ACCU-CHEK
Guide

25 retail strips

Description
Accu-Chek Guide is the blood glucose monitoring system indicated for people with diabetes for self-monitoring at home and for in vitro diagnostic use by healthcare professionals in clinical settings.
The Accu-Chek Guide system is a unique solution designed to meet the diverse needs of people with diabetes and healthcare professionals. System features, such as the patented, spill-resistant oval bottle and new test strips with a large blood sample application area, represent many smart solutions that simplify blood glucose testing.
The system offers excellent accuracy and precision. Accu-Chek Guide test strips have been subjected to a wide range of tests, including external studies and extensive internal testing. The results of the studies demonstrate that the test strips provide accurate and reliable readings under a variety of conditions.

Accu-Chek Guide strips boast three main features:
- Leak-proof oval bottle: The innovative design of the strip container prevents leaks and makes it easy to remove one strip at a time. The oval shape allows it to fit in your pocket, and the protruding lid is easy to open.
- Large blood sample application area: The new Accu-Chek Guide test strips allow you to apply a small blood sample anywhere on the wide tip, highlighted in yellow and intuitively indicated by red blood drops drawn near the area.
- Excellent accuracy (10/10): The Accu-Chek Guide system complies with ISO 15197:2013/EN ISO 15197:2015 and offers accuracy that exceeds the required requirements, ensuring reliable results.

System accuracy :
1. System accuracy results for glucose concentrations less than 100 mg/dl (less than 5.55 mmol/l):
- within ±5 mg/dl (within ±0.28 mmol/l): 175/186 (94.1%);
- within ±10 mg/dl (within ±0.56 mmol/l): 186/186 (100%);
- within ±15 mg/dl (within ±0.83 mmol/l): 186/186 (100%).

2. System accuracy results for glucose concentrations equal to or greater than 100 mg/dl (equal to or greater than 5.55 mmol/l):
- within ±5 mg/dl: 296/414 (71.5%);
- within ±10 mg/dl: 404/414 (97.6%);
- within ±15 mg/dl: 413/414 (99.8%);

3. System accuracy results for glucose concentrations between 14 mg/ml (0.78 mmol/l) and 578 mg/ml (32.1 mmol/l):
- within ±15 mg/dl or within ±15% (within ±0.83 mmol/l or within ±15%): 599/600 (99.8%).

components
Reagent composition:
Mediator 6.6%;
FAD-GDH enzyme 21.3%;
Buffer 22.6%;

How to use
Read the test strip package insert carefully.
Place the sample on the strip's suction area, highlighted in yellow. Wait approximately 4 seconds for the measurement cycle to complete.
The yellow test area on the strip provides visual confirmation of correct sample application.

warnings
Lipemic samples (triglycerides) >1800 mg/dl (>20.3 mmol/l) may produce elevated blood glucose results.
Do not use this system if you are receiving intravenous infusion of ascorbic acid.
Do not use this system during xylose absorption testing.

Conservation
Store the strips at a temperature between 4°C and 30°C.
The test strips can be used until the expiration date indicated on the package.
This applies to both test strips from a new, unopened bottle and test strips from a previously opened bottle.

Format
Pack of 25 strips.
