  • Hello viewers,
    This episode is only to bring into limelight that there are always variations between glucometers and within the same glucometers also.
    I have pricked twice and used the capillary blood, just for demonstration purpose.
    The ideal way of comparison would be to use venous blood drops on al glucometers simultaneously.
    This episode was also intended to give a demo of how to use a glucometer.
    Thank you.

    There is a lot of good information in that video, thank you. The one we all expected is not buy A, B or C they are the best. But what I found really helpful is that someone says that a) the strips need to be fresh when the container has been opened (3 months is best) humidity, oxygen, and heat are bad for precision. The OneTouch select is better in counties with high temperatures and humidity as those strips are more stable, others can go for the Ultra variant which has better electronic features but different strips. The Accu-Chek Guide has the same plasma-calibrated strips as other modern Glucometers. It is easy and stable and has much fewer variants. The standards allow +/- 10% but the new good ones have half the range and are more precise. What has not been taken into account is that some Glucometers do not recalibrate for temperature, so they are fine with 20-24 degree Celsius, but not with lower or higher temperatures, as the measure has to be compensated. What I missed was the Coutour Next which shows precision in many hospitals as also the Glucocheck Gold also switched to plasma calibration. Most modern Glucometers have Bluetooth connectivity but not all have good software.

    If you exclude the accucheck reading which was obviously a bad reading then the average error for all of the remaining meters is only1% and the error has one standard deviation of 6.9 mg/dl. I’d say that’s pretty accurate to be honest.

      2. Ideally once , but if it's being used by the same person may be upto 10 pricks you can use. More the number of times more will be the pain.
      3. Ideally within in a month but can be used upto 3 months safely. All depends on how many times it's opened and exposure to external atmosphere.
      Thanks for the different variety of questions asked.

    Now decided, next time to carry with us to at least 2 meters to Pathological Lab during testing of blood & then retest on our meters to compare the correctness. That should dispel our confusion. Hope so. Once again profound thanks for enlightening us.

      That's the conclusion.
      This is not a marketing video to project the best one.
      Unfortunately there is no ranking for glucometers like other electronic gadgets.

National Diagnostics (well known Lab in Ludhiana) and reading are as below:-
    Dr. Lal Path Labs- 88.2
    National Diagnostics - 97
    Contour One Plus - 91
    Contour Plus One seems pretty much accurate.

      I guess you mean Contour plus and contour plus one.
      Yes they both are similarly accurate and use same strips for operation. The glucometer shown here is contour plus one which has bluetooth while contour plus lacks that. Rest is same.

    This is an additional info for the readers.
    The glucometer has different normal values they are not all the same.. The normal values depends on the calibration of the machine. You should read and check the manual included in the product. Now if you already check and they have the same normal values then you can compare them. But if you compare them without checking the normal values of each glucometer then it is useless. In RBS the normal value of Accucheck active is 60 to 180. And in FBS is 70 to 110.
    And for more info the back of the strip of Accucheck active there is circle there and it changes color depending on the result. It is another way or manual way of checking your result. It's like double check. After the glucometer read the result. Remove the strip and look at the back and compare the color in the strips back to the color printed in the strips container. It's like urinalysis strip after it was dip in the urine you will compare the color to the container.. looking for the PH, glucose in the urine, specific gravity and etc. It has two way in checking the result. Through machine and through strip. That's why I like Accucheck active. And also the last one is also nice..like it..

    Great video other than the finger squeezing. I am always amazed at how many Drs or Medical Professionals will squeeze the finger to get an ample blood draw. Ample does not mean adequate. Squeezing the fingers DURING a blood draw is not a good method to produce a sample & can cause Blood Sugar Readings to be inadequate. Our blood cells are very delicate and squeezing the finger can cause hemolysis, potentially causing unwanted components inside the blood cell to be released into the blood sample, giving an inaccurate reading. Very light squeezing is acceptable to most Drs, the problem with this is that the term "light" is subjective and typically ignored by the common person performing BS readings at home. Most people's mood, schedule, and lack of circulation generally creates a greater sense of urgency in the user and thus, less awareness is on the actual pressure due to the desire the get the task done. It is better not to squeeze at all.
    Many will say, it's hard just to get one drop if I don't squeeze. I have to squeeze my finger or nothing will come out. I used to think the same thing, and had the same problem, until I started focusing on hydration.
    #1 Reason for poor circulation is dehydration. Hydration is not merely drinking water, that's only part of it, but proper electrolyte balance as well. #2 Reason for poor circulation is lack of movement.
    Did you know that drink 8 ozs to 16 ozs of water 4 to 5 minutes before taking your blood sample will increase your blood flow? Additionally, warming the hands with warm water (not too hot, and of course do not have it uncomfortably hot or burning, but as hot as you can stand it), for about 4 minutes, (do NOT use soap), then thoroughly drying the hands, before initiating a sample will also create better blood flow. Massaging the hands and each of your fingers while warming them under the water really helps to cut down on disappointments of seeing little to no blood after lancing (initiating a blood draw). Using an adequate lancet size and pricking the finger (the least used hand, Middle Finger or Ring Finger) in an optimal place also ensures greater blood flow.
    Do NOT prick the tips of fingers, too many nerve endings. Aim for the side of tip.
    Whatever glucometer you choose, use the readings that you receive from that monitor as your baseline to accuracy. If you use different meters, it will be more difficult to pinpoint where you actually land because of the different ranges and & margin errors that each meter uses.
    I hope this helps someone to have a better experience and more accurate results. Stay Safe and Best of Health to YOU!

      Also something to add to your comment the doctor made a mistake of leaving the blood in one finger, and using that blood for multiple test, while the ambient is contaminated already, that blood will contaminated eventually.
      He should have prick differents fingers for different glucometers and not using one Blood at the finger exposed in the air for many time....

    Much awaited test. Congratulations! But Dr I see a flaw in this. Almost the same blood on your finger is sipped in by so many test strips in quick succession. In the process the enzyme/reagent on the tip of the test strips would have made some reactive changes in the blood on the finger as well. And this can be one of the reasons of variation in the results from meter to meter. To rule out this, it would have been better to give fresh blood to each test strip / meter. OneTouch got the best blood, others got contaminated blood. Your nurse could have put one drop of blood on a separate clean glass slide for each meter from the sample that was sent for lab test. This is my observation as a layman. Experts may comment.
