PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS:
Precision
1. Laboratory Precision: To assess the repeatability (within-run
precision) of Ascensia™ B
REEZE
™, 100 blood glucose
readings (10 readings on each of 10 instruments) were
obtained with venous blood specimens at five glucose
concentrations. The following table summarizes the mean
and pooled within-meter %CV at each level.
2. Control Testing Precision: An imprecision study of the
Ascensia B
REEZE
System was conducted at two diabetes
clinics. In each location, 50 lay persons with diabetes tested
the low, normal and high control solutions in duplicate
using the meter system. A different lot of test strips was
used in each of the two locations. The table below shows
the total standard deviations (SD) and coefficients of
variation (CV), which include the within run and between
run / day variations.
