Note:
Dispose of blood samples and materials with care. Treat all blood
samples as if they are infectious materials. Follow your doctor's
recommendations for disposal.
“HI” and “LO” Messages
The meter can accurately measure blood glucose concentrations between 20 to
600 mg/dL. “HI” and “LO” messages indicate results outside of this range.
If “HI” appears on the display, the meter will say “
High Glucose
,” signaling
measured concentration value is above 600 mg/dL. The test should be retaken to
ensure that no mistake was made in the procedure. If you are certain the meter is
functioning properly and no mistakes were made in the procedure, and your blood
glucose is still consistently measured as “HI”, it indicates severe hyperglycemia
(high blood glucose). You should contact your doctor immediately.
If “LO” appears on the display, the meter will say “
Low Glucose
,” signaling
measured concentration value is below 20 mg/dL. The test should be retaken to
ensure that no mistake was made in the procedure. If you are certain the meter is
functioning properly and no mistakes were made in the procedure, and your blood
glucose is still consistently measured as “LO”, it may indicate severe hypoglycemia
(low blood glucose). You should treat yourself for hypoglycemia immediately as
recommended by your doctor.
