Product Description
Accu-Chek Inform II Test Strip, Whole blood glucose test system, Catalog no. 05942861001 Product Usage: The Accu-Chek Inform II test strips are for use with the Accu-Chek Inform II meter to quantitatively measure glucose (sugar) in venous whole blood, arterial whole blood, neonatal heel stick, or fresh capillary whole blood samples drawn from the fingertips as an aid in monitoring the effectiveness of glucose control.

Reason for Recall
The recalling firm has identified two lots of test strips that are out of specification. Affected test strips show an increased potential for: strip errors prior to applying a blood sample; strips not detected once inserted; or a biased result may occur, which may not be detectable. In the case of a biased result, incorrect action could be taken by the user in response to the displayed blood glucose result as compared to the actual blood glucose value.
