The SD GlucoMentor multi Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended to be used for the quantitative measurement of glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole blood from fingertip, palm, upper arm, or forearm. The SD GlucoMentor multi Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for testing outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use) and is intended for multiple-patient use in professional healthcare settings as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control program. This system should only be used with auto-disabling, single-use lancing devices.

The SD GlucoMentor multi Bleod Glucose Monitoring System should not be used for the diagnosis of or screening for diabetes, or for neonatal use, Alternative site testing should be done only during steady-state times (when glucose is not changing rapidly).

The SD GlucoMentor multi Blood Glucose Test Strips are for use with the SD GlucoMentor multi Blood Glucose Meter to quantitatively measure glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertips, forearm, upper arm, or palm.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
