Abstract

Self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) using blood glucose monitoring (BGM) devices is recommended for people with
diabetes to improve glycemic control and to detect and prevent episodes of hypoglycemia in these patients. The International
Organization for Standardization (ISO) and World Health Organization (WHO) have defined specific criteria for accuracy,
precision, user evaluation, and interfering agents for the quality of these devices. In this targeted literature review, Accu-Chek®
devices (Instant®, Guide®, Active®) were found to have stable results with appropriate accuracy and precision and did not
respond to interfering agents. The devices were also found to be cost-effective and ranked high on patient preference.
