A Novel Approach to Assess Performance of Glucometer: Error Grid Analysis

This study is the first of its kind because no similar studies have been reported in the pediatric population. For effective use of glucose meters, the devices should give as accurate results as possible. Results should not only be accurate but also precise, without which critical errors may be possible. We recommend that for any glucose meter there should be regular calibration so that agreement with the reference laboratory method is maintained and effective medical decisions are possible.
