What are blood glucose meters and why are they important?

A blood glucose meter is an essential medical device for accurately measuring blood sugar levels and is crucial for diabetes management. Blood glucose meters are among the medical devices that measure the glucose content, i.e., the blood sugar content in the blood. They are important for monitoring and managing diabetes patients, as they allow those affected to regularly check their blood sugar levels and take appropriate action to avoid health complications. Accurate and continuous monitoring with a blood glucose meter helps to keep blood sugar levels in the correct range. This can prevent long-term serious consequences such as cardiovascular diseases, kidney damage, and nerve damage.

Who are blood glucose meters suitable for?

Blood glucose meters are especially important for people who develop type 1 and type 2 diabetes. But also for groups of people who want to monitor their risk of diabetes. People with prediabetes or a family history that poses an increased risk of developing diabetes.

How do blood glucose meters work?

What errors can occur during measurement?

Various errors can occur during blood glucose measurement with a blood glucose meter, resulting in an incorrect result. These steps can reduce faulty measurements:

  • Clean and disinfect the puncture site beforehand, for example, with practical wipes from Kodan®.

  • Check the expiration date of the test strips, as well as proper storage.
  • Thoroughly wash hands and disinfect the puncture site.
