Blood Glucose Meter
®
If meter A produces a measurement of 60 mg/dL
and meter B measures 80 mg/dL, then both are in the
acceptable range and meet the accuracy requirement.
Each manufacturer has met the System Accuracy
requirement as part of FDA testing to be cleared for
marketing. In the System Accuracy testing, a series of
blood glucose readings will result in various glucose
concentration levels for one manufacturer's system. This
is the same for other manufacturers' systems. Because
of the range of acceptable readings for the accuracy,
identical readings from two different meters on the same
blood sample may not happen.
