4 Glucose Control Testing
4.1 Information regarding glucose control tests
Observe the applicable regulations and directives of the
responsible regulatory agencies when performing glu-
cose control tests.
Accurately testing known levels of glucose ensures that
the system and your technique used in testing give accu-
rate results on patient tests. Glucose control solutions
have defined (known) values. The results for these solu-
tions must first fall within a certain acceptable range in
order to allow valid patient testing.
The system may be configured to require in-range glu-
cose control testing before patient testing is allowed. This
is called QC Lockout, and the system actually prevents
patient and proficiency testing when the control results
are not within the accepted range.
