Patient Results

The meter displays results between 0 and 500 mg/dL (27.8 mmol/L). The meter displays HI for results greater than 500 mg/dL.

If an error message appears, refer to the troubleshooting section for information.

IMPORTANT

When the result is greater than 500 mg/dL and proper procedures are followed, the meter will display HI in virtually all cases. Additionally, the confirmation dot will be darker than the 350-mg/dL sample color dot on the test strip bottle Color Chart. This indicates hyperglycemia. Follow your institution’s policies for treatment.

If you have problems using the meter to test patient samples, or if the meter malfunctions, call the LifeScan Healthcare Professional Line at 1 800 524-7226.
