Proven AccuracyAll meters in the CONTOUR®NEXT portfolio meet the ISO* 15197: 2013 minimum accuracy requirements.

Parkes-Consensus Error Grid Analyses demonstrated excellent agreement between BGMS and reference results for all systems!1

The ISO standard requires 95% of results to fall within ±15 mg/dL of a laboratory reference value for blood glucose concentrations <100 mg/dL and within ±15% of a laboratory reference value for blood glucose concentrations ≥100 mg/dL AND 99% of individual glucose measured values fall within zones A and B of the Consensus Error Grid2

Clinical study findings showed the CONTOUR®NEXT platform of BGMSs (Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems) utilizing the CONTOUR®NEXT test strip were proven accurate both in the laboratory and in the hands of people with diabetes who were naive to the system in both the lower (<100 mg/dL) and higher (≥100 mg/dL) glucose ranges1
