The OneTouch® Ultra® Meter displays results between 1.1 to 33.3 mmol/L (20 and 600 mg/dL). If your blood glucose test result is lower than 1.1 mmol/L (20 mg/dL), T will appear on the meter display. This indicates severe hypoglycemia (low blood glucose). You should treat this condition according to the recommendations of your healthcare professional.
If your blood glucose test result is above
33.3mmol/L (600 mg/dL), S will appear on the meter display. This indicates severe hyperglycemia (high blood glucose). You should recheck your blood glucose level. If S again appears on the display, call your doctor immediately.
When your blood glucose test result is above
13.3mmol/L (240 mg/dL) or reads S “Ç” will appear on the meter display. This message does not mean that the system detected ketones but that testing with a ketone test strip may be advisable. Consult your healthcare professional about when and how to test for ketones.
