CHAPTER 4 – TESTING YOUR BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVEL
The glucose meter in Dario™ measures the amount of glucose in your blood.
Once placing a small drop of blood from your fingertip onto the test strip, the
result will be displayed in six (6) seconds.
Carefully read and follow the instructions provided in this chapter and in the
package inserts for the test strips and control solutions. It is very important to
follow
the instructions in order to prevent an incorrect result or improper treatment.
Do not put any fluid into the test strip port.
Once you start your Dario™ app, follow the prompts on the screen.
BLOOD GLUCOSE TESTING PRECAUTIONS
The meter, test strips, and control solutions are only for use outside
the body (in vitro). Do not eat the test strips. Do not swallow or inject
control solutions, or use control solutions for any purpose other than
testing your blood glucose.
The meter and lancing device are for single patient use. Do not
share them with anyone including other family members! Do not use
on multiple patients
It is advised that you wash hands thoroughly with soap and water
before and after handling the meter, lancing device, or test strips.
Incorrect test results can cause the wrong therapy recommendation to be made
and may lead to serious adverse health effects. Therefore, please follow these
instructions carefully.
Test Strip Precautions
Only use Dario™ test strips. Using other test strips with this glucose meter can
produce inaccurate results.
Inspect each test strip cartridge before opening it for the first time. If you see
any damage to the cartridge lid, or if anything prevents the lid from closing
properly, do not use the test strips.
Store unused test strips in their original cartridge. Do not remove test strips
from the test strip cartridge and put them into another container.
