XpressGluco+ and Beyond: A Comprehensive Comparison of Blood Glucose Monitoring Devices for its Assessing Accuracy, Ease of Use and Cost

Abstract

This study presents a comparative analysis of several commercially available blood glucose monitoring systems. The devices were evaluated based on various parameters, including accuracy, ease of use, data management capabilities, and cost-effectiveness. While all devices demonstrated acceptable accuracy levels, differences were observed in features such as memory capacity, blood sample size, and connectivity options. The AccuChek Insta stood out as the most accurate device, offering additional features like post-meal indicators and USB connectivity. For users seeking a wider measurement range and higher memory capacity, the Xpress Gluco+ emerged as a strong contender. However, for those prioritizing simplicity and affordability, the Dr. Morepen and SD CodeFree devices may be suitable options. This comparative analysis provides valuable insights for individuals with diabetes in selecting the most appropriate blood glucose monitoring system to meet their specific needs and preferences.
