaminophen, Ascorbic acid, Bilirubin, Cholesterol, Creatinine, Dopamine, EDTA, Gentisic acid, Heparin, Ibuprofen, Maltose, Icodextrin, Levo-Dopa, Methyl-Dopa, Pralidoxime Iodide, Urea, Salicylic Acid, Sucrose, Tetracycline, Tolazamide, Tolbutamide, Hemoglobin, Triglyceride, Uric acid, Xylitol, Xylose, Lactose, Galactose (at physiological orther apeutical levels) do not significantly affect the test results. However, abnormally high concentra-tions in blood may cause inaccurately test results.
- Glutathione level above 13.25 mg/dL (0.424 mmol/L) may give significant interference.
- Patients undergoing oxygen therapy may yield false results.
- In situation of decreased peripheral blood flow may case false results. Ex: severe dehydration; in shock, or in a hyperosmolar state (with or without ketosis), hypotension.
- Lipemic sample: Cholesterol levels up to 326 mg/dL (8.43 mmol/L), and triglycerides up to 750 mg/dL (8.47 mmol/L) do not affect the results.
- Grossly lipemic patient samples have not been tested and are not recommended for testing with glucose test strips.
- The test strips are not recommended for critically ill patients.
Accuracy
The accuracy of the glucose test was performed with capillary finger blood and compared with reference instrument calibrators, which were referenced to the NIST SRM 917 Standard. The product meets the ISO 15197 requirements.
