Product

Accu-Chek Performa Test Strip, Blood glucose monitoring system, Catalog no. 07299702001 Product Usage: The Accu-Chek Performa test strips are for use with the Accu-Chek Performa meter to quantitatively measure glucose (sugar) in venous whole blood or fresh capillary whole blood samples from the fingertips.

Reason

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.
