Specific
for Glucose - NO interference from other sugars |
| Some
brands of blood glucose monitors in Australia will measure maltose,
galactose and xylose as glucose, and give falsely increased blood
glucose readings if you have any of these sugars in your blood system. All
CareSens monitors use a highly specific Glucose oxidase reagent
that will only measure glucose. These other sugars are present in
some dialysis fluids and other medications. See
a warning from the FDA here..... |
|
| Tiny
Amount of Blood Needed |
A
very small volume of blood (0.5 ul) is utilized for testing. This
greatly reduces the pain in getting your blood sample by either
sampling from your finger using the lowest depth setting of your
lancing device, OR sampling at alternative sites where only a small
blood sample can be retrieved, but with much less pain. Such alternative
sites include forearms, palms, thighs, etc.
Please consult your doctor before monitoring your blood glucose
from alternative sites. |

Accurate
Results |

Testing
can be performed in a wide range of temperature (10-40 Celsius),
relative humidity (10-90%) and haemtocrit levels (20-60%).
A comparative evaluation performed by the International Diabetes
Institute (Melbourne) found CareSens to be the most accurate of
the glucose meters tested against the reference method.
