Nova Max test strips require no coding for an easy glucose testing experience that delivers fast and accurate readings. This means you don’t have to look for the code, which allows for faster and much easier glucose testing at home.

Glucose readings are available in as little as 5 seconds. Nova Max test strips offer alternate site testing, which means in addition to capillary fingerstick testing, test samples from can be obtained from alternate sites including the palm or forearm.

CONTORL TESTING
You may use the Nova Max Control Solution to check that your meter and test strips are working correctly and to ensure you’re getting accurate results with your Nova Max test strips. It is important that you carry out this simple check regularly.
Nova Max control solution is a liquid that contains a fixed amount of glucose. Use this solution to test that your monitor and test strips are working properly and to practice or to check that you are following the correct testing procedure without using your own blood. If the monitor reading is within the control solution’s acceptable range, the meter is working properly. For precise instructions please check the Nova Max manual provided in the test strips box.
WHEN TO RUN A CONTROL SOLUTION TEST
The control solution test confirms that your Nova Max test strips and glucose monitor are working correctly. A control solution test is similar to a blood glucose test, except you use Nova Max Control Solution and not a blood sample.
According to Nova Max Blood Glucose Monitor Owner’s Guide you should run a control solution test using a Nova Max control solution:
- When you first get your monitor and at least once a week thereafter
- Each time you open and begin using a new vial of Nova Max test strips
- If you leave the test strip vial cap open for any length of time
- If the monitor is dropped, damaged, or exposed to liquids
- If you think your test results are not accurate, or if your test results are not consistent with how you feel
- To check the performance of the monitor and test strips
- Nova Max High and Low Glucose Controls are also recommended as an additional quality control check for your blood glucose monitoring system
