Test Strips Review
The easy draw glucose test strips offer yet another advantage to this diabetes care monitoring system. The Redi-Code test strips are simple to grip and the flip-top bottle is designed for trouble-free usage. The strips capillary action technology and visual confirmation allows the patient to see the strip and draw the exact amount of blood for a precise reading, requiring only 0.7 microliters of blood. The Advocate Redi-Code test strips tender a quantitative capacity of glucose in whole blood. The blood is drawn into the meter and results are displayed. For accurate results it is best to use each strip immediately following removal from vial, and to utilize the entirety of the open 50-count bottle within a 3-month period.

Control Solution Review
Advocate Control Solution is imitation blood that comes in both a high and a low range. The rationale for the usage of control solution is to check the accuracy of the glucose test strips before the patient uses them. The red cap control solution tests inside a high range of 239-359 mg/dL, in contrast the yellow cap low control solution tests within a range of 57-87 mg/dL. Both can be utilized for the same purpose of assessing the precision of the strip with your glucose meter. Control Solution should be used from the time the bottle of solution is opened. It has an expiration of 3 months. Subsequently new solution, either high or low, is continuously delivered with each quarterly shipment. Control Solution should be used intermittently to ascertain the continued accuracy of both the blood glucose test strips and meter. To determine appropriate readings check the test strip vial for the high/low ranges.
