[QUOTE="Administrator, post: 923133, member: 1"] [B][SIZE=5]Problem/ background[/SIZE][/B] The system uses strip-free technology, so users need to follow a specific testing procedure that is different to standard meter and strip systems. We issued an alert in 2014 (MDA/2014/021) but we continue to receive reports of false high readings relating to this device. We continue to work with the manufacturer to further reduce the potential for false high readings.
