Care Touch Blood Glucose Meter Kit - Diabetes Testing Kit with Glucometer, Test Strips, Lancing Device, Lancets & Travel Case

Care Touch Diabetes Testing Kit is a simple-to-use and affordable blood glucose monitor. It comes with batteries, but the kit requires the purchase of glucose control solution and alcohol swabs. The device does not have a voice feature but produces a beep sound upon inserting the tester strip and extracting a blood sample. Regarding the puncture mechanism, one reviewer indicated that the device punctured well on the highest setting. However, the device is not suitable for those with thick skin. The monitor instantly reads the codes encrypted on each Care Touch Glucose Test Strip, which eliminates the need for programming or calibration during use. However, some reviewers expressed concerns about the accuracy of the results. One reviewer reported consistently high readings of 20-30 points higher than their healthcare provider's blood glucose monitor. Another reviewer reports inconsistent readings even with calibration using a control solution. In summary, this device may be an excellent option for people looking for a low-cost blood glucose monitor. Still, it is advisable to test its accuracy by comparing its results with those of healthcare providers.
