The MEG-2B3 Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertips, forearm, or palm. It is indicated for lay use by people with diabetes as an aid to monitoring levels in Diabetes Mellitus and should only be used by a single patient. This system should not be shared. It is not indicated for the diagnosis or screening of diabetes or for neonatal use.

The MEG-2B3 Blood Glucose Test Strips are to be used with the MEG-2B3 Blood Glucose Meters to quantitatively measure glucose in capillary whole blood taken from fingertips, palm, or forearm. They are intended for lay use by people with diabetes and should only be used by a single patient. This system should not be shared. They are not indicated for the diagnosis or screening of diabetes or for neonatal use.

The MEG-2B3 Pro Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertips, forearm, or palm. It is indicated to be use for multiple patients in a clinical setting by healthcare professionals, as an aid to monitoring levels in Diabetes Mellitus. This system is only used with single-use, auto-disabling lancing device. It is not indicated for the diagnosis or screening of diabetes or for neonatal use.

The MEG-2B3 Pro Blood Glucose Test Strips are td be used with the MEG-2B3 Pro Blood Glucose Meter; it measures glucose in capillar whole blood taken from a fingertip; palm, or forearm. It is indicated in a clinical setting to be used for multiple patients by healthcare professionals. This system is only used with single-use, auto-disabling lancing device.

The purpose of the control solution test is to validate the performance of the Blood Glucose Monitoring System using a testing solution with a-known range of glucose. A control test that falls within the acceptable range indicates the user's technique is appropriate and the test strip and meter are functioning properly.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
