• Glucose Control Testing
58
Glucose control testing intervals Intervals between running glucose control tests are
determined by your facility. These intervals are entered
when the system is configured. At the end of the speci-
fied interval (or after a specific event such as starting to
test with a new test strip lot), a warning is displayed when
the meter is switched on and when the
Glucose Test
function is selected.
Glucose control tests should be run in the following cir-
cumstances:
■
Before using the meter for patient testing the first
time
■
At the glucose control intervals established by your
facility
■
When using a new test strip vial for the first time
■
When using a new test strip lot for the first time
(and as a result a new test strip code)
■
If a test strip vial was left open
■
If questionable test results are displayed repeatedly
■
If you wish to test the performance of the system
In addition, the following events can be specified during
setup as a reason for a glucose control test:
■
If a previous control test is out of range
■
If glucose control tests were not run at the proper
intervals
