Storage

n Store the system and test strips in the same

environment in which they are used.

n Do not store the meter in direct sunlight or under

extreme temperature conditions.

n Observe the limits for temperature and humidity

when storing and using the meter (see Chapter 12).

Cleaning and disinfecting the ACCU-CHEK Inform II system

Cleaning and disinfecting the exterior surface of the

meter is, at minimum, recommended daily for dedicated

patient devices. Meters used with multiple patients may

require more frequent cleaning and disinfecting. Follow

recommendations from the FDA, CDC, and CMC and your

facility’s policies and procedures for infection control.

The FDA recommends that Point of Care testing devices,

such as blood glucose meters, should be used only on

one patient and not shared. If dedicating blood glucose

meters to a single patient is not possible, the meters must

be properly cleaned and disinfected after every use

following the guidelines given in this section.

For technical assistance or questions on cleaning and

disinfecting, please contact ACCU-CHEK Customer

Care at 1-800-440-3638.
