Test BG Meter Accuracy

Alright, everybody get your meters out and let's do some tests.

First, for each meter you have use one sample of blood from a finger to get a reading from each meter for that blood sample. Line your meters up and put a droplet on each test strip, then record the results.

Second, repeat the process after one or two minutes with another blood sample taken from the same or another finger.

If you only have one meter, then just do two tests on the same meter one or two minutes apart.

My BG was pretty high when I did the test. Here are my results:

Meter........................First sample...Second sample...Difference...Average
One-Touch UltraSmart............226..................248.... ..........22.......237
Freestyle Flash......................256..................23 0..............26.......243
Accu-Chek Compact...............239..................236.... ...........3........237.5
