96 9 Detailed information about your systemComparing meter results to laboratory resultsResults obtained from the OneTouch Verio Flex™ Meter and laboratory tests are reported in plasma-equivalent units. However, your meter result may differ from your lab result due to normal variation. A result from your OneTouch Verio Flex™ Meter is considered accurate when it is within 0.83mmol/L of a laboratory method when the glucose concentration is lower than 5.55mmol/L and within 15% of laboratory method when the glucose concentration is 5.55mmol/L or higher.Meter results can be affected by factors that do not affect lab results in the same way. Specific factors that may cause your meter result to vary from your lab result may include:• You have eaten recently. This can cause a result from fingertip testing to be up to 3.9mmol/L higher than a lab test using blood drawn from a vein.1• Your hematocrit is above 60% or below 20%.• You are severely dehydrated.For additional information, refer to the OneTouchVerio® Test Strip Insert.1Sacks, D.B.: "Carbohydrates."
