The TRUE METRIX Self Monitoring Blood Glucose System is intended to be used by a single person and not shared.
The TRUE METRIX Self Monitoring Blood Glucose System is intended for self-testing outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use) by people with diabetes at home as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control. The TRUE METRIX Self Monitoring Blood Glucose System should not be used for the diagnosis or screening of diabetes or for neonatal use. Alternative site testing should be done only during steady-state times (when glucose is not changing rapidly).
The TRUE METRIX Self Monitoring Test Strips are for use with the TRUE METRIX Self Monitoring Meter to quantitatively measure glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertip or forearm.
The TRUE METRIX PRO Professional Monitoring Blood Glucose System is intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertip or forearm and venous whole blood.
The TRUE METRIX PRO Professional Monitoring Blood Glucose System is intended for muitiple-patient use in professional healthcare settings. Testing is performed outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use) as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control. The TRUE METRIX PRO Professional Monitoring Blood Glucose System is used only with single-use, auto-disabling lancing devices. The system is not to be used for neonates or for the diagnosis or screening of diabetes. Alternative site testing should be done only during steady-state times (when glucose is not changing rapidly).
