mg/dL
meal slot designation. For this reason, it is important to note if schedule times are appropriate before you transfer readings. It is also important to synchronize your meter clock with that of the PC (assuming the PC clock is correct), to ensure that future readings are slotted correctly. OneTouch
®
DMS will notify you if your PC and meter clocks are out of
sync by more than 15 minutes.
Using comments/events to assign meter readings to time slots:
®
Depending on meter type, some OneTouch
Meters allow you to tag a reading with a meal slot comment. Such readings will be assigned to the same meal slot by the OneTouch
®
DMS application, even if they are taken at a time outside the meal slot range. For example, a reading with a “Before- Breakfast” comment/event would be assigned to the Before-Breakfast time slot even if it were taken outside that time slot. This feature applies only to the OneTouch Profile

Displaying Results as Plasma Values or Whole Blood Values
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PLASMA AND WHOLE BLOOD READINGS:
All LifeScan meters require a sample of whole blood from your finger or arm to give you a blood glucose reading. But there is a difference in how certain OneTouch
®
Meters measure the amount of glucose in the blood.
A few LifeScan meters measure glucose based on the entire whole blood sample. Others measure glucose based on only the plasma portion of the whole blood sample. Plasma is the liquid portion of the whole blood sample after the red blood cells are removed. Most clinical laboratories measure plasma glucose. There is a difference in the glucose concentration in whole blood and plasma. A glucose reading from a plasma sample is about 12% higher than a reading from a whole blood sample. So if you are using a LifeScan meter that measures plasma glucose, readings will be about 12% higher than those taken from a LifeScan meter that measures glucose from the entire whole blood portion.
It's important to remember this difference when comparing glucose readings from OneTouch
®
Meters with measurements taken at the lab. Several OneTouch® Meters automatically convert readings to plasma values. Others may not, depending on the country or locale where the meter was purchased. See the table below for more information on each OneTouch
®
Meter.
CAUTION: Due to the difference in glucose readings related to plasma or whole blood reporting, it is important to use the right test strips with OneTouch because test strips are designed to work hand in hand with the way OneTouch
®
Meters. That's
®
Meters measure glucose in the blood. For this reason, you should only use test strips purchased in the same country or locale where you purchased your meter. This will ensure that you are using the right test strips. As a result, your glucose readings will be as consistent and accurate as possible. Please refer to the documentation that comes with the test strips.
Note: When communicating with devices other than OneTouch
®
Meters, the Software
assumes that these devices are plasma calibrated unless otherwise specified.

Notes:
Default before-meal and after-meal target ranges are provided for Type 1 and Type 2
diabetes. There are no default target ranges for Gestational diabetes or the three Custom diabetes types.
As you set or change target ranges for each Diabetes Type, you are impacting the
targets that are applied to all patients with that Diabetes Type who use Diabetes Type targets. This means you are setting the target ranges for viewing and printing Reports for each individual patient. It also means you are affecting the target ranges that are applied in the General Tab of the Patient Setup screen.
Targets will shift if you switch between Plasma and Whole Blood.

67 mg/dL (3.7 mmol/L) when using plasma values, and 60mg/dL
(3.3 mmol/L) when using whole blood values
or
70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L) when using plasma values, and
63 mg/dL (3.5 mmol/L) when using whole blood values.
To change the Hypoglycemic threshold, enter the desired threshold value in the field. The Hypoglycemic threshold must be from:
50 to 90 mg/dL (2.8 to 5 mmol/L) when using plasma values
or
45 to 80 mg/dL (2.5 to 4.4 mmol/L) when using whole blood
values.
Notes:
The Hypoglycemic threshold will change whenever you shift
between Whole Blood and Plasma display options. You may switch display options in the General Tab of the Preferences screen. OneTouch

Glucose readings transferred from the meter are saved in the database. Any Date and Time tags and any Comments or Event Markers associated with a reading are also transferred. Event Markers impact how glucose readings are organized and displayed in Program Reports. Once readings have been transferred, you may clear the readings from the meter memory.
Before you can transfer readings or clear readings from the meter memory, you must first establish communication between your PC and the meter. Communication steps are covered below. Please note the following as you establish communications between the meter and your PC:

The rules for assigning meter readings to the database are as follows:
You may transfer readings from a particular meter to the same patient as the previous
transfer, a new patient, or a Guest patient.
If you want to transfer readings from a meter to a different patient than before, you
must have selected Require name confirmation to get the meter readings in the General Tab of the Preferences screen. You will be prompted to select a new patient name. Scroll through the names in the Patient field and select the desired one. If you do not see the patient name you are looking for, you may click on the Add New Patient link to create a new name.
A Guest patient is a permanent entry in the OneTouch
®
DMS database. It serves as a generic patient name. For example, you can transfer meter readings to the Guest patient name for anyone for whom you want to generate a report but for whom you don't care if their records are saved in the database. Previous Guest entries are deleted from the database every time you start up the Software and each time you transfer new readings to the Guest patient.
You may stop the transfer process by clicking on the Cancel button.
Notes:
If you are a new OneTouch
®
DMS user with a blank (empty) database, only the Guest patient name exists in the database. This means you will have to click on the Add New Patient button to create a new patient name for the meter transfer.
If meter readings are not successfully transferred, an on screen message box will
prompt you to check the meter/cable connections. For other meter communications problems, see Appendix C: Troubleshooting.

After readings are transferred from a device and saved to a patient file, OneTouch® DMS will display the following information:
1. Total number of results transferred
2. Number of duplicate results
3. Number of unsuitable results. A result is reported as unsuitable when the record transferred from the device is invalid. Some examples of unsuitable results include:
The record is missing date or time information.
The record date is invalid (e.g. the 13th month in the year).
4. Number unsupported results. Unsupported results are valid result types that are either

DMS assumes that a meter is associated with only one patient at a time. So when a transfer takes place, all readings are assumed to belong to that one patient. If you plan to have more than one patient use the same meter, make sure to clear the meter readings between transfers. This will ensure that data for different patients are not intermingled. Refer to the Clear Meter Readings section for information about clearing meter readings.

Using ToolTips (the “hover-over” feature) when viewing Reports
ToolTips provide an easy way to display information that's tagged to a particular data value on a Report screen. This OneTouch
®
DMS feature is also very useful when viewing results that are represented by symbols rather than numbers, or that are very close to one another on the screen. To activate ToolTips, move the mouse pointer to a particular data value. A message box will appear with Date, Time, Comments, and other information depending on the result type.
Using ToolTips with Insulin Doses will also display the Insulin Type.
Using ToolTips with Exercise icons will also display the duration and intensity of the
exercise.
Note: Remember that selected Reports (Logbook, Summary, Standard Day, and Day View) will display records for meal slots that cross the midnight hour as falling in the same day as the Before-Breakfast slot that preceded it. However, ToolTips will show the actual date of the readings.

Statistics Panel
A statistics panel is included in all reports except for the Insulin, Health Checks, Exception Reports, and any Add-in Reports. The Panel provides a quantitative summary of the data that is included in a particular Report.
When you see this in the
It means this:
Statistics Panel:
Glucose Average The average of all glucose readings in the Report.
% Within Target The percentage of glucose readings in the Report that
are within the Before-Meal and After-Meal target ranges.
# of Glucose Readings The total number of glucose readings included in
the Report. Omitted and Deleted readings are not included in the calculations.
Number of Hypo Readings The total number of readings that were at or below the
Hypoglycemic threshold.
Standard Deviation A measure of the variability (spread) between
individual glucose readings and the Glucose Average calculated above. The higher the variability, the higher the standard deviation.
Target Type Specifies the Diabetes Type for the patient covered
by the Report and whether the results are compared to global targets or personal targets.

Colors and Shading in Reports
Several Reports use color, shading and typefaces to display data or to differentiate data when viewing or printing Reports.
Viewing Reports:
The following reports use separate cell colors and bold type to highlight individual
readings that are outside the target ranges: Pie Chart, Logbook Report, Data List Report, Summary Report, and the Day View screens.
Different cell colors are used for above target readings, below target readings, and
hypoglycemic readings. A legend that explains the meaning of the colors will appear on every Report that has out-of-target readings.
Insulin doses that were transferred from a meter are highlighted in regular type. Doses
that were taken according to a OneTouch
®
DMS Regimen will appear in bold type.
Several Report graphs also show the Overall (Target) Range as a shaded gray band.
Printing Reports:
Reports may be printed in color or black and white.
•Color printing: Identical color schemes are used for viewing and printing reports.
• Black and white printing: In the Logbook Report, the Data List Report, the Summary Report, and Day View screens, out-of-target readings are highlighted as bold italics. The Pie Chart Report uses fill patterns to differentiate out-of-target and within-target breakdowns. A legend that explains the meaning of the different fill patterns will appear on every Report that has out-of-target readings.
The default setting for printing is color. To change this setting, deselect color print
from the File, Print Options menu.
The Overall (Target) Range will appear as horizontal dashed lines.

Glucose Trend Report
The Glucose Trend Report displays daily glucose readings for a selected Date Range (see
Figure 3.6). This Report helps you easily track changes in glucose readings from day to day.
Glucose readings are displayed as dots on an X-Y graph. Each reading is connected to
the next with a dashed line.
Note: The dashed line that connects blood sugar readings in this graph does not reflect actual glucose levels. Blood sugars can go high or low throughout the day especially around mealtimes, medication or exercise. Actual testing before and after these events is required to get a better picture of how they affect your sugar levels.
Readings will appear in chronological order from oldest to most recent. The X-axis
represents the date and time of the reading and the Y-axis represents the actual glucose level. All glucose readings for a particular day are displayed. When printing the Glucose Trend Report, readings are displayed as dots and are connected by solid lines.
The shaded gray area on the graph represents the Overall (Target) Range. Any readings
that fall above or below the shaded gray area are considered outside of this range. When printing the Glucose Trend Report, the Overall (Target) Range limits will appear as horizontal dashed lines.
You may point to any dot to display the value, Date, Time, Slot and Comments tagged
to that result.

Pie Chart Report
The Pie Chart Report displays the percentage of glucose readings that fall above, below and within each Before-Meal and After-Meal target range. This Report helps you easily see how glucose readings compare with target ranges for each Meal Slot (see
Figure 3.7).
A total of eight pie charts will appear in the Report. These represent the Before-Meal
and After-Meal breakdowns for each Meal Slot , one for Night and one for Overall Target Range.
Pie charts for each Before-Meal and After-Meal pairing will appear side by side. This
helps you scan for trends within a particular Meal Slot.
Chart pairings are also stacked vertically so you can compare Before-Meal percentages
and After-Meal percentages across all Meal Slots.
The Pie Chart Report uses applicable Before-Meal and After-Meal target ranges to
display an Overall Total range. The Overall Total pie chart provides the percentage breakdowns using all glucose readings within and outside the Overall (Target) Range.
