Intended use
The PETRACKR®Veterinary Blood Glucose Monitoring
System is intended to be used for the quantitative
measurement of glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary
whole blood samples drawn from the pinna or paw pad
samples. The system is intended to be used by a single
pet and should not be shared.
The PETRACKR®Veterinary Blood Glucose Monitoring
System is intended for in vitro diagnostic use for
blood glucose monitoring of cats and dogs as part
of diabetes management, to be used by veterinary
professionals and pet owners. The PETRACKR®
Veterinary Blood Glucose Monitoring System is not for
use on critically ill patients/pets, patients/pets in shock,
dehydrated patients/pets or hyperosmolar pets.
Test principle
Glucose in the blood sample mixes with the enzyme
FAD-GDH (Seepage86) in the test strip and a small
electric current is produced. The strength of this current
changes with the amount of glucose in the blood
sample.
Your analyzer measures the current and calculates the
blood glucose level. It then displays the blood glucose
result and stores it in the analyzer memory.

PETRACKR®Owner’s Booklet 9
Bluetooth®wireless technology
Bluetooth®wireless technology is used by some
smartphones and many other devices. Your PETRACKR®
Analyzer uses Bluetooth®wireless technology to pair and
to send your patients/pets glucose results to compatible
wireless devices. The PETRACKR®Analyzer is designed
to work with the PETRACKR®Analyzer Mobile App. Visit
www.universalbiosensors.com/products/petrackr/ for
information on which wireless devices are compatible
with your PETRACKR®Analyzer, and where/how to
download the PETRACKR®Analyzer Mobile App on your
compatible wireless device.
When using the PETRACKR®System, we suggest you
pair your PETRACKR®Analyzer with a compatible
wireless device and track your results. See page 33 for
pairing instructions.
If you experience analyzer interference problems, try
moving your analyzer away from the source of the
interference. You can also move the electronic device or
its antenna to another location to solve the problem.
