    Author: Spencer LN.
    Journal: Diabetes Educ; 1995; 21(3):219-22. PubMed ID: 7758390.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of the study was to identify and describe color vision testing of healthcare personnel who do glucose monitoring within a hospital. The subjects were 359 members of a nursing staff. Data were collected from nurses participating in a certification program for blood glucose monitoring. The lshihara plates were used to screen for a color vision deficiency. The results offered no evidence that screening of staff provided any benefit for patient care.
