The Accu-Chek Guide Me system
EN ISO 15197:2015 standards require today’s blood glucose meters to be
accurate at 15/15.1 That’s a high standard, but what does it mean?
At this standard, 95% of results fall within ± 0.83 mmol/L when < 5.55 mmol/L
or ± 15% when 5.55 mmol/L.1
The Accu-Chek Guide Me system features 10/10 accuracy 2
Our aim? A tighter target
We made it our goal to design a next-generation Accu-Chek meter that would
be even more accurate. The Accu-Chek Guide Me system delivers 10/10 accuracy.2
ACCURACY MATTERS
Accurate blood glucose results are essential for both reliable monitoring and optimal therapy decisions.3,4
As glucose result error rate is reduced, so is the likelihood of missing
hypoglycaemic events5
In a computer-simulated experiment 100 simulated “adults” with type 1 diabetes
showed the relationship between actual glucose result and permitted blood
glucose meter error.5
Probability of missing a hypo event when true blood glucose value = 3.33
mmol/L5
At 20/20 accuracy, up to 10 of 100 hypoglycaemic events may be missed
At 15/15 accuracy, up to 4 of 100 hypoglycaemic events may be missed
With 10/10 accuracy2, the risk of missing a hypoglycaemic event drops to 1 in
100
