Glucose Meter
A blood glucose meter, also known as a blood glucose meter, is an electronic device that measures blood sugar levels. The blood glucose meter is divided into two types, photoelectric type and electrode type, from the working principle. The electrode type blood glucose meter has a more scientific test principle and the electrode can be built in.

There are two differences in the working principle of the blood glucose meter, one is photoelectric type, and the other is electrode type. Photoelectric blood glucose meter is similar to CD machine. It has a photoelectric head. Its advantage is that the price is relatively cheap. The disadvantage is that the probe is exposed to the air, which is easily contaminated and affects the test result. The error range is about plus or minus 0.8, and the service life is short. It is generally accurate within two years. After two years, it is recommended that the patient who is using the photoelectric type machine go to the repair station for a calibration. . General hospitals have hospital representatives to carry out regular maintenance, while home blood glucose meters have to go to the after-sales service department for bald maintenance.
Blood glucose meter purchase principle
1. For most diabetic patients, simply use a blood glucose meter to accurately measure blood glucose, and then record the results. Therefore, diabetic patients with general economic conditions are still mainly based on practicality. It is more appropriate to choose an economical blood glucose meter. It takes only about 4 yuan per test strip.
2. Patients with good economic conditions, who wish to use the storage and analysis functions of the blood glucose meter to manage the disease, or those who have poor visual acuity and need large-screen display results, and patients who have difficulty in operating and need to directly indicate the operation points of the blood glucose meter. A multi-function blood glucose meter can be selected.
3. suffering from a variety of metabolic abnormalities, need to monitor a variety of indicators at the same time, and patients with more economic conditions, choose a luxury blood glucose meter. It should be pointed out that the blood glucose test strips of various types of blood glucose meters are not universally compatible with each other. Therefore, patients must purchase test papers conforming to the model according to their own blood glucose meter models in order to accurately display the test functions. Therefore, if the economic conditions permit diabetes, it is best to have a blood glucose meter in the home. In particular, gestational diabetes, type 1 diabetes, high blood sugar fluctuations, insulin pumps have been used, intensive insulin therapy is in progress, or patients who are prone to undetectable hypoglycemia are usually present, and blood glucose meters must be available at home for strict blood glucose monitoring. In order to use the blood glucose meter correctly, patients also need to receive training on basic knowledge of diabetes, monitoring significance, how to look at the results of the analysis, and learning insulin injections.
