Diabetes
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if untrained subjects who have diabetes can operate the Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS) and obtain acceptable glucose results.
Interventions
Untrained subjects with diabetes perform self Blood Glucose (BG) tests with capillary fingerstick blood and AST of the palm and forearm using the Contour TS Blood Glucose Monitoring System. All BG results are compared to a reference laboratory glucose method.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Have a diagnosis of diabetes * Be 18 years of age or older * Be able to speak, read and understand English and understand the Informed Consent document. * Be willing to complete study procedures
Exclusion criteria
* Pregnancy * Infections or skin disorders at the puncture site (at the discretion of the site professional staff). * Hemophilia, bleeding disorder, or clotting problems. Persons taking aspirin (81 mg or 325 mg) daily or Plavix® are not reason for exclusion. * Physical (dexterity), visual, or neurological impairments that would make the person unable to perform testing with the BGM (at the discretion of the site professional staff). * A condition, in the opinion of the Investigator, would put the subject at risk or influence the conduct of the study or interpretation of the results. The reason for exclusion will be documented by the professional staff. * Previously participated in a blood glucose monitoring study using Contour TS system or use the Contour TS for personal use when monitoring blood glucose. * Working for a competitive medical device company or having an immediate family member or someone who is not a family member but is living within the household of someone who works for such a company * Working for a medical laboratory, hospital or other clinical setting that involves training on and clinical use of blood glucose monitors
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Number of Self-Test Fingerstick Blood Glucose Results Within +/- 15mg/dL (<100mg/dL) or Within +/- 15% (>=100mg/dL) of Laboratory Glucose Method | 1 hour | Untrained subjects with diabetes self-test fingerstick blood using the Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). BGMS results are compared with capillary plasma BG results obtained with a Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) Analyzer. YSI Analyzer BG results are used to calculate the number of BGMS results within +/- 15mg/dL (\<100mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) or +/- 15% (\>=100mg/dL YSI capillary plasma). |

|---|---|---|
| Number of Self-Test Alternative Site (Palm) Blood Glucose Results Within +/- 15mg/dL (<100mg/dL) or Within +/- 15% (>=100mg/dL) of Laboratory Glucose Method | 1 hour | Untrained subjects with diabetes self-test Alternative Site (AST) Palm blood using the Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). BGMS AST palm results are compared with capillary plasma BG results obtained with a Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) Analyzer. YSI capillary plasma BG results are used to calculate the number of AST palm BGMS results within +/- 15mg/dL (\<100mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) or +/- 15% (\>=100mg/dL YSI capillary plasma). |
| Number of Self-Test Alternative Site (Forearm) Blood Glucose Results Within +/- 15mg/dL (<100mg/dL) or Within +/- 15% (>=100mg/dL) of Laboratory Glucose Method | 1 hour | Untrained subjects with diabetes self-test Alternative Site (AST) Forearm blood using the Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). BGMS AST forearm results are compared with capillary plasma BG results obtained with a Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) Analyzer. YSI capillary plasma BG results are used to calculate the number of AST forearm BGMS results within +/- 15mg/dL (\<100mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) or +/- 15% (\>=100mg/dL YSI capillary plasma). |
| Number of Subject Responses That 'Agree' or 'Strongly Agree' With Questionnaire Statements | 1 hour | Subjects will complete short questionnaires to provide feedback on the labeling materials and system ease of use. Subjects may respond 'Strongly Agree' 'Agree' 'Neutral' 'Disagree' 'Strongly Disagree'. |
