Description
xThis product is a blood glucose monitoring system designed for individuals with diabetes. It includes a glucometer and 50 test strips, allowing users to measure their blood sugar levels quickly and accurately. The device features a color-coded display that provides immediate feedback on whether the blood glucose level is within the target range.
Benefits:
-Ease of Use: The glucometer is user-friendly with a simple interface, making it accessible for all age groups.
Accurate Readings: Provides reliable and precise blood glucose measurements, essential for effective diabetes management.
Color-Coded Feedback: Offers visual cues (green, yellow, red) to help users understand their glucose levels at a glance.
Memory Function: Stores previous readings, allowing users to track their glucose trends over time.
Bluetooth Connectivity: Some models may offer connectivity options to sync data with mobile apps for better tracking and management.
Precautions:
-Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use to ensure accurate results.
-Ensure that test strips are stored properly in their original container to avoid contamination or degradation.
-Check expiration dates on test strips before use; expired strips may yield inaccurate results.
-Consult with a healthcare provider before making any changes to diabetes management based on glucometer readings.
Side Effects:
-There are generally no side effects associated with using the glucometer itself; however, improper use can lead to incorrect readings which may affect diabetes management.
-Skin irritation or discomfort may occur at the site of blood sampling if not done correctly.
Main Material and Their Benefits:
Glucometer Components:
-Plastic housing: Provides a lightweight and durable exterior for easy handling.
-Electronic components: Include sensors and circuitry for processing blood glucose readings and displaying results.
-LCD screen: Displays test results and other relevant information clearly.
-Battery: Powers the device, often a coin cell or rechargeable battery.
Test Strips Components:
-Enzymes: Primarily flavin adenine dinucleotide dependent glucose dehydrogenase (FAD-GDH) for glucose detection.
-Metal electrodes: Facilitate the electrochemical reaction necessary for accurate measurements.
-Plastic substrate: Holds the components of the strip together and ensures stability.
-Buffer solutions: Help maintain optimal pH for the enzymatic reaction.
-Drying agent: Included in the vial to protect strips from moisture and preserve their efficacy.
