Wellion LEONARDO blood glucose test strips
- blood glucose teststrips for blood glucose measurement with Wellion LEONARDO meters
- a reliable blood sugar value with only a small drop of blood
Description
Your blood sugar reading in seconds from just a single drop of blood
The Wellion LEONARDO blood glucose test strips are used with the Wellion LEONARDO meters (Wellion LEONARDO GLU/KET and Wellion LEONARDO compact) to measure blood glucose levels in fresh capillary whole blood.
The Wellion LEONARDO meters are perfectly suited for home use as well as for use by healthcare professionals.
Handling
- Take a Wellion LEONARDO blood glucose test strip from the test strip container and close it immediately. Insert the test strip to turn on the meter. The display shows the “Glu” symbol, the flashing blood drop symbol, and the test strip symbol.
- Press the lancing device (with a fresh lancet) laterally against your fingertip and press the release button to prick and obtain the blood drop.
- Now hold the tip of the test strip at a slight angle into the blood sample. The test strip sucks the blood like a straw. The meter beeps to let you know when there is enough blood for the test. The display shows the countdown, and after 5 seconds the result is shown on the display.
Useful tips
- Do not use expired test strips. Check the expiration date printed on the test strip container and package.
- Close the test strip vial IMMEDIATELY after removing a test strip to protect the remaining test strips from moisture.
- Use test strips immediately after removing them from the container.
- Do not use wet or damaged test strips.
- Avoid direct sunlight and heat. Store the test strips in a dry, cool environment (not in the bathroom).
- Write the opening date on the test strip vial label. Dispose of the remaining test strips 6 months after they are first opened.
- Dispose of the used test strip and the used lancet immediately after measurement.
These Wellion blood glucose test strips contain glucose oxidase in the reaction zone, an enzyme that reacts specifically with glucose. This reaction generates an electric current, which is converted by the meter into the corresponding blood glucose reading and displayed on the screen.
