Introduction

Thank you for choosing Rossmax HS200 Blood Glucose Monitoring System to monitor your blood glucose level.
It is designed to be accurate, easy to use, and quick in response time. This User Manual will provide you with all the information you need to operate and maintain Rossmax HS200 Blood Glucose Monitoring System. Please read carefully and completely before use.
Rossmax HS200 Blood Glucose Meter can be used with: Rossmax HS200 Blood Glucose Test Strip
Rossmax HS200 Blood Glucose Monitoring System is for quantitatively measuring glucose (sugar) in whole blood obtained from the fingertip, palm, and forearm; or venous whole blood. It is Only for use outside the body (For in vitro diagnostic use) and intended for self-testing at homes and under professional settings to monitor blood glucose levels.
Test Principle
On each test strip there is a target area containing reaction chemicals. When blood is applied to this area, a chemical reaction takes place, then a transient electrical current is formed. The blood glucose concentration is calculated based on the electrical current detected by the meter, then the result is showed on the display. The test measures glucose from 20 mg/dL (1.1mmol/L) to 600 mg/dL (33.3mmol/L). The Rossmax HS200 Test Strip is calibrated to display the equivalent of plasma glucose values to allow easy comparison of results with laboratory methods.
Caution

  • Do not use the device to diagnose diabetes; it is intended for regular monitoring only.
  • Consult your physician with regard to insulin doses.

Available Alternative Sites Testing
Palm and Forearm

Rossmax HS200 Blood Glucose Monitoring System provides you alternative sites testing (AST). This system provides you to test on the palm and the forearm with the equivalent results to fingertip testing.
Caution:
Physiological differences in the circulation between the finger and other test sites like the forearm and palm may result in differences in blood glucose measurements from the other test sites and your fingertips. Changes in blood glucose may be observed in finger blood samples sooner than blood samples from the forearm and other alternative sites. Rub the alternative test sites about 20 seconds before lancing. If you are testing for hypoglycemia (low blood glucose), or if you suffer from hypoglycemia unawareness, we recommend that you test on your fingertips.
Talk to your doctor to see if alternative site testing is right for you. With a little bit of education, you can give your fingertips a rest and maybe test more often than you do now. For people with diabetes, more frequent testing is a good thing. Just remember: any time you want to be sure of an accurate, up- to-date blood glucose reading, test on your fingertip. We strongly recommend you do.

rossmax HS200 Blood Glucose Monitoring System - FIGURE
15There are limitations for doing AST. Please
consult your healthcare professional
before you do AST.

AST ONLY in the following intervals:

  • In a pre-meal or fasting state (more than 2 hours since the last meal).
