fresh capillary whole blood sample. The system
is intended for use in the home and in clinical
settings. It should not be used for the diagnosis
of diabetes or for the testing of newborns.
Principle of measurement
Blood glucose is measured by an electrical
current that is produced when a blood sample
mixes with the reagent (special chemical) of the
test strip. The electrical current changes with
the amount of glucose in the blood sample.
The PalmDoc I meter measures the strength
of the electrical current, calculates your blood
glucose level and then displays your result
in mmol/L.
