The GLUCO-CARE® HS100 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. Alternative site testing should be performed only during steady-state (when glucose is not changing rapidly). Testing is done outside the body (In Vitro diagnostic use). It is intended for self-testing by people with diabetes at home as an aid to monitor the effective-ness of diabetes control. It should only be used by a single patient and it should not be shared. It is not indicated for the diagnosis of or screening for diabetes orfor neonatal use.The GLUCO-CARE® HS100 Blood Glucose Monitoring System is comprised of the GLUCO-CARE® HS100 Blood Glucose Meter and GLUCO-CARE® HS100 Blood Glucose Test Strip.
A collection of devices including a portable, battery-powered, semi-automated or automated instrument (self-testing meter), reagents, test strips and/or other associated materials and accessories (e.g., control solutions, lancets) intended to be used for the quantitative measurement of glucose in a whole blood clinical specimen; it is designed to be used for self-testing by a layperson in the home, and some types may in addition be used at the point-of-care.
