Easy to use and interpret test
strips- Simply apply a drop of blood and match the colors to determine the
blood glucose level
-
Quick and accurate readings
-
A reliable back up or discrete

obtaining replacement batteries may be difficult
The On-Call Blood Glucose Visual strip is a thin, disposable strip with a chemical reagent system to
semi-quantitatively measure glucose levels in capillary whole blood using fingerstick or venous blood samples. The glucose concentration is estimated visually by comparison with the color chart packaged in the strip box
-
Step1 – Apply a drop of blood
-
Step-2- 120 seconds : Match the
color to read result
Accuracy :
A clinical
study was performed , comparing the ACON On-Call Blood Glucose Visual strips
using visual interpretation to a laboratory reference method (YSI 2300 STAT PLUS
Glucose Analyzer). When interpreted using the color blocks on the color chart,
95% of the readings fell within the correct concentration range corresponding to
the reference value. These results showed 95% accuracy (91%-98% for Confidence
Interval of 95%) for the ACON On -Call Blood Glucose Visual
Strips.
This will indicated whether the patient is diabetic and if so the severity of diabetes in clinical terms.
