Contour Next Blood Sugar Test Strips 25 Pieces

Contour Next Blood Sugar Test Strips 25 Pieces they are the test strips for the measurement of blood sugar of family tools Contour next. The package contains some 25.

The strip is not interchangeable: it belongs to your instrument like a key to your lock, and it is the first thing to check before buying it. These are the Contour next, and work with glucometers from the same family.

There are two champions admitted, and the difference matters: the fresh capillary whole blood taken from fingertip, which is the case of self-control at home, and the venous blood, which is the case of the test performed next to the patient by a healthcare professional. The measure is quantitative: Returns a value, not a range.

The conservation it is the part that is most often overlooked, and on these strips it is a narrow window: between 0 and 20 degrees. It is a lower temperature than that of many other strips, and means that the bottle should not be left in the car in summer or near a heat source: a poorly stored strip does not stop working, it gives the wrong number, which is worse.

The warnings insist on two practical points. The first is the hands: they are washed with soap and water and dried well before and after the test, because a trace of sugar on the fingertip becomes a high value that does not exist. The second are i children: the strip is small and must be kept out of their reach.

A test strip is useful in case of home self-monitoring of blood sugar, where the value is used to decide what to do for the rest of the day, and it is useful in case of therapy in adjustment, when the doctor asks for a profile of several close measurements to understand how it is going.

The pack of 25 strips it's the short one. The manufacturer is Ascensia Diabetes Care.
