* Acceptance criteria in ISO 15197: 2003 are that 95% of all differences in glucose values should be within 15 mg/dL for
glucose values less than 75 mg/dL (top table) and within 20% for glucose values greater than 75 mg/dL (bottom table).
NOTE:
When glucose meter results are compared to the laboratory results, difference values below 75 mg/dL are expressed in
mg/dL, while those above 75 mg/dL are compared in percent.
