Accu-Chek Active provides effective blood glucose measurement and monitoring. The meter requires not more than 5 seconds to measure and deliver results that correlate with a lab test in an excellent way. Only 1-2 micro-litre (very small drop) of blood is required to run a blood glucose test.
Out-of-meter dosing: Applying blood onto a test strip outside the meter helps to minimize the risk of contamination (as in hospital settings).
Under-dosing detection: The meter signals the application of too little blood to the test strip and enables re-dosing in the meter within 5 seconds.
Visual double check: The visual double-check option gives you a back-up on your blood glucose values. Just compare the colour in the test strip control window with the colors on the vial.
Automatic coding: The code chip allows for expired test strip alerts.
