UNDERSTANDING TEST RESULTS

The ReliOn Micro blood glucose meter is referenced to a fresh plasma
®
sample. Your meter results may differ from clinical lab results. This is due
to normal variation. To compare your meter with lab results, follow the
guidelines below.
Before you compare
Perform a control solution test. This makes sure your meter and test strips
are working correctly. Wait at least 2 hours after a meal or drink (other than
water) before doing a comparison. If the lab test needs venous blood, you
must fast before giving a blood sample.
When at the lab
Blood samples for both tests must be taken and tested within 15 minutes
of each other. Collect blood for the lab test with an approved preservative.
Heparin samples of blood may be used. See test strip insert for additional
information. ReliOn Micro blood glucose meter is plasma referenced.
