The On Call® Plus Blood
Glucose Test Strips are thin strips with a chemical reagent system.
They work with the On Call® Plus Blood Glucose Meter to measure the
glucose concentration in whole blood. Blood is applied to the end tip of
the test strip.
The
blood is then automatically absorbed into the reaction cell. The
reaction takes place in the reaction cell. A transient electrical
current is formed during the reaction which is detected by the meter.
The blood glucose concentration is then calculated based on the
electrical current.
The
result is then shown on the meter display. The meters are calibrated to
display plasma equivalent results. For in vitro diagnostic use. Test
strips are only to be used outside the body for testing purposes, for
the quantitative measurement of glucose in capillary whole blood from
the finger, forearm and palm, by people with diabetes at home and by
healthcare professionals as an aid in monitoring the effectiveness of
diabetes control programs.
