Introduction
What it is:
The Ascensia ELITE™ Diabetes Care System is a blood glucose monitoring
system. The system is made up of the Ascensia ELITE™ Meter, Test Strip,
and Code Strip. For quality control of the system, the Ascensia ELITE™
Check Strip and Normal, Low and High Controls are also available.
How it works:
The Ascensia ELITE blood glucose testing process is based on an electrode sensor
technology. Capillary action at the end of the Test Strip draws a small amount
of blood into the reaction chamber and a reading is displayed in 30 seconds.
No timing, wiping or blotting is required.
What is new and different:
Ascensia ELITE™ Test Strips are calibrated to give plasma/serum equivalent
glucose results. Plasma/serum results are used by doctors and laboratories as
the most accurate method for reading blood glucose levels. The Ascensia ELITE
System provides you with readings that correspond directly to those of your
doctor or clinic. Compare Ascensia ELITE Test Strip results only to systems which
use a plasma/serum calibration.
