The On Call® Plus Blood Glucose Test Strips are thin strips with a chemical reagent
system. They work with the On Call® Plus Blood Glucose Meter to measure the glucose
concentration in whole blood. Blood is applied to the end tip of the test strip. The blood is
then automatically absorbed into the reaction cell. The reaction takes place in the reaction
cell. A transient electrical current is formed during the reaction which is detected by the
meter. The blood glucose concentration is then calculated based on the electrical current.
The result is then shown on the meter display. The meters are calibrated to display plasma
equivalent results.
For in vitro diagnostic use. Test strips are only to be used outside the body for testing
purposes, for the quantitative measurement of glucose in capillary whole blood from the
finger, forearm and palm, by people with diabetes at home and by healthcare professionals
as an aid in monitoring the effectiveness of diabetes control programs.
