ONETOUCH Test Strips Select Plus 25s
ONETOUCH Test Strips Select Plus are medical devices used in conjunction with a compatible blood glucose meter to measure blood glucose levels. These strips are designed to help individuals with diabetes monitor their blood sugar levels accurately and manage their condition effectively.
Description:
1. Formulation
o Main Components
a. Test Strip Material: Made of a specialized absorbent material that interacts with glucose in the blood sample.
b. Reagent Chemicals: Include enzymes (often glucose oxidase) and other chemicals that react with glucose in the blood to produce an electrochemical signal. This signal is then measured by the glucose meter.
c. Electrodes: Embedded in the strip to facilitate the electrochemical reaction and ensure accurate readings.
d. Protective Layer: Coats the test strip to protect the reagents and ensure the accuracy of the test.
2. Indications
o Blood Glucose Monitoring: To measure and monitor blood glucose levels in individuals with diabetes, helping them manage their condition.
o Daily Testing: Used for routine blood glucose testing to assess how well diabetes management strategies are working.
o Health Management: Assists in adjusting diet, exercise, and medication based on blood glucose readings.
3. Age Groups
o Adults: Suitable for adults managing diabetes.
o Children: Can be used by children with diabetes under adult supervision, particularly when using the device and interpreting results.
4. Contraindications
o Not for Use in Diagnosing Diabetes: These test strips are not intended for diagnosing diabetes or making clinical decisions without professional consultation.
o Incorrect Meter Use: The test strips should only be used with compatible ONETOUCH glucose meters. Using them with an incompatible meter can lead to inaccurate results.
o Expired or Damaged Strips: Do not use expired or damaged test strips as they may not provide accurate results.
o Contaminated Samples: Ensure that blood samples are taken according to the instructions to avoid contamination, which could affect the test results.
Note: Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper use and storage of test strips. Consult with a healthcare provider for specific advice and guidance related to blood glucose monitoring and diabetes management.
