samples mixes with the reagent (special chemicals) of the test strip. The electrical
current changes with the amount of glucose in the blood sample. The Medicare System-
LiS meter measures the strength of the electrical current, calculates your blood glucose
level and then displays your result in either milligrams of glucose per deciliter (mg/dL) or
millimoles of glucose per liter (mmol/L).
Caution
1. The user should not take any decision of medical relevance without first consulting
his or her medical practitioner.
2. Call your doctor immediately if you experience symptoms that are not consistent with
your blood glucose test results.
3. High altitudes above than 3,402 meter (11,161 ft) may affect the test results.
4. Temperatures outside the range of 5°C to 45°C (41°F to 113°F) may affect the test
results. Do not test beyond of temperature range.
IMPORTANT HEALTH-RELATED INFORMATION
1. Apply only capillary whole blood sample to test your blood glucose. Applying other
substances or plasma, serum will cause wrong results.
2. Severe dehydration and excessive water loss may cause false low results. If
you believe you are suffering from severe dehydration, consult your healthcare
professional immediately.
3. Test results below 60 mg/dL (3.3 mmol/L)*1 indicates low blood glucose
(hypoglycemia). Test results greater than 240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L)*2 indicates high
blood glucose (hyperglycemia).If your results are below 60 mg/dL (3.3 mmol/L) or
above 240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L), repeat the test, and if the results are still below
60 mg/dL (3.3 mmol/L) or above 240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L), consult your healthcare
professional immediately.

Всех приветствую!
В последнее время я стала очень заботиться о своем здоровье. Раньше я никогда не интересовала глюкоза. А как начались проблемы, то стала очень часто интересоваться этим и стала очень часто бегать по больницам для того, чтобы измерить уровень глюкозу. И порой я так уставала бегать по больницам и мне в голову пришло приобрести глюкометр. Я взяла себе самый бюджетный глюкометр MediCare BG-101.
Глюкометр MediCare BG-101
Общие характеристики
- Тип прибора — глюкометр
- Время теста — 6 с
- Объем крови на одно измерение — 3 мкл
- Место приобретения — интернет-магазин OZON

- Назначение — для измерения уровня глюкозы
О приборе
Система измерения уровня глюкозы в крови Медикеа-Лис (MediCare – Lis) использует новейшие технологии, чтобы обеспечить Вам легкое и удобное измерение. Для проведения измерения и получения результата , требуется , всего 0,3 мкл крови и 6 секунд времени.
То есть этот прибор направлен исключительно на измерение глюкозы в крови. Кстати, меня очень удивило, что для определения результата необходимо всего 6 секунд, для меня это очень быстро.
О внешнем виде

Что я жду от глюкометра?
- Точного измерения глюкозы в крови
- Отсутствие ошибок
- Быстрый результат
- Долгое использование
- Удобство использования
Как я использую данный глюкометр?
- Перед непосредственным использованием глюкометра я мою руки с мылом. Затем я очень хорошо высушиваю руки и согреваю пальцы для прилива крови.
- После этого я извлекаю тест-полоску из упаковки (обязательно новую) и помещаю эту полоску в разъем глюкометра. После этого прибор сам включается. Хочу отметить, когда начинает мигать символ, то можно начинать работу.
- Затем я беру шприц и выбираю место прокола и нажимаю кнопку спуска ланцета.
- Потом я аккуратно массирую палец (для того, чтобы получить достаточное количество крови)
- Наношу кровь на тест полоску. Результат показывается через 6 секунд.
- На приборе спустя 6 секунд появляется результат.
- После всей процедуры я извлекаю тест-полоску из прибора (чтобы выключить его)
- И, конечно же, утилизирую использованный ланцет.
Уход за прибором, условия хранения и срок службы системы
Мои впечатления от использования
Данный глюкометр показывает результат действительно через 6 секунд после использования. Показывает все с точностью. Чтобы убедиться в точности результата я сначала проверяла в больнице а затем с помощью этого средства и все, конечно же, совпало.
Также мне понравилось удобное использование. Пользоваться этим прибором действительно очень даже удобно, не составляет никакой проблемы.
Вот только само прокалывание для меня было очень больно. Я тот человек, который резко на это реагирует. В первые разы у меня очень сильно кружилась голова и темнело в глазах (это все из-за того, что я пользовалась этим средством на голодный желудок). Даже в больницах у меня частенько был обморок после взятия крови.
А еще у этого глюкометра очень хорошая память, результат держится очень долго. Мне это очень понравилось. Можно сравнивать прежние результаты с нынешними.
Достоинства
- Быстрый результат
- Очень бюджетная цена
- Хорошая и долгая память
- Удобно брать с собой
Недостатки
- Может быть обморок
- Не всем легко будет пользоваться
Вывод
Данный глюкометр влюбил меня с первого применения! Благодаря этому глюкометру я могу узнавать свой результат в домашних результатах. Этот прибор очень экономит время и деньги. Так бы мне пришлось постоянно ездить в больницу и платить деньги за измерение глюкозы. Я считаю, что этот глюкометр самый лучший. У него хорошая память, а также очень бюджетная стоимость. Так что обязательно рекомендую!

.
Control Solution Testing
If your Medicare control solution did not come with an Medicare control solution
Instruction, the following information shall take the place of the instruction.
Medicare control solutions contain a pre-set amount of glucose that reacts with
OKmeter test strips. By testing your control solution and comparing the test results
with the expected range printed on the test strip vial label, you can make sure that the
meter and the test strips are working properly together as a system and that you are
performing the test correctly.
Why perform a control solution test?
1. To ensure that your meter and test strip are working properly together.
2. To allow you to practice testing without using your own blood.
When should the control solution test be performed?
1. Whenever you suspect that the meter or test strips are not working properly.
2. When your blood glucose test results are not consistent with how you feel, or
when you think your results are not accurate.
3. When test strips are exposed to extreme environmental conditions.
4. If you drop the meter.
5. After changing the battery.
Important Control Solution Information
1. Check the expiration date on the control solution bottle. Do not use if expired.
2. Control solution, meter, and test strips should come to room temperature (68-
77 ºF/20-25ºC) before testing.
3. Shake the bottle before use, discard the first drop of control solution after
squeezing, wipes off the dispenser tip to avoid contaminations. These steps
ensure you will get a good sample and an accurate result.
4. Record the discard date on the bottle when you open a new bottle of control
solution.
NOTE : 1. There are two levels of control solution (normal and high) available to purchase.
Please contact with your local distributor when required.
2. The control solution range printed on the test strip vial is for Medicare control solution
only. It is used to test meter and strip performance. It is not recommended range for
your blood glucose level.
Composition:
1. D-Glucose
5. Disodium EDTA
2. Polyvinyl acetate (aqueous emulsion)
6. Food Pigment Red No.6
3. Fumed silica
7. Antifoaming agent
4. Sodium Benzoate
(Polyethylene Glycol 4000)
