The system is intended for use outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use only). It should be used only for self-testing blood glucose (blood sugar) and only with fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertips, forearm, upper arm, palm, calf or thigh. The system is intended for use in the home and in clinical settings. The system should not be used for the diagnosis of diabetes or for the testing of newborns.

Blood glucose is measured by an electrical current that is produced when a blood samples mixes with the reagent (special chemicals) of the test strip. The electrical current changes with the amount of glucose in the blood sample. The XPRESSGLUCO+

meter measures the strength of the electrical current, calculates your blood glucose level and then displays your result in either milligrams of glucose per deciliter (mg/dL) or millimoles of glucose per liter (mmol/L).
