Glucose
Control Solution contains a known concentration of glucose. It is used to confirm
that your meter and glucose test strips are working together properly and that you
are performing the glucose test correctly. It is important to run a glucose quality
control test regularly to make sure you are getting correct glucose test results.
You should run a glucose quality control test:
•
Before you first use your meter to test blood glucose, to familiarize yourself
with its operation.
•
Before using a new box of blood glucose test strips.
•
When you suspect that the meter or blood glucose test strips are not working
properly.
•
When you suspect that your blood glucose test results are inaccurate, or if they
are inconsistent with how you feel.
•
When you suspect your meter is damaged.
•
After cleaning your meter.
•
At least once a week.
