4Intended Use
The FreeStyle Optium Neo Blood Glucose and Ketone Monitoring System is foruse outside
the body only (in vitro diagnostic use) for self testing or professional use as an aid in the
management of diabetes.
Use for measuring glucose in fresh whole blood samples taken from ngers, forearm, upper
arm or the base of the thumb. Use for measuring ketone (β-hydroxybutyrate) in fresh whole
blood samples from ngers only.
The system may also aid in the management of diabetes by providing the user with suggested
recommendations to insulin dose(s) based on healthcare professional entered data.
