The
myglucohealth

Control Solution is used to check that the Meter and the Test
strips are working together as a system and that you are performing the test correctly. It is
very important that the control solution is used routinely to make sure that you receive
accurate results.
The
myglucohealth
TM
Control Solution contains a measured amount of glucose that
reacts with the
myglucohealth
TM
Control Solution Test Strips. Compare your control
solution test results with the expected range printed on the strip vial label.
The
myglucohealth
TM
Control Solution should be used to:
•
Practice the test procedure.
•
Make sure your meter and test strips are working together properly.
•
Ensure you are performing the test correctly.
Before you use the
myglucohealth
TM
Meter to test your blood for the first time, practice
the procedure using the control solution. When you can do three tests in a row that are
within the expected range, you are ready to test your blood.
When to do a control solution test:
•
When a new vial of test strips is opened.
•
Any suspicion that the meter or the strip is not working properly.
•
When your blood glucose test results are not consistent with your symptoms, or
if you think they are not accurate.
•
If you drop the meter
•
Use routinely to obtain accurate results.
The control solution test is similar to a blood test except that you use the
myglucohealth
