meters was evaluated
with three lots of sensors. The evaluation was performed
by three operators who utilized three liquid control glucose
levels under normal conditions of use over the course of 10
days. In total, three hundred sensors were used for each
glucose level. The Grand Mean, pooled standard deviation
and pooled %CV for each glucose level were calculated
and are presented here.
