Chapter 6: Proficiency Test
Proficiency Test - Ketone (Beta-Hydroxybutyrate)
Please use the following procedures to perform a ketone prociency test.
What You See on the Display What You Do Comments
1. Follow steps 1 to 8 in the last section on
the Glucose Proficiency Test. Make sure
you use the purple Blood β-Ketone Test
Strip for the blood Ketone Proficiency
Test. The meter will recognise the strip
based on the barcode.
Prior to inserting the test strip, ensure that
the strip port module is installed and that it
is clean and dry. Replace if necessary. The
display will alternate between Insert Strip
and Ketone.
2. Ensure proficiency survey specimens
are at room temperature. Mix each
specimen well according to instructions
from the survey provider. Wipe away
any specimen on the tip of the vial before
squeezing the vial and applying a drop to
the test strip target area. After applying
the sample, recap the vial tightly.
When sufficient sample has been applied,
the meter beeps, displays Sample
Accepted and automatically starts the test.
For a detailed description of the test strip
target area, refer to the Test Strips section of
Chapter 1.
