CHAPTER 1. Understanding New Analyzer
1. Indication for Use; Purpose of the Analyzer
The STANDARD LipidoCare Analyzer is designed to measure the quantitative measurement of the blood parameters: Total Cholesterol(‘TC’), Triglycerides(‘TG’),
High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol(‘HDL’), calculated ‘LDL’, ‘LDL/HDL’, ‘non-HDL’ and glucose. This system is intended for in vitro diagnostic use to test fresh
capillary whole blood, venous whole blood plasma or serum. The STANDARD LipidoCare Lipid Test system should be only used with the STANDARD LipidoCare
Lipid Test Strip and either the STANDARD LipidoCare Blood Glucose Test Strip or the SD Codefree Blood Glucose Test strip. The system is suitable for professional
use as well as for self-testing, and is a valuable tool in monitoring diabetes and cholesterol levels, but it is not intended to diagnose diabetes or cholesterol-
related cases.

2. Test principle
LIPID
By means of a codechip, the Analyzer reads the lot-specific characteristics of the lipid test strips currently in use. Then an unused test strip is inserted into the
Analyzer. While inserted, the application area of the test strip is illuminated by an LED (light-emitting diode) from below. Before the actual measurement is
performed, the reflection behaviour of the test strip is determined by means of the light which is reflected (from the application area). The blood sample is then
applied to the application area and the measurement chamber flap is closed. The constituent to be determined in the applied sample undergoes an enzymatic
reaction with formation of a dye. The amount of dye formed increases with the concentration of the substance to be determined. After a certain period of time,
the colour intensity is measured by illuminating the application area again from below using the LED. The intensity of the reflected light is measured with a
detector (reflectance photometry). The measured value is determined from the signal strength of the reflected light, with the previously measured blank value
and the read lot-specific information (codechip) also being considered. Finally, the result is displayed and simultaneously stored in the memory.
GLUCOSE
The glucose test strip is designed with an electrode that measures glucose levels. Glucose in the blood sample mixes with reagent on the test strip that causes
a small electric current. The amount of current that is created depends on how much glucose is in the blood. The STANDARD LipidoCare Analyzer measures the
current that is created and converts the measurement to the amount of glucose that is in the blood. The blood glucose result is displayed on the LCD display. By
touching a drop of blood to the tip of the glucose test strip, the strip’s reaction chamber automatically draws the blood into the strip through capillary action.
When the chamber is full, the STANDARD LipidoCare Analyzer starts to measure the blood glucose level.

3. Before You Start Testing


Carefully read and follow the instructions in the measuring and package inserts for the lipid test strips and control solutions. It is very
important to follow the instructions in order to prevent an incorrect result or improper treatment.

Samples
Lipid
The STANDARD LipidoCare Analyzer for lipid testing is designed for measuring fresh capillary whole blood or venous blood (venous whole blood, serum or
plasma) sample.
* Professional use only for venous blood.

Glucose
The STANDARD LipidoCare Analyzer for glucose is designed for testing fresh capillary whole blood samples (for example, blood from your fingertip, palm, upper
arm, or forearm). Do not use the STANDARD LipidoCare Analyzer for glucose of serum or plasma or arterial, venous whole blood.

Refer to the Safety Information


There is a potential risk of infection. We recommend that healthcare professionals using the STANDARD LipidoCare Analyzer to perform measurements for more
than one patient use gloves and follow all other locally applicable health and safety regulations.

Operating conditions
To ensure proper function of your STANDARD LipidoCare Analyzer, observe the following guidelines:
• Operate the analyzer only with the acceptable environmental conditions; temperature: 5°C to 45°C, humidity: maximum relative humidity 80 % for
4
temperatures up to 31°C decreasing linearly to 39% relative humidity at 45°C, altitude: up to 3,776m.
• In order to perform a measurement, place the Analyzer on a level surface or hold it in your hand.

5. Power supply
To save power, the Analyzer turns itself off after 5 minutes unless a button is pressed or a new test strip is inserted. When the Analyzer turns itself off, all test
results obtained so far remain in the memory. Battery life is expected at approximately 1000 measurements. When the battery warning is displayed for the first
time, approximately 50 measurements can still be performed. In this case, replace the batteries as soon as possible.
When replacing the new batteries, you must re-enter the date and time. Use only AAA alkaline manganese batteries.
Measurement results including the related measurement date and time as well as all other Analyzer settings, remain stored even when no batteries are inserted.
Please respect the environment and dispose of used batteries according to your local regulations and laws.
Do not throw batteries onto an open fire. There is a risk of explosion.

If the results are out of the measuring range, the analyzer displays "N/A" for the calculated parameters related to the measurement
parameters.

Expected Value
The National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute issued the Third Report of the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) Expert Panel on Detection, Evaluation,
and Treatment of High Blood Cholesterol in Adults (Adult Treatment Panel III) in May 2011. The ATP III report presented the NCEP’s updated clinical guidelines for
cholesterol testing and management and described the following classifications for cholesterol and triglyceride testing:

22
mg/dL mmol/L Classification mg/dL mmol/L Classification
LDL <100 <2.59 Optimal HDL <40 <1.03 Low
100~129 2.59~3.34 Near optimal/ ≥60 ≥1.55 High
above optimal Triglycerides <150 <1.69 Normal
130~159 3.36~4.11 Borderline high 150~199 1.69~2.25 Borderline high
160~189 4.14~4.89 High 200~499 2.26~5.64 High
≥190 ≥4.91 Very high ≥500 ≥5.65 Very high
Total <200 <5.18 Desirable
Cholesterol 200~239 5.18~6.19 Borderline high
≥240 ≥6.22 High
The ATP III identified HDL levels below 40 mg/dL (1.03 mmol/L) as associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) in men and women. A high
HDL level greater than or equal to 60 mg/dL (1.55 mmol/L) is protective and decreases CHD risk.

HDL
HDL is valid only if Triglyceride level is below 650 mg/dL (7.34 mmol/L).

non-HDL
ATP III identifies non-HDL (total cholesterol minus HDL) as a secondary target of therapy in persons with high triglycerides (≥200 mg/dL).
The goal for non-HDL in persons with high serum triglycerides can be set at 30 mg/dL higher than that for LDL on the premise that a VLDL level ≤30 mg/dL is
normal. non-HDL can be calculated using the equation below.
*non-HDL(calculated) = Total Cholesterol - HDL

LDL
LDL can be calculated using the equation below. Calculated LDL is an estimation of LDL and valid only if Triglyceride level is 400 mg/dL (4.52 mmol/L) or below.
*LDL (calculated) = Total Cholesterol - HDL - (Triglycerides/5) (mg/dL)
*LDL (calculated) = Total Cholesterol - HDL - (Triglycerides/2.17) (mmol/L)

• If Triglyceride level is above 400mg/dL (4.52mmol/L), the analyzer displays "N/A" for LDL and LDL/HDL.
• If Triglyceride level is "Hi", the analyzer displays "N/A" for HDL, LDL, LDL/HDL and non-HDL.
• If HDL level is "Lo", the analyzer displays "N/A" for HDL, LDL, LDL/HDL and non-HDL.

Understanding Glucose Results
The STANDARD LipidoCare Analyzer is plasma-equivalent for glucose testing. Your Analyzer glucose results may be different from clinical lab results. This is due
to normal variation. To compare your Analyzer with lab results, follow the guidelines below.

Your glucose results


1. 5 seconds after applying blood to a glucose strip, you will receive a test result between 10mg/dL and 600mg/dL (0.6mmol/L and 33.3mmol/L)

BL

2. If your blood glucose is above 600 mg/dL (33.3mmol/L), you will receive a “HI” and if below 10 mg/dL(0.6mmol/L), you will receive “Lo”. In these cases,
repeat the test with a new glucose test strip. If these messages are displayed again, contact your healthcare professional immediately.

BL BL BL

• Range of Expected Values


Self-testing may help to monitor your blood glucose levels. Consult with your physician to determine the best range of expected blood glucose values
for you.
• Expected blood glucose values for non-diabetic adults are as follows:
» Before eating < 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L)
» One to Two hours after meals < 140 mg/dL (7.8 mmol/L)

These test strips deliver results that correspond to blood glucose concentrations in plasma as per the recommendation of the International Federation of Clinical
Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC). Therefore, the STANDARD LipidoCare analyzer displays blood glucose concentrations that refer to plasma although
whole blood is always applied to the test strip.

What This Means For You


Frequent blood glucose testing is the best means to track how well you are doing with your diabetes management. It helps you track the effects of medications,
diet, exercise, and stress management. Test results can also tell you if your diabetes is changing. This may alert you to adjust your treatment plan. Always
consult your healthcare professional before making any adjustments.

Frequency of Testing
Work with your healthcare professional to decide when and how often to test. This will depend on such things as age, type of diabetes, and medications. It is
important to make testing part of your daily routine.

CHAPTER 3. Using the Analyzer Memory

CHAPTER 11. Warnings, Precautions and Limitations
− Discard test strip after using. Strips are to be read once. Never insert or read a used test strip.
− Do not ingest.
− Discard the used test strip according to local regulations.
− Store and transport analyzer at -20~50°C (-4~122°F) and 10%-93%RH.

1. Test Strip for Lipid


1. Make sure the codechip number matches the lipid test strip code number. Never use a codechip from a different lot.
2. Out-of-date or expired strips cannot be used in your test system. Check the expiration date in the package or pouch.
3. Add all of the blood to the lipid test strip at one time. If you do not get all of the blood on the strip, do not add more blood to the same strip. Test again
with a new test strip and fresh blood sample.
4. Venous whole blood, serum and plasma is only for professional use.

2. Test Strip for Glucose


1. Use only fresh capillary blood. Do not use serum or plasma or venous whole blood.
2. The STANDARD LipidoCare System is not designed to be a substitute for pathology laboratory equipment and should not be used for the diagnosis of
diabetes.
3. Extremes in hematocrit may affect test results. Hematocrit levels less than 20% may cause falsely high readings. Hematocrit levels greater than 60%
may cause falsely low readings.
4. Not intended for screening or diagnosis or for use on neonates.
5. Never make significant changes to your diabetes control program or ignore physical symptoms without consulting with your healthcare professional.
6. Severe dehydration (excessive water loss) may cause false low results. If you believe you are suffering from dehydration, consult your healthcare
professional right away.
7. Inaccurate results may occur in severely hypotensive individuals or patients in shock. Inaccurate low results may occur for individuals experiencing a
hyperglycemichyperosmolar state, with or without ketosis. Critically ill patients should not be tested with the Analyzer.

Appendix 1: Information for Healthcare Professionals
Protection against infections
There is a potential risk of infection. Medical staff using the STANDARD LipidoCare Analyzer to perform measurements for more than one patient must be aware
that any object coming into contact with human blood is a potential source of infection.
• Use gloves.
• Apply blood outside the Analyzer. When measuring glucose in several persons clean and disinfect the Analyzer before each measurement as blood
cannot be applied using capillary pipettes.
• When measuring cholesterol and triglycerides in several persons, always use capillary pipettes to apply blood outside the Analyzer.
• Dispose of used capillary pipettes and lipid test strips in a clinical waste bin.
• Follow all other locally applicable guidelines and regulations on health and safety.
