Performance Data Summary The international standard, ISO 15197, requires that at least 95% of the results from blood glucose meters should be within 20% of laboratory results when equal to or above 75 mg/dL and within 15 mg/dL when below 75 mg/dL. The CONTOUR TS System exceeded this goal. A study was conducted on 105 untrained users with diabetes, testing fi ngertip blood, to see how well the CONTOUR TS System compared to laboratory results. The study demonstrated that 97.9% of the CONTOUR TS System results were within the accuracy standard.
