Accuracy You Can Trust For Diagnosing DiabetesImmediate Results While the Patient is Still in Your Office

Glucose in General Practice

• 25 million adults and children in the United States

have diabetes

• 7 million have not yet been diagnosed

• An estimated 79 million more people have

prediabetes.1

The diabetes challenge is growing. That’s why we’ve

poured over 30 years of experience into bringing

accurate diagnosis and monitoring to the point of

care — making it quicker and easier to give patients

the care they need.

CLIA-Waived HemoCue Glucose 201 Systems

• Lab-accurate results for testing type 1, type 2, and

gestational diabetes, approved for:

- Diagnosis

- Monitoring

• CPT code and additional clinical applications yield larg-

er volume of testing and higher reimbursements

• Microcuvette technology means no need to bring

analyzer near patients, reducing the risk of spreading

infection

Accurate Results with Full Confidence

• Diagnosing diabetes can be performed by either

measuring fasting plasma glucose (FPG) or

performing an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)

• System is designed to minimize the impact from

interferences

• No clinically significant variation in cuvettes

from lot to lot

Simple to Use and Easy to Maintain

• Three simple steps for rapid, lab-quality results

• Factory-calibrated so no need to recalibrate

• Flexible connectivity solutions streamline workflow and

reduce errors

Wide Range of Clinical Applications

• General Practice

- Immediate results allow for more efficient patient

visits and an earlier start to treatment.

• Diabetes Care

- Ease of use and clinical accuracy help make

diabetes management efficient.

• Pediatrics

- The relative inability of children to recognize and

respond to hypoglycemic symptoms place them at

greater risk for severe hypoglycemia. Accurate

glucose testing is essential for an appropriate

diagnosis and monitoring.

• OB/GYN

- When testing for gestational diabetes, glucose

measurements must be accurate and precise to
