Accu-Chek Instant test strips, together with the Accu-Chek Instant and Accu-Chek Instant S meters, are intended for the quantitative determination of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood obtained from the finger, palm, forearm and upper arm as an aid in monitoring the effectiveness of glucose control.
Accu-Chek Instant test strips, together with Accu-Chek Instant and Accu-Chek Instant C blood glucose meters, are intended for in vitro diagnostics for self-monitoring by patients with diabetes. Venous, arterial and neonatal blood may only be used by physicians.
This system is not intended for the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus or the analysis of neonatal cord blood samples.
Application features
A normal fasting glucose level in adults without diabetes is less than 5.6 mmol/L (100 mg/dL).
A normal glucose level in adults without diabetes 2 hours after a meal, for example, when simulated by a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), is less than 7.8 mmol/L (140 mg/dL). The criterion for diagnosing diabetes in adults is a fasting blood glucose level confirmed by two determinations of 7.0 mmol/L or higher (126 mg/dL or higher). Adults with fasting blood glucose levels of 5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L (100 to 125 mg/dL) are defined as having impaired fasting glucose (prediabetes). There are also other criteria for diagnosing diabetes. To determine whether you have diabetes, talk to your doctor.
