• Glucose in blood samples reacts with the chemical in the
test strip to produce a small electrical current. The CareSens
PRO meter detects this electrical current and measures the
amount of glucose in the blood sample.
• The CareSens PRO Blood Glucose Meter is designed to
minimise code related errors in monitoring by using the
no-coding function.
• The CareSens PRO Blood Glucose Meter should be used
only with the CareSens PRO Test Strips.
•
An abnormally high or low red blood cell count (hematocrit
level over 65% or below 15%) may produce inaccurate
results.
•
If your blood glucose test result is below 60 mg/dL
(3.3 mmol/L) or above 240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L), consult a
healthcare professional immediately.
•
Inaccurate blood glucose results may occur in severely
hypotensive individuals or patients in shock. Inaccurate low
blood glucose results may occur for individuals experiencing
a hyperglycemic- hyperosmolar state, with or without
ketosis. Critically ill patients should not be tested with blood
glucose meters.
•
Do not use during or within 24 hours of receiving xylose
absorption testing as it may cause inaccurate results.
