• The GLUCOCARD Shine XL Blood Glucose Monitoring
System is intended for self-testing in vitro (outside the body)
diagnostic use.
• The GLUCOCARD Shine XL Blood Glucose Meter is designed
to minimize code related errors in monitoring by using the
no-coding function.
• Glucose in blood samples reacts with the chemical in the test
strip to produce a small electrical current. The GLUCOCARD
Shine XL Meter detects this electrical current and measures
the amount of glucose in the blood sample.
• The GLUCOCARD Shine XL Blood Glucose Meter should only
be used with GLUCOCARD Shine Test Strips.
• An abnormally high or low red blood cell count (hematocrit
level over 60 % or below 20 %) may produce inaccurate
results.
• Inaccurate results may occur in severely hypotensive (having
low blood pressure) individuals or patients in shock.
• Inaccurate low results may occur for individuals experiencing
a hyperglycemic-hyperosmolar state, with or without ketosis.
• Critically ill patients should not be tested with blood
glucose meters.
• Inaccurate results may occur in patients undergoing
oxygen therapy.
