How to Use Your Monitor’s Optional Memory Functions
An example of how you may use the Time-Specific Average function
is shown on the next page.
NOTE:
To get a Time-Specific Average, your 3 tests must be
performed on 3 of the last 5 days.
Your BD Logic™ Blood Glucose Monitor allows you to review the
average of all test results taken in the last 7 days. The average will not
include marked or control solution test results. (For information on
“Marking,” refer to page 36.)
The 7-Day Average function is turned off when you receive your new
monitor. It is automatically turned ON when you set the Time-Specific
Average function to ON.
7-DAY AVERAGE
What Are the Optional
Memory Functions?
INSULIN RECORDING
Your BD Logic™ Blood Glucose Monitor allows you to record
and review the insulin dose and type that you inject each day. You can
review up to 30 of your 250 stored insulin records on your monitor
display. An advantage of this function is that you can compare
changes in the results of your blood glucose test results to your
insulin injections. Once you have set the Insulin Recording function
to “ ,” you can record and save your insulin injections by insulin
type and dose.
• The Insulin Recording function is turned off when you receive your
new monitor. To set up the Insulin Recording function, refer to page 38.
• After you set up the function, you can review your insulin injections.
For complete information on how to review this and other Optional
Memory functions, refer to page 48.
This function is designed to help you adjust your insulin dose based
on a pattern of blood glucose values over 3 to 5 days (“pattern-control”
of your insulin). It provides information to help make these insulin
adjustments.
You can use the monitor to compute the average of 3 blood glucose test
results that you took at roughly the same time of day over the last few
days. You can select the 2-hour time period that you want this average
to be drawn from (ie, before or after meals, before or after exercise).
TIME-SPECIFIC AVERAGES
This function lets you and your healthcare professional:
• Choose up to 4 time periods during the day for which you want to
track results. The monitor labels these times as A1, A2, A3, and A4.
•View your Time-Specific Averages on the monitor display.
•View the 3 test results that make up each Time-Specific Average.
• To set up the 7-Day Average function, refer to page 38.
• After you set up the function, you can review your 7-Day Average.
For complete information on how to review this and other Optional
Memory functions, refer to page 48.
