[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 148371, member: 12578"] If you're asking for a meter (actually the strips) that gives whole blood values you won't find that it the UK. Roche was the last to change and now all UK meters are plasma calibrated. see [url]http://www.diabetes.org.uk/Guide-to-diabetes/Monitoring/Blood_glucose/Meters/[/url] There is only 11-12% difference, this wouldn't result in a reading that could be misconstrued as hypo when you were hyper, a reading of 4mmol on a 'whole blood meter' would be the same as one of 4.5mmol on a plasma one.
