The blood glucose test results are displayed either in mmol/L or mg/dL
depending on the unit of measure most common in your country.
Note:
The glucose control solution range is the expected range for the glucose
control solution test results. It is not a recommended range for a blood glucose
level.
7. Slide the strip ejector to discard the test strip. The display should also show a
pound sign (#) and “GLU” symbol indicating the test is a glucose control
solution test. This shows that the number will not be counted in the 7, 14, 30,
60 and 90-day blood glucose averages. The pound sign (#) will also be
displayed when reviewing the results stored in memory.
If the result falls outside the indicated control range:
•
Confirm you are matching the correct range. Control Solution 1 results
should be matched to the CTRL 1 range printed on the test strip vial (or on
foil pouch).
•
Check the expiration date of the test strip and control solution. Make sure
that the test strip vial and control solution bottle have not been opened for
more than 6 months. Discard any test strips or control solution that has expired.
•
Confirm the temperature in which you are testing is between 10 and 40°C
(50-104°F).
•
Make sure that the test strip vial and control solution bottle have been
tightly capped.
•
Confirm that you are using the same brand of the glucose control solution
and the blood glucose test strips.
•
Make sure the code number on the strip vial label or foil pouch matches the
code number that appears on the meter display.
•
Make sure that you followed the test procedure correctly.
After checking all of the conditions listed above, repeat the glucose quality control
test with a new blood glucose test strip. If your results still fall outside of the control
range shown on the test strip vial (or on the foil pouch), your meter may be
defective. Contact your local distributor for help.
