KeyNote Control Solution
The Key Note Control Solution simulates a blood test so you can check your test strips. Each Control Solution contains a known amount of glucose. If the control result is within an acceptable range, you know that your monitoring system is working properly
- Ensure that meter and test strips work together
- Practice testing without using blood
- Check that you are testing properly
It is recommended that you perform a control solution test:
- When you first get your meter, before doing a blood glucose test
- When you open and begin using a new vial of test strips
- When you suspect that your meter or test strips are not working properly
- When you think your test results are not accurate, or if your test results are not consistent with how you feel
- When your meter is dropped, damaged or exposed to liquids
- When your health care provider advises you to do so
