Thanks
@daddys1 very interesting! I found the explanation of the chart, which says:
Basically, the 20 meters were all tested 10 times against a laboratory verified sample of 6.5mmol/l. The results above show that only 3 meters achieved a more accurate result (shown by the "bias" column) over the 10 tests but of these 3, only 1 meter achieved a more consistently accurate result (shown by the variance figures in the "VK%" column). In other words, of the 3 meters that had a more accurate result over the 10 tests, 2 of them had much greater variation of results (i.e. less consistency).
What these results essentially show is that the only meter that achieved more consistently accurate results than the SD Codefree Blood Glucose Meter was the Finetest system - a unit which, as far as we are aware, is not available to the general public and is only available to medical professionals.
These results also show that whilst the SD Codefree Meter will consistently give you an accurate result, some better known brands such as the Freestyle Lite and the Bayer Contour will consistently give you readings which are much lower than your true blood glucose level.
So it seems the Codefree is very good, accurate and consistent. I bet they didn't use batch 44 strips during the experiment! LOL
