INTENDED USE
The Control Solution is a desired aqueous glucose solution with small amounts of non-reactive ingredients and food coloring for verifying
the accuracy of the entire Blood Glucose Monitoring System. The Control Solution test examines the performance of the Glucose Meter,
Test Strip, and your operating techniques.
WHEN TO PERFORM A CONTROL SOLUTION TEST
EasyTouch® Control Solution can be used to verify that the EasyTouch® Glucose Monitoring system is working correctly and giving
accurate results. The system is performing correctly if the control solution test result falls within the specific control solution range listed
on your Test Strip vial. You are encouraged to use Control Solution on a regular basis.
If you suspect your blood glucose test are not consistent with how you feel or your test are higher or lower than normal, you may validate
the performance of your test with Control Solution.
CONTROL SOLUTION CONTENTS
Each Control Solution is provided as a buffered, stabilized,
aqueous solution of desired D(+)-glucose containing a
preservative and other non-reactive ingredients. The solutions
are formulated to react equivalently to a whole blood
sample containing approximate 50 or 300 mg/dL glucose
concentrations. Compare control solution test results against
the ranges printed on your Glucose Test Strip vial.
CAUTION: Control Solution is for in vitro use only. It is not to be
swallowed or injected. The use of the Control Solution is
recommended to verify proper system performance and should
not be considered as a substitution of actual capillary whole blood
testing for blood glucose level.
MATERIALS REQUIRED
1. Glucose Meter
2. Test Strip
3. Control Solution
4. Clean, nonabsorbent surface
Note: Please make sure you are using the same model of Test Strip and Glucose Meter.
TEST PROCEDURE
PREPARATION
After you have inserted a test strip into your Glucose Meter, make sure that you have set the Glucose Meter in the Control Solution test
“ctl“ mode, so the result will not be stored in the memory and not be incorporated into the average. Please read your Blood Glucose
Monitoring System User Manual.
