Displaying Units of Measure

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT UNITS OF MEASURE

■Different units of measure are standard in different countries or regions. Milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) is the standard unit used in the United States. The unit of measurement used in Canada, some European countries and other parts of the world is mmol/L. This unit includes a decimal point but mg/dL results do not.

■There is a significant difference in the glucose reading depending on the units of measurement, mg/dL or mmol/L.

■To view results in OneTouch® DMS the same way they are displayed in your meter, refer to your meter display where the glucose unit of measure appears with the test result. If you wish to view results differently from the meter, OneTouch® DMS can automatically convert readings for display without affecting the setting in the meter.
