Features and
Benefits:
Why Ketone Measurements Are
Important
- Diabetic
Ketoacidosis (DKA) is a life-threatening metabolic complication of
diabetes with a mortality rate of 2%-10%1
- DKA is the
leading cause of hospitalization, morbidity, and death in children
with type 1 diabetes 2
- The use of a
blood test for early detection of increased blood ketone levels can
help to avert DKA3,4,5
- According to
the ADA, blood ketone testing should be performed on sick days and
whenever glucose is greater than 250-300 mg/dL.
Glucose and Ketones on the Same
Meter - The Nova Max Plus Glucose Meter automatically converts
itself to a Ketone meter by inserting the Nova Max Plus Ketone
strip.
-
No Coding
Needed - Miscoded meters can lead to glucose errors as large as
50%
-
No Maltose
Error: Keeps some patients from getting falsely elevated
glucose results from the presence of other sugars in the blood such
as maltose.
-
Tiny 0.3
Microliter Sample Size - Less pain for patients.
-
Virtually
Pain-Free 33 Gauge Lancets - Thinnest on the market – virtually
pain free lancing –especially important for patients who test
frequently.
-
Fast 5-Second
Glucose Results and 10-Second Ketone Results
Nova Max® Glucose Test
Strips - The Nova Max® Test Strips require no coding, a small
blood sample of .3 microliters and come in a larger, easier to open
vial. Contains 50 test strips.
Nova Max® Ketone Test
Strips - New Nova Max® Ketone Test Strips are packaged in a box
containing 10 individually wrapped blood ketone test strips. The
foil wrapped test strips are designed to be carried in your Nova
Max Plus glucose meter case. The ADA recommends that blood ketone
testing should be performed on sick days and whenever glucose
values are greater than 250 mg/dL. Blood ketone measurements can
often be done on same finger stick as glucose testing.
Nova Sureflex Lancing
Device - Deciding on a lancing device is simple when comfort
matters. The Nova Sureflex Lancing Device features 5 penetration
depth settings and a force adjustment feature for more comfort and
control. The device also comes with a clear alternate site end cap
for testing on the forearm and palm.
Nova Sureflex Lancets
- The Nova
Sureflex Lancets are 33 gauge and designed for use with your Nova
Sureflex Lancing Device. It is important to change and replace your
lancet after every test and dispose of the used lancet in the
correct manner. Please check with your local community or ask your
CDE for specific instructions on disposal of used lancets.
Nova Max® Control
Solution - Control Solution tests are important in
making sure your test strips and monitor are working properly. Ask
your retailer about ordering control solution as needed. See the
Nova Max® Owner's Guide for full details on specific times to use
control solution. Nova Max® Control Solution is available in normal,
low, and high.
Diabetes Nutritional
Placement - Developed as a learning aid for anyone with
diabetes to gain a basic understanding of nutrition and portion
sizes for a variety of food types. The placemat uses a simple
dinner plate divided into three sections to show recommended
portions for meat, starch and vegetables. In addition, the placemat
provides information using real-live comparisons for portion sizes,
typical calories burned during lifestyle activities, and a “Did you
know?” box that provides the “added” calorie values for common
sweets like a scoop of ice cream or a chocolate chip cookie. The
backside provides serving sizes for the various food groups
including Meat, Starch, Vegetables, Fruit, Milk, Fat and Free
Foods. There is also an 800 number to help you find a Certified
Diabetes Educator (CDE).
