In a very short time, and after 2 years with type II diabetes, in which everything was already stabilized, the glucometer has given me 3 readings that I did not think they agreed with reality.
I performed other punctures and the values decreased practically halfway.
Asking the glycometer distributors (delivered by the S.S.), they replied that there is no place to check if the glucometer is giving the correct results.
I must indicate that, at least once a week, I use the control system established by the aforementioned glucometer.
The question is: are glucometers distributed that do not need control every so often?Do not distributors have any way to verify that the data is correct?
If at the time of detecting that it was at 211, when in reality there were 103 (more than double), I would have put the fast insulin before dinner, what could have happened at night?
Surely he would have had a hypo of "emergencies"
A system is missing to control the functioning of glucometers from time to time.Unless the problem lies in reactive strips, which would also be, especially serious.
(I do not quote the name of the glucometer expressly, since I think it is extensible to any device that serves as a diabetes measurement.)
