Blood application on the middle of the test pad. The test strip (and its components) has the function to spread the blood above the test area in a quick and hygienic way
Blood can be applied to already inserted test strip, or a test strip outside the meter. Outside of the meter dosing is helpful to minimise the risk of contamination when a meter has multiple users (e.g. in a hospital) and, in case of alternative site testing, to facilitate blood application
Additional blood can be added to the test strip within 10 seconds after applying the first drop (applies for inside mode)
20 – 55 % (within-meter mode), 20 – 70 % (outside-meter mode)
The test strips remain stable at least up to the expiry date printed on the test strip vial, even after opening (the test strip vial must be closed tightly after each test strip is removed)
Testing your blood glucose is an essential part of managing diabetes. The Accu-Chek Active blood glucose meter can help to make it convenient by giving you fast, hassle-free, and accurate1,2 results in 4 simple steps.
