Comparing Meter and Laboratory Results
The meter provides you with plasma blood equivalent results. The
result you obtain from your meter may differ somewhat from your
laboratory result due to normal variation. Meter results may be affected
by factors and conditions that do not affect laboratory results in the
same way. To make an accurate comparison between meter and
laboratory results, follow the guidelines below.
Before going to the lab:
● Perform a control solution test to make sure that the meter is work-
