    measure your blood glucose

    for measuring blood glucose with the Portable Diabetes Assistant (PDA) of the Wellion MICRO-PUMP

     

    The Wellion MICRO blood glucose test strips are used with the Wellion MICRO-PUMP PDA (Portable Diabetes Assistant) to measure blood glucose levels in fresh capillary whole blood. They are suitable for home use and for use by healthcare professionals.


    Handling

     

    1. When the display is on, insert a Wellion MICRO test strip and the screen will prompt you to apply blood.

    2. Press the lancing device (with a fresh lancet) to the side of your fingertip and press the release button to lance and collect the drop of blood.

    3. Now hold the tip of the test strip at a slight angle into the blood sample as indicated on the screen. The test strip will draw in the blood like a straw.

    4. When enough blood has been applied, the screen counts down for 5 seconds and after a few seconds the measurement result is displayed on the screen.

     

    Test result area

    Displays the blood glucose test result with the correct unit of measurement and time/date. The scale above the reading indicates whether the result falls within the target range or not. If the result is out of range, the bar is yellow. Set your individual target range in consultation with your healthcare professional.

     

     

     

    User Actions

    Includes blood glucose result marker, invalid test selection, and "bolus calculator" button.

    • Result markers: Use this area to mark your results before/after exercise or before/after eating. You can use these markers to divide your results into different categories when calculating averages.

    • Invalid test: If this checkbox is selected, the measurement will be recorded in the history, but will not be used to calculate averages.

    • Bolus calculator: If the bolus calculator is activated in the settings menu, the button turns green after a blood glucose value is recorded.

     

    After the test is complete, press the test strip eject button to eject the test strip. Ejecting the test strip or pressing the Back button will return you to the last screen. Your blood glucose level is automatically recorded in memory when you exit the blood glucose test function.

     

    Tip: You can also enter your blood glucose value manually. This is especially useful if you are using a separate blood glucose meter. The entry is saved in your history and can be used with the bolus calculator.
