Nowadays most glucometers (regardless of the brand/laboratory) have a system that allows you to overt all the data stored to the computer, the system usually consists of a cable that connects the glucometer to the computer and a computer program that makes calculations ofaverage values, graphics, ... etc

Accessing a glucometer is relatively easy since at least in Spain they are supplied free mainly in hospitals and in health centers (the business is really in consumables, reactive strips, not in the little machine) but access to the cable and programComputer usually has an economic cost (unless you are lucky and crying on the phone send it home).

I neither have nor have the cable/program, with carrying the values ​​noted in a librettite I think it is enough but if you wantcomputer (such as Excel).

When I debuted I asked the endocrine for the cable and told me that it was difficult to get and that it would better point it in the notebook ... I do not know, the point is that I forgot about the subject.
As I do not have time to aim glycemia in any notebook, what I do is the average that puts in the glucometer in a paper, and I do it every week (it has the average for 7 days, 14 days and 30 days).For me it is very useful.

When I used the Ultrasmart of Lifescan, they sent my cable free of charge, for me it is useful to dump the data to a computer program, it gives you a more complete vision of the treatment in addition to being very comfortable.
Helora calls your meter's laboratory that surely send it to you, especially if you tell them you do many controls.

I use the Opium Xceed as Helora's child.Do you know what phone number you have to call it?It is more useful and takes less time to pass it to the PC than to point the average.Greetings.

ABBOTT COPILOT SYSTEM:

As Prado comments, I am sure that if you call the company's phone and they "cry" a little they send it to you for free ... you do many controls to the child (7-8 a day), you also measure the ketone, it is veryUseful for your visits to the pediatrician .... All that you say and it is feasible that they send it.
But you can always insist on the pediatrician.
Also in patient associations with diabetes they can help you on this issue, they are usually in contact with the commercials in the area.

Mine came with the cable in the box, and not only that.I asked you for a second glucometer to always have an emergency in the car (my bad head when I go on a trip) and they sent it to me without any problem.

Greetings.
