INTRODUCTION:
iberty Blood Glucose Monitoring System
The Liberty System is a simple, accurate way to
test whole blood glucose (sugar) level, anytime,
anywhere. Our goal is to provide quality healthcare
products and dedicated customer service.
Caution! Pl as r ad compl t Own r’s Bookl t
and all product Instructions for Us .
Importance of Blood Glucose Monitoring
The more you know about diabetes, the better you
will be able to care for yourself. A Doctor or Diabetes
Healthcare Professional will determine your target
range for blood glucose results and how often to test.
Keeping results within your target range helps slow or
stop complications from diabetes.
Having most blood glucose results within your target
range shows how well a treatment plan is working to
control glucose levels. NEVER change your
treatment plan without consulting a Doctor or
Diabetes Healthcare Professional.
Use of the Liberty System in a manner not specified
in this Owner’s Booklet is not recommended and may
affect ability to determine true blood glucose levels.

patients should not be tested with a blood
glucose meter.2
• Low blood glucose (hypoglycemia) symptoms
may be:
- trembling, sweating, intense hunger,
nervousness, weakness, and trouble speaking.

galactose or maltose, including some human
immunoglobulin preparations (Octagam®),
• Xylose absorption testing,
• Intervenous solutions containing maltose,
• Any drugs which contain or metabolize to

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
For the most accurate results using the Liberty System:
•Read all instructions before testing.
• Meter displays results as Plasma values.
• Use only iberty Test Strips and iberty Glucose
Control with the iberty Meter.
• Do not use for diagnosis of diabetes or for testing
blood glucose in newborns.
• Perform Control Tests b for performing a blood
glucose test for the first time (see Getting Started).
Not :
Two levels of Liberty Glucose Control Solution are
available for Quality Control Testing. Call for
availability using the number located on the cover of
the wner's Booklet for information on obtaining
different levels of Liberty Glucose Control Solution.
• The iberty system is an in vitro (outside body)
quantitative system that is used for self-testing and
point-of-care testing of human whole blood only.
For Healthcare Professionals:
•
The most accurate results come from using fresh, capillary
whole blood from fingertip or forearm. Venous whole blood
drawn in EDTA (purple top tube) or heparin (green top
tube) may be used. Mix tube contents gently before using.
•
If comparing results between the Liberty System and a lab
system, perform a Liberty System blood test within 30
minutes of lab test. Results from the Liberty System are
considered accurate if within + 20% of lab results. If patient
has recently eaten, fingerstick results from the Liberty System
can be up to 70 mg/dL higher than venous lab results.4
