Accuracy of Meter Measurements

FAQ: Can two (2) blood glucose meters produce
different readings that are from the same blood
sample? Does this make one reading more
accurate than the other?
Answer: Yes, different meters can produce
different readings using the same blood
sample.
No, this does not necessarily mean that
one result is more accurate than the
other.
The reasons for this are as follows:
1. The FDA recognized standard for glucose
meter accuracy is ISO 15197: In Vitro
Diagnostic Test Systems Requirements
for Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems for
Self Testing in Managing Diabetes Mellitus.
This standard sets accuracy requirements
that manufacturers must meet before being
approved by the FDA to market their
glucose meters.
