INTRODUCTION
This is a SUCREFIT device specially designed for diabetic(high blood sugar) or hypoglycemic (low sugar) patients that indulge in exercises ranging from light workouts to strenuous workouts. The device comes as a glove that has a glucometer that checks your blood glucose level intermittently while you work out and alerts you when they get high or low as the case may be.


SAFETY INFORMATION
CAUTION:
This device should be used ONLY by either clinically diagnosed diabetic or clinically diagnosed hypoglycemic patients. Don't assume your health status. Your usage of this device MUST BE subject to your doctor's approval.

WARNING:
Should be avoided by patients with BLOOD CLOTTING Issues and Patients that have LOW blood volume or ANAEMIA.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
COMPONENTS/DESCRIPTION:
-SUCREFIT GLOVE
-GLUCOMETER
-BLOOD SUGAR TEST STRIP
-LANCETS
-TEST STRIPS POUCH


INSTALLATION/OPERATING PROCEDURES

Charge the device for at least 90 minutes and ensure that the red indicator on the gloves has turned green indicating that the battery is fully charged.

Turn the glucometer on and adjust the settings on the screen to your preference. The major setting you should work on is the pricks/hour which controls the number of times you should be pricked every hour to monitor your blood glucose as time goes on.

Sterilize the test strip and lancets and place the strips accordingly depending on the number you will use for the workout session with respect to the setting option you selected (I.e if you plan to work out for 2 hours and you set it for 15 minutes/prick then you should set out 8 test strips.).

After Sterilizing the lancet, adjust it to the part of your hand you will prefer to be pricked. Take note that it's not painful because the lancet prick is superficial.

Ensure the Test Strip pouch is adjusted properly because that's where each strip will be deposited after use.

The glucometer beeps 5 seconds after the lancet makes a prick, indicating that the blood sugar result is ready and the result is displayed on the glucometer. A continuous beeping sound indicates the result is either low or high depending on the range you set. The standard range used is 3.9-5.9mMol/L but it should be adjusted based on what your doctor says and what values he would consider worrisome/normal

MAINTENANCE
Clean all parts of the gloves regularly except the glucometer. For the glucometer, change the battery after 6 weeks of constant usage. If you must clean the glucometer it must be with a DRY cloth.
