INTENDED USE
The Wellion GALILEO GLU/KET (plus) Blood Glucose and Ketone Monitoring System
is intended to quantitatively measure blood glucose in fresh capillary whole blood
drawn from fingertips, palm, or forearm, and blood ketone in venous whole blood or
capillary whole blood from fingertips. Alternative site testing for glucose test should
be performed only during steady-state (when glucose is not changing rapidly). Testing
is done outside the body (In Vitro diagnostic use).
The system is intended for self-testing by people with diabetes or in clinical settings by
healthcare professionals, as an aid in monitoring blood glucose level and blood ketone
level in diabetes mellitus. It is not indicated for diagnosis or screening of diabetes or
for neonatal use.
IMPORTANT:
t
Dehydration – Severe dehydration may lead to inaccurate blood glucose test result.
If you suspect you are severely dehydrated, contact your healthcare professional
immediately.
t
Haematocrit range - A haematocrit range that is higher than 70% or lower than 20%
can cause inaccurate blood glucose test results. A haematocrit range that is higher
than 60% or lower than 20% can cause inaccurate blood ketone test results.
t
Suitable for self-testing.
t
Not intended for use on neonates.
