Before You Start Testing - Accu-Chek Aviva Manual Del Propietário

Important Safety Information
Special Information for Caregivers
• Do not use the meter system to measure blood glucose in people who are experiencing cardiovascular
collapse (severe shock) or decreased peripheral blood flow.
• Consult your healthcare professional to determine if it is appropriate for your child to be taught how to use the
meter system or any other medical products.
• Some people with diabetes do not experience symptoms of low blood glucose (hypoglycemia). Others, such
as children or people who are unconscious or have certain disabilities, may not be able to communicate their
symptoms to caregivers. For these reasons, do not change any therapy without first talking to a healthcare
professional.

Before You Start Testing

WarnIng
• Carefully read and follow the instructions in the Owner's Booklet and package inserts for the test strips and
control solution. It is very important to follow the instructions in order to avoid an incorrect test result that
leads to improper therapy.
• Inspect the test strip container before using the test strips for the first time. If you see any damage to the
container cap or if anything prevents the cap from closing properly, do not use the test strips. Contact the
ACCU‑CHEK Customer Care Service Center. Damaged test strips can cause inaccurate results, which could
lead to improper therapy.
• The meter, test strips, and control solution are only for use outside the body (in vitro). Do not eat the test
strips. Do not swallow or inject the control solution or use the control solution for any purpose other than
testing the ACCU‑CHEK Aviva Plus system.
nOTE
• Set the time and date on the meter before you begin testing.
• Your system has been calibrated to deliver plasma‑like values for easier comparison to lab results.
