Description
Accu-Chek Guide is a blood glucose monitoring system indicated for people with diabetes for home self-monitoring and for in vitro diagnostic use by healthcare professionals in a clinical setting.
The Accu-Chek Guide system is a unique solution, designed to meet the diverse needs of people with diabetes and healthcare providers. The system's features, such as the patented oval anti-spill vial and new test strips with a wide blood sample application area, represent intelligent solutions that simplify blood glucose testing.
The system offers excellent accuracy and precision. Accu-Chek Guide test strips have undergone a wide variety of tests, including studies conducted at external sites and in-depth internal testing. The study results show that the test strips provide accurate and reliable measurements under various conditions.

Accu-Chek Guide strips boast three main features:
- Oval anti-spill vial: the innovative design of the strip container vial prevents spilling and facilitates the removal of only one strip at a time. Its oval shape makes it pocket-friendly and the protruding cap is easy to open.
- Wide blood sample application area: the new Accu-Chek Guide test strips allow a small blood sample to be applied anywhere on the wide yellow-highlighted tip, intuitively indicated by red blood drops drawn near the area.
- Excellent accuracy (10/10): the Accu-Chek Guide system complies with ISO 15197:2013/EN ISO 15197:2015 and offers accuracy superior to the required standards, ensuring reliable results.

System accuracy:
1. System accuracy results for glucose concentrations below 100 mg/dl (below 5.55 mmol/l):
- within ±5 mg/dl (within ±0.28 mmol/l): 175/186 (94.1%);
- within ±10 mg/dl (within ±0.56 mmol/l): 186/186 (100%);
- within ±15 mg/dl (within ±0.83 mmol/l): 186/186 (100%).

2. System accuracy results for glucose concentrations equal to or above 100 mg/dl (equal to or above 5.55 mmol/l):
- within ±5 mg/dl: 296/414 (71.5%);
- within ±10 mg/dl: 404/414 (97.6%);
- within ±15 mg/dl: 413/414 (99.8%);

3. System accuracy results for glucose concentrations between 14 mg/ml (0.78 mmol/l) and 578 mg/ml (32.1 mmol/l):
- within ±15 mg/dl or within ±15% (within ±0.83 mmol/l or within ±15%): 599/600 (99.8%).

Components
Reagent composition:
Mediator 6.6%;
FAD-GDH enzyme 21.3%;
Buffer 22.6%;
Stabilizer 0.3%;
Non-reactive component 49.2%;

Directions for use
Carefully read the test strip leaflet.
Place the sample on the aspiration area of the strip, highlighted in yellow. Wait approximately 4 seconds for the measurement cycle to complete.
The yellow reactive zone on the strip visually confirms the correct sample application.

Warnings
Lipemic samples (triglycerides) >1800 mg/dL (>20.3 mmol/L) may produce elevated glucose results.
Do not use this system if you are receiving an intravenous ascorbic acid infusion.
Do not use this system during a xylose absorption test.

Storage
Store the strips at a temperature between 4°C and 30°C.
The test strips can be used until the expiration date indicated on the package.
This applies to test strips in a new and intact vial, as well as to test strips in an already opened vial.

Format
Pack of 25 strips.
