Understanding your test results
The
smartLAB
®
nG
blood glucose test strips are plasma referenced
and calibrated for easier comparison to lab results. The unit of
blood glucose test results displayed on the screen is either mg/
dL or mmol/L, depending on which unit of measurement you have
selected. The mmol/L results will always include a decimal point;
mg/dL results do not include a decimal point.
Expected results for non-diabetic adults:
The normal fasting glucose range is 70 to 100 mg/dL (3.9 to 6.1
mmol/L). Two hours after meals, normal glucose values should be
less than 120 mg/dL (6.7 mmol/L).
Expected results for diabetic adults:
The normal fasting blood glucose range for an adult with diabetes is
70-130 mg/dL (3.9
~
7.2 mmol/L)*. Two hours after meals, the blood
glucose range for an adult with diabetes is less than 180 mg/dL
(10.0 mmol/L). For further queries about diabetes: please consult
your healthcare professional for the blood glucose range
appropriate for you.
Unusual test results:
If your blood glucose result doesn‘t match the way you feel, follow
these steps, and then repeat the test:
1. Check if the strips are within the expiration date.
2. Be sure that the drop of blood completely filled the reaction zone
of the test strip
