Accuracy of the Reader's built-in meter
Results from the Reader's built-in meter may vary slightly from your
actual blood glucose value. This may be due to slight differences in
technique and natural variation in test technology. The table below
shows the results of a study where 119 typical users used the built-in
meter to check their blood glucose level. For example, in the study, the
built-in meter gave results within 15% of true blood glucose level 115
out of 119 times.
