One Touch Select Simple is a straightforward blood glucose meter designed specifically for the needs of recently diagnosed diabetics without much experience. It does not require any buttons or menu navigation. The patient simply inserts the test strip, applies a drop of blood and receives the test result within a few seconds. The screen features large blood glucose numbers and an icon-driven interface. If a patient’s blood sugar level deviates from the normal range, a flashing arrow appears, pointing towards the corresponding icons on the housing. Simultaneously, an audio alarm alerts the user to the blood sugar data results.
