Accuracy and User Performance of a New Blood Glucose Monitoring System.

Introduction: Self-monitoring of blood glucose (BG) is important in diabetes management, allowing people with diabetes (PWD) to assess responses to diabetes therapy and to inform if they are attaining their glycemic targets. This study assessed the accuracy and user performance (UP) of a new blood glucose monitoring system (BGMS), CONTOUR®PLUS ELITE, according to International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 15197:2013 criteria and also more stringent criteria.

Methods: In laboratory Study 1, capillary fingertip blood samples from 100 PWD were evaluated using the new BGMS.
