Comparing Meter and Laboratory Results

The test result you obtain from your meter may differ
somewhat from your laboratory results 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 accurate comparison between meter and
laboratory results, follow the guidelines below.
Before you go to the laboratory:
• Perform a control solution test to make sure that the
meter is working properly.
• It is strongly recommended to fast for at least eight (8)
hours before doing comparison tests.
• Take your meter with you to the laboratory.
While at the laboratory:
• Make sure that the samples for both tests (the meter test
and the laboratory 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.
