Checking with Advocate™ Control Solutions
Advocate™ control solutions contain a known amount of glucose that re -
acts with test strips. By comparing your control solution test results with
the expected range printed on the test strip vial label, it is able to check
that the monitor and the test strips are working together as a system and
that you are performing the test correctly. It is very important that you do
this simple check routinely to make sure you get accurate results.
How often the control solution test should be performed?
When you use this system to test your blood for the first time, practice
the procedure using control solution. When you can do three tests in
a row that are within the expected range, you are ready to test your
blood.
To routinely check the monitor and test strips, perform a single test for
each level of control solution supplied at least once a week.
When should the control solution test be performed?
When you first get your Monitor.
When you begin using a new vial of test strips.
Whenever you suspect that the monitor or test strips are not working
properly.
When your blood glucose test results are not consistent with how you
feel, or when you think your results are not accurate.
When your test strips are exposed to extreme environmental condi -
tions (See TAKE CARE OF YOUR MONITOR & STRIP section of this
manual).
When you want to practice running the test.
If you drop the monitor.
