Becton Dickinson Logic

Description:

The Becton Dickinson Logic is an automatic blood glucose meter. Although its blood glucose measurement technology has been evaluated, it is not possible to base a determination on its accuracy from this research. Blood glucose measurements are taken from the finger. It is intended for self-measurement and home use. DO NOT USE THIS DEVICE. It has been recalled by the manufacturer. Please check with your supplier or the manufacturer for further details.

Assessment:

The technology used in the Becton Dickinson Logic, to measure blood glucose, has been assessed, in a general population, according to a non-standard protocol.

Recommendations:

	Accuracy Assessment	Recommendation	Basis
BG	Medaval	None	When an evaluation is carried out using a non-standard protocol, no inference can be made on accuracy based on a standard protocol.
