IMPORTANCE OF BLOOD GLUCOSE MONITORING
e more you know about diabetes, the better
you will be able to take care of yourself. A Doctor
or Healthcare Professional will determine target
ranges for blood glucose results and how oen to
test. Having most results within the target ranges
shows how well a treatment plan is working to
control glucose levels. Keeping most results within
the target ranges helps slow or stop complications
of diabetes.
NEVER change a treatment plan without consulting
with a Doctor or Healthcare Professional.
Use of the TRUEresult Blood Glucose Monitoring
System in a manner not specied in this Owner’s
Booklet is not recommended and may aect your
ability to determine true blood glucose levels.
e TRUEresult System is an in vitro
(outside body) quantitative system that is used for
self-testing and point-of-care testing of only human
whole blood. e most accurate results come from
using fresh whole blood taken from the ngertip or
forearm (capillary) or from the vein (venous).

3
What you need to know when using the
TRUEresult System:
• Read all product instructions for use before
testing.
• Use only TRUEresult Test Strips and TRUEresult
Control Solution with TRUEresult Meter.
• To help prevent false high results, wash hands
before using the System to test blood, especially
aer handling fruit or other foods containing
sugar.
• Perform Control Tests before performing a blood
glucose test for the rst time (see Control Test).
• Remove only one Test Strip at a time from vial
when testing. Recap vial immediately aer re-
moving Test Strip.
• NEVER reuse Test Strips. NEVER wipe Test
Strips with water, alcohol or any cleaner. DO
NOT attempt to clean and re-use Test Strips.
Reuse of Test Strips will cause inaccurate results.
• NEVER add a second drop of sample to Test
Strip. Adding more sample to the Test Strip gives
an error message.
• Venous whole blood collected into sodium or
lithium heparin blood collection tubes may be
used for testing by Healthcare Professionals.
Use of EDTA blood collection tubes is not
recommended and may cause low results. Mix
tube contents gently before using.

IMPORTANT HEALTH and SAFETY
INFORMATION:
e TRUEresult Blood Glucose Monitoring System
is for one person use ONLY. DO NOT share
your Meter or your Lancing Device with anyone,
including family members. DO NOT use on more
than one person. ALL parts of the TRUEresult Blood
Glucose Monitoring System could carry blood-
borne pathogens aer use, even aer cleaning and
disinfection.
2,3
For cleaning and disinfecting the Meter, see Care,
Cleaning/Disinfecting. For cleaning and disinfecting
the lancing device, see the lancing device’s
Instructions for Use.
We suggest cleaning the Meter when visibly dirty
or if blood is on the Meter. Wash your hands
thoroughly with soap and warm water aer
handling the Meter, lancing device, or Test Strips
as contact with blood presents an infection risk.
Reuse of devices labeled for single-use may result
in product contamination and patient infection.

5
•
DO NOT perform capillary blood glucose
testing on critically ill patients. Capillary blood
glucose levels in critically ill patients with reduced
peripheral blood ow may not reect the true
physiological state. Reduced peripheral blood ow
may result from the following conditions (for
example):
4
~ shock
~ severe hypotension
~ severe dehydration
~ hyperglycaemia with hyperosmolarity,
with or without ketosis.
• Do not use TRUEresult for the diagnosis of
diabetes or for testing blood glucose in neonates
(newborns).
•
Do not use TRUEresult System during a xylose
absorption test. is may falsely raise glucose
results.
