Quality Control Testing
To assure accurate and reliable results,
TRUE METRIX PRO oers two kinds
of Quality Control Tests. ese tests
ensure that TRUE METRIX PRO is
working properly and testing technique
is good.
Automatic Self-Test
An Automatic Self-Test is performed
by the meter each time a test strip is
inserted correctly into the Test Port.
Insert a test strip into the Test Port.
e meter is working properly if:
~ the full Display appears, then
~ the time appears in the upper
part of the Display, and then,
~ the Drop Symbol begins to blink.
If an error message appears in the Display,
the meter will not perform a test.
See Troubleshooting or call for assistance
(see Booklet cover for phone number).
Caution! If any segments are missing in the Display
when meter is first turned on, do not use the
meter for testing. Call for assistance.

Control Test
We recommend performing Control Tests to check the
performance of the system.
Control Tests should be performed:
• Before using the System for the rst time,
• For practice to ensure testing technique is good,
• When opening a new vial of test strips,
• If results seem unusually high or low, based on
patient's condition,
• If a vial has been le opened or exposed to extreme
heat or cold, or humidity,
• Whenever a check on the performance of the system is
needed,
• If meter damage is suspected (meter was dropped,
crushed, wet, etc.).
Note: It is important to perform Control Tests with more
than one level of control solution. ree levels of
TRUE METRIX Control Solution are available
for Control Tests. Call 1-800-803-6025, Monday -
Friday, 8AM-8PM EST, for assistance in obtaining
dierent levels of control solution.
Caution! Ranges printed on test strip vial label are for
Control Test results only and are not to be used
for management of patient’s blood glucose.
Do not drink control solution.

Blood Glucose Testing
Obtaining a Blood Sample
Refer to your facility approved method for lancing to
obtain a blood sample for blood glucose testing.
Follow the facility's precautions for blood-borne
pathogens or refer to Biosafety in Microbiological and
Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL) practice guidelines at
http://www.cdc.gov/biosafety/publications/bmbl5/ .
"Protection of Laboratory Workers From Occupationally
Acquired Infections, Approved Guidelines - ird Edition."
Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) M29-A3 .
Venous whole blood collected only in sodium heparin
tubes may be used for testing. Mix well before use.
DO NOT use sodium uoride (grey top) vacutainer
tubes. is may cause false low glucose results.
Caution! • ALL parts of the TRUE METRIX PRO
blood glucose monitoring system could carry
blood-borne pathogens aer use, even aer
cleaning and disinfecting.
2
• You should clean and disinfect the meter aer
each use to prevent the transmission of blood-
borne pathogens.
• ONLY use auto-disabling single use lancing
devices/lancets to obtain capillary blood sample.
• A new pair of gloves should be worn before
obtaining blood sample from each patient.

Tips for Fingertip Sampling
1. Select ngertip. Clean area with soap and warm
water, rinse or use an approved disinfectant to clean
the area. Dry thoroughly.
2. Lance nger.
3. To help blood drop form, lower the hand to a level
below the heart and gently massage the nger from
palm to ngertip. Allow the blood drop to form
before attempting to apply the test strip. Apply sample
to Sample Tip.
4. Discard all biohazard materials into appropriate
container. Wash hands aer taking o gloves.

Tips for Forearm Sampling
Important Notes Regarding Forearm Testing
4
• Check with the patient's Doctor or Diabetes
Healthcare Professional to see if forearm testing is
appropriate for the patient.
• Results from the forearm are not always the same as
results from the nger.
• Use nger for testing instead of forearm for more
accurate results:
~ Within 2 hours of eating, exercise, or taking insulin,
~ If the patient’s blood glucose may be rising or falling
rapidly or their results oen uctuate,
~ If the patient is ill or under stress,
~ If the glucose result may be low or high,
~ If symptoms of low or high glucose levels are not
evident.
1. Select area. Clean the area with soap and warm water,
rinse or use an approved disinfectant. Dry thoroughly.
2. Rub area vigorously or apply a warm, dry compress to
increase blood ow.
3. Lance forearm. Apply sample to Sample Tip.
4. Discard all biohazard materials into appropriate
container. Wash hands aer taking o gloves.
Caution! Used test strips and lancets are considered
biohazardous. Dispose used test strips and
lancets into approved biohazard container.
