How reliable are accu chek AVIVA?
I know it says a +/-20% error margin, but my results sounds too good to be true.
Two months I went to dr. office and it was measured 142mg/l or something like that. That was about 2 hours after I had lunch.
Few weeks later I used my parents meter to read my sugar levels in the morning, and it ranged from 88 to 117... Now I bought My own, and I measured every day for the last 5 days... all measures are between 78 and 86mg/L, even when I measure after lunch.
I've then bought the level 1 and level 2 control solutions, and the control test for both resulted as OK. strips are brand new, made for AVIVA and the code on the strips matches the chip... everything looks fine except that my readings seems too good to be true
I've used different types of meters in the past but now I use the Aviva and I wouldn't change it for the world.
The numbers you cite, +/- 20% accuracy ranges may be a little high especially for the Aviva, I believe there numbers are much closer to the +/- 5-10% range, not so 5 years ago but with better technology and when you convert your 3 month average to your HbA1c results you will see they are almost right on the money.
There's no better meter and lancet device on the market right now, I haven't seen a finger prick needle in 5 years since they're enclosed in their muti-clix device. And if you have any issues with your meter they will gladly send you a new one at no charge.
