ABOUT THIS SYSTEM
 Intended Use
The FORA D40 system is a 2 in 1 system designed to measure blood glucose
and to measure blood pressure non-invasively (in vitro diagnostic use.) It is
intended for use at home and at clinical settings. It shall not be used for the
diagnosis of diabetes or hypertension, or for the testing of newborns.
 Principle of Measurement
Blood glucose is based on the measurement of electrical current generated by
the reaction of glucose with the reagent of the strip. The monitor measures the
current and displays the corresponding blood glucose level. The strength of
the current produced by the reaction depends on the amount of glucose in the
blood sample.
Blood pressure is measured non-invasively at the arm based on the
Oscillometric method.
Both functions work independently of each other (one measurement, either
blood glucose or blood pressure, at one time) in order to avoid any interference
problems.
 Major Features
This system has the following distinguishing features and allows you to perform
your measurements effectively.
1. Talking function – Instructions will be given throughout the measurement.
The settings and test results will be repeated as well.
2. No calibration required – Users do not need to calibrate the monitor.
3. AC/PC/QC records – Glucose AC is the glucose value before meal and PC
is the glucose value after meal. QC is the control solution value which users
perform to check if the system works effectively.
4. Multi-user function – It provides different users to store their results in the
memory individually.
5. Data transmission options – It helps users to manage their test results
easily and efficiently.
