Blood sample window
Proper blood application
Insufficient blood application
*Please ensure that the blood sample window is
completely filled with blood.
If it is not completely filled, do not attempt to add a
second blood sample; instead, repeat the test with a
new test strip.
*If your measured blood glucose value is below 50
mg/dL (2.8 mmol/L) or above 250 mg/dL (14 mmol/L),
please contact your healthcare professional.
Sample Volume: ~0,8 µL
Compatibility
These blood glucose test strips are intended for use only with the Novacheck® LM-602 blood glucose
meter.
Blood Glucose Test Strips:
Intended purpose: Novacheck® blood glucose test strips are intended for self-testing by people with
diabetes and for use by healthcare professionals to monitor glucose levels in whole blood.
Warning: Choking hazard: small parts. Keep out of reach of children under 3 years of age.
Introduction: Regular blood glucose testing can help you manage diabetes more effectively. Clinical
studies have shown that keeping blood glucose levels close to the target range, together with guid-
ance from your healthcare professional, may help prevent or delay diabetes-related complications
Package contents and disposal
The package contains test strips and instructions for use. Dispose of used test strips in accordance with local
regulations. For questions, please contact Novacheck®.
Note: The strips contain small amounts of reagents.
Performing a blood glucose test
Note: No coding is required.
If you have poor blood circulation, self-testing may not be appropriate.
Consult your healthcare professional.
Wash your hands with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
*Prepare your lancing device.
*Check the expiration date on the test strip vial. Do not use expired test strips.
*Insert a test strip into the meter.
*Use the lancing device to obtain a drop of blood.
*Touch the blood drop to the front edge of the yellow sample window.
The meter will start counting down from 5.
*The meter displays results in the range of 20–600 mg/dL (1.1–33.3 mmol/L).
*Storage: Store the test strips at 4°C to 32°C.
*Store the test strips only in the original vial. Close the vial cap immediately and tightly after
removing a test strip.
*Wash and dry your hands thoroughly before using the test strips.
*Do not use test strips after the expiration date. The expiration date is printed on the vial label and
on the test strip box.
*Use the test strips within 6 months after first opening the vial. Record the date you first opened
the vial on the box (or in the space provided).
*If your meter or test strips are moved from one temperature to another, wait at least 30 minutes
for them to reach room temperature before testing. The operating temperature range for the
Novacheck® blood glucose meter is specified in the user manual.
*Test strips are single-use only. Do not reuse a test strip.
After opening the test strip vial, ensure the vial cap is tightly closed. Do not use the test strips if
the vial was left open or the cap was not securely closed, or if the product appears to be missing,
damaged, or broken. Contact us for assistance: +90 342 502 27 27 or info@novadiag.com
Test procedure: Refer to the Novacheck® user manual for detailed instructions.
Test results: The meter is programmed to display results in mg/dL or mmol/L.

healthcare professional’s advice.
Comparison Options: Novacheck® system is designed for use with venous and
capillary whole blood. Comparison
with a laboratory method should be performed simultaneously with aliquots from
the same sample.
Note: Blood sugar concentrations drop rapidly due to glycolysis ( per hour 5-7 % )²
If your blood glucose level is below 50 mg/dL, seek medical attention immediately.
If your blood glucose level is above 250 mg/dL, contact your healthcare professional immediately.
Always consult your healthcare professional before making any changes to your medication based
on Novacheck® test results.

Performance features
1. Accuracy: Novacheck® LM-602 was compared with the YSI 2500 biochemical analyzer using
capillary whole blood samples collected simultaneously from 100 subjects.
1.1 Acceptance criteria: According to EN ISO 15197:2015, Clause 6.3 (reference measurement
procedure: YSI 2500), the acceptance criteria are as follows (see EN ISO 15197:2015, 6.3.3):
a) 95% of individual glucose results shall be within: ±15 mg/dL (±0.83 mmol/L) of the results of the
manufacturer’s measurement procedure at glucose concentrations <100 mg/dL (5.55 mmol/L); and
±15% of the results of the manufacturer’s measurement procedure at glucose concentrations ≥100
mg/dL (5.55 mmol/L).
b) 99% of individual glucose measured values shall fall within Consensus Error Grid (CEG) zones A
and B for type 1 diabetes.
Note: Novacheck blood glucose monitoring system results are calibrated against the YSI 2500 refer-
ence measurement procedure. The YSI 2500 analyzer is calibrated using a standard solution con-
taining 180 mg/dL (10.0 mmol/L) glucose.
Limitations:
1- Anticoagulants / Preservatives: Whole blood samples may be collected by healthcare profes-
sionals in test tubes containing heparin. Do not use other anticoagulants or preservatives unless their
compatibility has been verified.
2- Hematocrit: Novacheck® test strip results are not significantly affected by hematocrit levels within
the range of 20–60%.
3- Interfering substances (Interactions): The Novacheck® system has been tested with the follow-
ing substances that may be present due to therapeutic treatments: creatine, xylose, maltose, uric
acid, galactose, cholesterol, ibuprofen, triglycerides, EDTA-K2, heparin, gentisate, methyldopa, sali-
cylic acid, tolbutamide, icodextrin, hemoglobin.
At the highest concentration tested (maximum therapeutic concentration), no interference was
observed for these substances. The following substances may cause deviation in measurement
results at high concentrations: acetaminophen, bilirubin, tolazamide, dopamine, levodopa, pralidox-
ime, ascorbate (ascorbic acid)
Safety information
*For in vitro diagnostic use only. For external use only. Do not swallow.
*Potential biohazard: Healthcare professionals or individuals who use this system on more than one
patient must follow the infection control procedures approved by their institution. All items that come
into contact with human blood should be handled as potentially infectious and disposed of in accord-
ance with local regulations and institutional procedures.
Users must follow applicable guidelines for preventing blood-borne infections when handling poten-
tially infectious human samples in healthcare settings.
*Any serious incident that has occurred in relation to the device should be reported to the manufactur-
er and the competent authority of the Member State in which the user and/or patient is established.

Information for Healthcare Professionals:
-Clinically, it is not recommended to measure blood glucose in acutely ill patients
using a blood glucose meter.
-Lipemic samples: It is not recommended to test samples from severely lipemic
patients with the Novacheck® LM-602 system.
-Healthcare professionals who measure blood glucose in a large number of
patients should always wear gloves and follow the infection control regulations and
procedures approved by their institution.
-When using the Novacheck® LM-602 blood glucose meter, always follow standard
procedures for handling and transporting items potentially contaminated with
human material.
-Only one drop of blood is required to measure blood glucose. Capillary and
venous whole blood samples can be used.
-Avoid air bubbles when using a pipette.
-Samples stored in a refrigerator should be brought to room temperature before
testing.
-Inaccurate results may be observed in patients or individuals in shock.
-Individuals experiencing hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state (HHS), with or without
ketoacidosis, may obtain inaccurate results. Clinically ill individuals should not
perform tests with a blood glucose meter.
-If whole blood samples are collected in tubes containing heparin, testing should be
performed promptly. Do not use other anticoagulants or preservatives unless their
compatibility has been verified.
