TEST PRINCIPLE
Testing with the iHealth system is based on the measurement of electrical currents generated by
the reaction of glucose with the reagent of the test strip. The iHealth system measures the
current and converts it to the corresponding blood glucose level. The strength of the current
produced by the reaction depends on the amount of glucose in the blood sample.
IMPORTANT TEST INFORMATION
• Severe dehydration or excessive water loss may cause inaccurate results. If you believe you are
suffering from severe dehydration, consult your healthcare professional immediately.
• Inaccurate results may occur in severely hypotensive individuals or patients who are in shock.
Test results that are lower than actual values may occur in individuals who are in a hyperglyce-
mic-hyperosmolar state, with or without ketosis. Please consult your healthcare professional
before use.
• If your blood glucose results are lower or higher than usual, and you do not have symptoms of
illness, first repeat the test. If you have symptoms or continue to get results that are higher or
lower than usual, follow the treatment advice of your healthcare professional.
• If you are experiencing symptoms that are inconsistent with your blood glucose test, and you
have followed all of the instructions provided in this Owner’s Manual, contact your healthcare
professional immediately.
• Use only fresh whole blood samples to test your blood glucose.
• Do not use test strips that are expired or appear to be damaged as they may return inaccurate
results.
• Always use care when handling the iHealth Align Glucose Meter. Dropping or throwing the
meter may cause damage.
• Don't expose the iHealth Align Glucose Meter, test strips, or control solution to extreme
conditions such as high humidity, heat, freezing cold, or dust.
• The lancing device is for self-use only. Do not share or re-use lancets. Please refer to the
Lancing Device Manual for the detailed procedure.
