The GLUCOCARD Expression is an audio-enabled, auto-code blood glucose monitoring system that includes bilingual voice features for hearing a test result. Oversized picture icons and large tactile buttons make this meter easy to use. Testing is more comfortable with a small sample size and alternate site testing. Accurate and reliable test results are displayed in six seconds. Powered by two “AAA” batteries the meter will perform 1,000 tests of continuous use. The downloadable memory holds 300 blood tests and the user can determine 7-, 14-, and 30-day averaging.
