Second-Chance® Sampling

CONTOUR®PLUS meters feature Second-Chance® sampling, which clearly prompts patients to apply more blood to the same test strip when the first sample is not enough:

  • Helps reduce frustration at having to re-lance*1
  • Helps to reduce wasted strips*1
  • Highly accurate, even after applying more blood to the same strip*2

CONTOUR® meters will display blood glucose measurements in your country standard metric (mmol/L).
Indicated in an online survey of 400 HCPs and patients with diabetes in US, CAN, DE and UK as a potential benefit of Second-Chance™ sampling. CONTOUR®

No Coding®

CONTOUR®PLUS meters come with No Coding® technology as standard, removing the need to manually code the meter before testing, eliminating errors due to user miscoding. CONTOUR® meters will display blood glucose measurements in your country standard metric (mmol/L).

Sip-in Sampling®

We've refined our strip technology to make it as simple as possible for you to get a successful blood glucose reading. CONTOUR®PLUS meters require only a small drop of blood to register a reading ‐ only 0.6µl. That's one ten thousandth of a teaspoon!

Short testing time

There is just a 5 second countdown between applying your sample and getting a result with CONTOUR®PLUS blood glucose meter systems. CONTOUR® meters will display blood glucose measurements in your country standard metric (mmol/L).
