About Testing Yourself or Others
w WARNING:
Certain substances can interfere with the ACCU-CHEK Aviva Expert blood glucose system and cause falsely
high results. For example, peritoneal dialysis solutions containing icodextrin (such as Extraneal) or certain
immunoglobulin therapies that contain maltose (such as Octagam 5 %) cause inaccurate results. For more
information, refer to the Test Strip Package Insert or ask your healthcare professional.
• If you are very dehydrated or urinating frequently, you may get an inaccurate test result. If you think you are
dehydrated, call your healthcare professional right away.
• Some people with diabetes do not experience symptoms of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Others, such as
children or people who are unconscious or have certain disabilities, may not be able to communicate their
symptoms to caregivers. For these reasons, do not change any treatment without rst talking to a
healthcare professional.
• Run a control test when you open a new box of test strips or if you think that your test result is incorrect.
Running a control test lets you know that the meter and test strips are working properly.
