Intended use:
CareSens N Blood Glucose Monitoring System is used for the
quantitative measurement of the glucose level in capillary whole
blood as an aid in monitoring diabetes management effectively at
home or in clinical settings.
CareSens N Blood Glucose Monitoring System should be used
only for self-testing outside the body (
in vitro
diagnostic use only).
CareSens N Blood Glucose Monitoring System should not
be used for the diagnosis of diabetes or for testing newborns.
Testing sites include the traditional fingertip testing along with
alternate sites testing on forearm, palm, thigh and calf.
•
The CareSens N Blood Glucose Monitoring System
is intended for self-testing outside the body (
in vitro
diagnostic use).
•
The glucose in the blood sample mixes with special
chemicals on the test strip to produce a small electrical
current. The CareSens N meter detects this electrical
current and measures the amount of glucose in the blood
sample.
•
The CareSens N Blood Glucose Meter is designed to
minimize code related errors in monitoring by using the
no-coding function.
•
The CareSens N Blood Glucose Meter should be used only
with the CareSens N Strip.
• An abnormally high or low red blood cell count (hematocrit
level over 60% or below 20%) may produce inaccurate
results.
•
If your test result is below 3.3 mmol/L or above 13.3
mmol/L, consult a healthcare professional immediately.
