•
Glucose in blood samples reacts with the chemical in the
test strip to produce a small electrical current. The TEE2
Plus meter detects this electrical current and measures the
amount of glucose in the blood sample.
•
The TEE2 Plus blood glucose meter is designed to minimise
code related errors in monitoring by using the no-coding
function.
•
The TEE2 Plus blood glucose meter should be used only
with the TEE2 Test Strips.
•
An abnormally high or low red blood cell count (hematocrit
level over 65 % or below 15 %) 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.
•
Inaccurate results may occur in severely hypotensive
individuals or patients in shock. Inaccurate low 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.
•
Inaccurate results may occur in patients undergoing oxygen
therapy.
