StatStrip® Glucose
StatStrip® Xpress™ Glucose
StatStrip® Patented*, New Multi-Well Technology Creates a New Class of Performance for Bedside Glucose Testing
The Nova StatStrip Glucose Monitoring system features a patented Multi-Well measuring technology that meets the escalating demands of today’s hospital glucose testing. StatStrip technology elevates bedside glucose testing to a level of accuracy, precision, and patient safety that approaches the quality of central laboratory testing.
Measures and Eliminates Hematocrit Interferences

StatStrip is the only bedside glucose meter to eliminate glucose errors due to hematocrit interference. Hematocrit interference can cause glucose errors as large as 30%. One of StatStrip’s measuring wells measures hematocrit and corrects the glucose result for abnormal hematocrit levels.
Eliminates Errors cause by Maltose, Galactose, Oxygen, and Electrochemical Interferences

StatStrip Multi-Well technology employs an additional interference measurement well to measure and eliminate electrochemical interferences.
