wTest result ranges color coding
The following types of measuring ranges can be
distinguished:
• System measuring range
• Institution-set measuring range
The ranges define details of the glucose result screen
(such as the color coding and showing quantitative or
qualitative result values) and can be used to trigger
specific messages.
For glucose test strips, the system measuring range is 10
to 600 mg/dL (0.6 to 33.3 mmol/L).
The table contains examples of glucose test results in the
different ranges. The numbering of the examples
corresponds with the numbering in the color coding
image above.
