Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that untrained subjects who have diabetes can operate the Investigational Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS) and obtain valid glucose results.

Interventions

DEVICECONTOUR® PLUS Investigational BG Monitoring System

Untrained subjects with diabetes perform self Blood Glucose (BG) tests with capillary fingerstick and palm blood using the CONTOUR® PLUS Investigational BG Monitoring System. Study staff test subject venous blood. All Blood Glucose (BG) results are compared to a reference laboratory glucose method.

Percent of Self-Test Fingerstick Blood Glucose Results Within +/- 15mg/dL (<75mg/dL) or Within +/- 20% (>=75mg/dL) of Laboratory Glucose Method

Untrained subjects with diabetes self-test fingerstick blood using an investigational Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). BGMS results are compared with capillary plasma BG results obtained with a Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) Analyzer. BG results are used to calculate the number of BGMS results within +/- 15mg/dL (\<75mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) or +/- 20% (\>=75mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) of the reference method results.

Time frame: 1 hour

Population: 216 (220-4) blood test results were analyzed. Blood data for 2 subjects were not evaluable because time, defined in protocol, was exceeded between meter test and blood sample preparation for reference method. No fingerstick results were obtained for 2 subjects.
