Testing blood glucose in more than one patient – Information for healthcare professionals
Patients and medical staff are potentially at
risk of becoming infected if the same
Accu-Chek Active meter is used to test blood
glucose in several patients. All objects that
come into contact with human blood are
potential sources of infection (see: Clinical and
Laboratory Standards Institute: Protection of
Laboratory Workers from Occupationally
Acquired Infections; Approved Guideline –
Third Edition; CLSI document M29-A3, 2005).
Residues of water or disinfectant on the skin
can dilute the drop of blood and so produce
incorrect results.
Dispose of used lancets or disposable lancing
devices and used test strips according to the
health and safety policy of your laboratory or
institution.
