Before You Compare
Perform a control solution test to make sure your meter and test strips are 
working correctly. Wait at least 2 hours after a meal or drink (other than water) 
before doing comparison blood tests. Fasting is essential if venous blood is 
required for the reference analyzer.
When at the Laboratory
The capillary samples for both tests must be taken and tested within 15 
minutes of each other. The sample must be collected with anticoagulant 
appropriate to the laboratory analyzer. The recommended technique should 
be followed. Analysis should be performed following the manufacturer’s
guidelines.
ALWAYS wash hands in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry them thoroughly 
before testing.
ALWAYS use fresh capillary whole blood on meter tests.
