Device Manual:
Description:
The Roche Accu-Chek Mobile is a mobile (floor, stand, trolly) automatic blood glucose meter. Its blood glucose measurement technology has been proven to be accurate, with a 3-star Medaval rating. Blood glucose measurements are normally taken from the finger but alternative site testing is allowed. It is intended for both professional use and self-measurement.
Assessment:
The technology used in the Roche Accu-Chek Mobile, to measure blood glucose, is among the best rated for accuracy by Medaval Ltd. It has passed in six clinical validation studies, between general and specific populations, according to recognised standard protocols, as published in peer-reviewed publications.

Six devices were validated in the study (the Roche Accu-Chek Aviva Nano, the Roche Accu-Chek Mobile, the Roche Accu-Chek Performa Nano, the Ascensia Contour Next Link 2.4, the Abbott FreeStyle Lite and the J&J LifeScan OneTouch Verio IQ). According to the abstract, one of them failed but it does not state which one.

Comparison in children and adolescents with T1DM (aged 4 to 18 years) (along with the Bayer Contour Next Link and the JnJ LifeScan OneTouch Verio IQ) to the Abbott FreeStyle Libre Flash (n=24). Authors conclude reasonable agreement but with large interindividual variability and that further studies in children are imperative.
