When it comes to point-of-care glucose testing, relying on at-home strip meters isn't enough. For lab-quality accuracy and reliable results, the CLIA-waived HemoCue® Glucose 201 System is the professional solution you need. Designed for healthcare providers, this analyzer delivers precise readings from a simple fingerstick test, making it ideal for managing patients with diabetes and identifying those at risk. Unlike traditional glucose strip meters, the HemoCue® Glucose 201 System offers the accuracy needed to support clinical decisions, including Oral Glucose Tolerance Tests (OGTT). With this system, you can confidently diagnose and treat diabetic patients, ensuring the highest standard of care in your practice.

What Does the HemoCue Glucose 201 System Test for?

The HemoCue® Glucose 201 System is specifically designed to measure blood glucose levels with precision and accuracy, making it an essential tool for various clinical applications:

Diabetes Diagnosis and Management

The system provides critical data for diagnosing diabetes, allowing healthcare professionals to monitor and manage glucose levels in patients with diabetes effectively.

Screening for Prediabetes

The analyzer helps identify individuals at risk for diabetes by detecting elevated blood glucose levels, enabling early intervention and prevention strategies.

Oral Glucose Tolerance Tests (OGTT)

The HemoCue® Glucose 201 System is CLIA-waived for conducting Oral Glucose Tolerance Tests (OGTT) in-office, a key diagnostic tool for assessing how a patient’s body processes glucose.

General Health Monitoring

In addition to its use in diabetes care, the system is valuable for monitoring glucose levels in patients as part of routine health checks or when there are concerns about blood sugar levels due to other medical conditions.
