How do blood glucose meters work?

A blood glucose meter uses a tiny drop of blood, often taken from a fingertip. The blood drop is applied to a test strip, which is then inserted into the blood glucose meter. The device analyzes the blood sugar level and displays the result on a screen.

What errors can occur during measurement?

Various errors can occur during blood glucose measurement with a blood glucose meter, resulting in an incorrect result. These steps can reduce faulty measurements:

• Clean and disinfect the puncture site beforehand, for example, with practical wipes from Kodan®.
• Use the device according to the instructions. Read the package insert to avoid incorrect use.
• Check the expiration date of the test strips, as well as proper storage.
• Thoroughly wash hands and disinfect the puncture site.
• Dispose of damaged or expired test strips properly. Store the test strips away from sunlight and moisture.

To achieve meaningful measurement results, first thoroughly wash hands and disinfect the puncture site. If you have questions about using your device, feel free to contact our experts.
Damaged or expired test strips should be disposed of properly, as they often provide false test results. Proper storage of the test strips is also crucial to ensure measurement accuracy. The test strips should not be stored openly, away from sunlight and moisture.
