Special Messages The OneTouch® Ultra® Meter displays results between 20 and 600 mg/dL. If your blood glucose test result is lower than 20 mg/dL, lo will appear on the meter display. This may mean severe hypoglycemia (low blood glucose) that requires immediate treatment according to your healthcare professional's recommendations. Although this message could be due to a test error, it is safer to treat first, and then repeat the test. 32 If your blood glucose test result is above 600 mg/dL, h1 will appear on the meter display. This may mean severe hyperglycemia (high blood glucose). You should recheck your blood glucose level. If h1 again appears on the display, call your healthcare professional immediately. When your blood glucose test result is above 240 mg/dL or reads h1, "Ç" will appear on the meter display. This message does not mean that the system detected ketones but that testing with a ketone test strip may be advisable. Consult your healthcare professional about when and how to test for ketones. Example 33 Using the Meter Memory Your OneTouch® Ultra® Meter stores the 150 most recent blood glucose and control solution test results with date and time in its memory. It also provides you with 14- and 30-day averages of your blood glucose test results. If your 14-day and 30-day test result averages are not what you expect, you should not rely on them. Review the test results in memory with these easy steps. STEP 1 Enter the Memory Mode. You may enter the memory mode either with the meter turned off or immediately after completing a test. and the 14-day average will appear with the number of blood glucose tests performed in this period (e. g. 64n means that 64 tests were performed within the period). After three seconds, the 30-day average will appear. (If you are using the meter for the first time, Q indicates there are no test results in memory. ) These averages are calculated from the blood glucose results obtained during the last 14 and 30 calendar days. A h1 result will be included in your averages as 600 mg/dL and a lo result as 20 mg/dL. Results marked as control solution tests will not be included in your averages. If your 14-day and 30-day test result averages are not what you expect, you should not rely on them. 34 STEP 2 Recall Test Results.
