Acceptance criteria in ISO 15197: 2013 are that 95% of all
differences in glucose values (i.e., between reference method and
meter) should be within ±0.83 mmol/L for glucose values less than
5.55 mmol/L, and within ±15% for glucose values greater than or
equal to 5.55 mmol/L.
Technical Information
The C

blood glucose monitoring system
was tested in 100 capillary blood samples using 600
C

test strips. Two replicates were tested
with each of 3 lots of C
ONTOUR
N
EXT
test strips for a
total of 600 readings. Results were compared to the YSI
®
glucose analyzer, which is traceable to the CDC hexokinase
method.
The tables below compare the performance of the
2 methods.
