COMPARING METER AND LABORATORY
RESULTS
The meter provides you with whole blood equivalent results.
The result you obtain from your meter may differ somewhat
from your laboratory result due to normal variation. Meter
results can be affected by factors and conditions that do
not affect laboratory results in the same way. (See test strip
package insert for typical accuracy and precision data, and
for important information on Limitations.) To make an ac-
curate comparison between meter and laboratory results,
follow the guidelines below .
Before you go to the lab:
Perform a control solution test to make sure that the me-
ter is working properly.
Fast for at least eight hours before doing comparison
tests, if possible.
Take your meter with you to the lab.
While at the lab:
Make sure that the samples for both tests (the meter test
and the lab test) are taken and tested within 15 minutes
of each other.
Wash your hands before obtaining a blood sample.
Never use your meter with blood that has been collected
in a gray-top test tube.
Use fresh capillary blood only.
