- The OneTouch Verio® Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended to be used for the quantitative measurement of glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertip. The system is intended to be used by a single patient and should not be shared.
- The OneTouch Verio® Blood Glucose Monitoring 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 OneTouch Verio® Blood Glucose Monitoring System is not to be used for the diagnosis of or screening of diabetes or for neonatal use.
- The OneTouch Verio® Blood Glucose Monitoring System is not for use on critically ill patients, patients in shock, dehydrated patients or hyperosmolar patients.
- Glucose in the blood sample mixes with the enzyme FADGDH in the test strip and a small electric current is produced. The strength of this current changes with the amount of glucose in the blood sample. Your meter measures the current and calculates your blood glucose level. It then displays the blood glucose result and stores it in the meter memory.
