Title: [Self-control of blood sugar with a new blood sugar test strip (author's transl)]. Author: Unger H, Willms B. Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 1980 Apr 18; 105(16):566-70. PubMed ID: 7363836. Abstract: Blood sugar self-control was assessed in 20 in-patients using a new blood sugar test strip, Haemo-Glukotest 20--800. Comparative estimations of 445 strip tests with values obtained by the hexokinase method showed good correlations particularly in the low range below the renal threshold. Nearly 70% of measurements were assessed correctly in this range. Mean deviations of test strip results from the corresponding laboratory value were 0.61 to 0.89 mmol/l (11--16 mg/dl). Haemo-Glukotest 20--800 is thus well suited for blood glucose self-control particularly in the range below the renal threshold. In a survey most patients estimated the importance of blood sugar to be more than that of urinary sugar.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
