[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2103277, member: 493719"] Ahh, then that's of interest [USER=160246]@Winnie53[/USER] those guys are way smarter then me, so i'll go with their opinion. And while it probably (guessing) can never be as accurate as an actual blood type test, like many of the things i have learned with my T2D since being welcomed here, it's not necessary to have information to the nth degree, for many patients.(well for me) like the Meter reading (code free) or my trackers, ( one Mi fit 3 excellent does my steps, heart rate but not BP..i have another cheaper one from china that while not as good in my opinion as the Mi Fit 3, ) BUT the cheapey DOES do my SPO2 and more importantly at the moment my BP. Now the Mi fit was a close to spot on when i had my heart check done at hospital (god knows what that machine costs ) my chinese cheapey tracker matches it almost to the number, it's a little less then my BP cuff, (but it is wrist worn and the web does say that's not as accurate)..but it all just gives me a trend to follow and spot if something is improving or amiss. The spo2 seems to match my 'feeling' i have asthma and i'm pretty much in tune with my breathing, if that makes sense. ( i must, i keep promising myself, find a decent brand tracker that does the BP. as well..so many seem to fail at the review level "too easily break", "frozen screens" "poor customer service," etc... to make me want to make the investment..if only the Mi fit offered it, i'd snap it up ) so for my uses they all, including the IR checker offer me the 'trend' to see if things are going well. So far pleased with the delivery of Data, from so many sources.. Blood test at docs, tracker Now /day / week / month scales; smart ones. and now insulin resistance checker ..:D (i've become a Data geek, but i probably always was.) The IR was a Nice to add to my list. So hoping what [USER=480869]@HSSS[/USER], finds isn't too disparaging of it. but like i say, nice to know the 'Mechanics' of how it works seems to be supported by such doyens of the Diabetic debate. Kind regards [USER=160246]@Winnie53[/USER] [/QUOTE]
