Description and Use

The ONE TOUCH

BASIC

™

Blood

Glucose Monitoring System is

intended for in vitro diagnostic use.

This statement means that the

system should be used only for

testing purposes and only outside of

the human body. The ONE TOUCH

BASIC Meter and Test Strips are

used for monitoring whole blood

glucose for people who have been

diagnosed with diabetes mellitus.

This device is not to be used for the

diagnosis of diabetes.

The ONE TOUCH BASIC Blood

Glucose Monitoring System meas-

ures the amount of glucose (sugar) in

whole blood. When blood is applied

to the Test Strip, compounds on the

Test Strip react with the blood and a

blue color is formed. The intensity

of the color is then measured and

read by the ONE TOUCH BASIC

Meter.

results. Be careful not to scratch

or damage this coating.

TEST STRIPS. ONE TOUCH

Test

Strips are used to test your blood

glucose (sugar) level. They are

sensitive to moisture and light, so

they come in a moisture-resistant,

light-protected vial or foil package.

Keep the Test Strips sealed in their

original package until you’re ready

to use them. DO NOT store Test

Strips outside of their packaging.

To ensure accurate results, use only

genuine ONE TOUCH Test Strips

made by LifeScan.
