* True Alert Rate is the % of time when the blood glucose level was at or above the alert
setting and the alert sounded.
** False Alert Rate is the % of time when the device alarmed but the blood glucose level
was below the alert setting.
*** Missed Alert Rate is the % of time when the device failed to alarm when the blood
glucose level was at or above the alert setting.
Performance of High and Low Glucose Alerts at night comparing the
G4-Global Receiver to YSI data has not been established with the G4-Global
Receiver Sensor. During use of the G4-Global Receiver at home, the High
Alert was set to 200 mg/dL and the Low Alert was set to 80 mg/dL. Subjects
were asked to take a fi ngerstick each time a high or low glucose alert sounded.
The G4-Global Receiver and Meter readings were compared by pairing the
G4-Global Receiver reading that occurred on average 5 minutes after the
fi ngerstick meter reading was taken during home use. Analysis of the home
use data showed that when the G4-Global Receiver was above 200 mg/dL,
77% of the OneTouch Ultra meter readings were above 200 mg/dL (True High
Alert). When the G4-Global Receiver read below 80 mg/dL, 73% of the time the
OneTouch Ultra readings were below 80 mg/dL (True Low Alerts).
The G4-Global Receiver notifi ed the subject that their glucose levels were
falsely below the Low Alert level 27% of the time and notifi ed the subject that
their glucose levels were falsely above the High Alert level 23% of the time.
