Independent comparison of all glucometers should be carried out as the proportional bias, especially in case of high blood glucose levels, can affect patient care. Notably, Freestyle Optium Neo showed the minimal mean bias (-0.4%) in contrast to Contour Next One that showed the highest proportional bias (6.1%).

Moreover, our study confirmed that Accu-Check, OneTouch, and FreeStyle Optium Neo meters were significantly useful predictors of venous blood glucose. The ease of use and high accuracy of the Bayer Contour Next EZ glucose meter makes it a good choice for new diabetes patients. In the low glucose range, CP had a lower MARD than all BGMSs, which was statistically significant except for ACP.
#CONTOUR NEXT ONE ACCURACY PLUS#
Although, no significant difference was found between the mean venous blood glucose and the mean of other glucometer readings, a highly significant positive correlation was found between laboratory measurements and glucometer readings. CONTOUR PLUS had a statistically significantly lower MARD than all BGMSs across the overall tested range (27460 mg/dL 1.525.5 mmol/L) and in the high glucose range.

Many customers state that the device is high quality and easy to use. Statistical analysis was carried out and the readings were expressed as mean and standard deviation.Īll glucometer readings correlated well with the laboratory measurements however, the venous glucose level readings showed a slight difference, especially in case of higher blood glucose levels. The Contour Next One device on Amazon has an average customer rating of 4.7 out of 5 stars. Participants were randomly selected for measuring fasting blood glucose levels to eliminate any factors that could affect measurements by the glucometers and glucose hexokinase method (reference method). The five commercially available glucometers - Accu-Chek (Roche Diagnostics GmbH, Mannheim, Ger-many), OneTouch (LifeScan Inc, USA), Freestyle Optium Neo (Abbott Diabetes Care Inc, USA), Contour Next, and Contour Next One (Ascensia Diabetes Care Inc. This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of commonly used glucometers by comparing their readings with those of the laboratory reference method. Recently, various glucometers have been developed.

Self-monitoring of blood glucose using point-of-care glucometers is a critical tool in diabetic care.
