Using copper as a mirror, you can dress properly; using history as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall; using a blood glucose meter as a mirror, you can know blood sugar. It can be seen that buying a good blood glucose meter is very important, so how can you buy a good blood glucose meter? Xiaotang would like to remind everyone that you should pay attention to 4 points when buying a blood glucose meter. 1. Accuracy: The test value should be as close as possible to the test value obtained by venous blood draw at the same time. The difference should not be too different, otherwise the tragedy of delaying the condition may occur. 2. Check the service: You should understand the after-sales service of the blood glucose meter and whether the supply of test strips is in place to prevent the situation of "having food but not rice". 3. Check the operation of the machine: for example, whether the blood collection needle is convenient to use, the amount of blood required, the machine's reading time, the size and clarity of the display screen, whether the battery replacement is convenient, whether the machine is beautiful, what its size is, etc.
4. Look at the price: Price is not the most important thing when purchasing a blood glucose meter. The key is quality. However, generally good blood glucose meters cost around a thousand yuan, which is an additional burden for many families. You need to weigh it comprehensively. Of course, the easiest way is to ask your trusted doctor.
Glucose meter test strips are consumables, and their price will also affect the frequency of your blood glucose monitoring. In order to get the maximum benefit, you can buy it during holidays or manufacturer promotions, and you can also enjoy various preferential policies. You can also pay attention to some regular websites that sell blood glucose meters to see if there are any discounts.
