Checking the System
NOTE: Refer to additional information in the OneTouch® Ultra® Control Solution package.
OneTouch® Ultra® Control Solution is used to check that the meter and the test strips are working together as a system and that you are performing the test correctly.
OneTouch® Ultra® Control Solution contains a measured amount of glucose that reacts with OneTouch® Ultra® Test Strips. Compare your control solution test results with the range printed on the test strip vial label. It is very important that you do this simple check routinely to make sure you get an accurate result.
Before you use the OneTouch® Ultra® Meter to test your blood for the first time, practice the procedure using control solution. When you can do three tests in a row that are within the range, you are ready to test your blood.
