Dear Embrace TALK Owner
Thank you for choosing the Embrace TALK Blood Glucose Monitor
to help you manage your diabetes. We designed the Embrace TALK
Blood Glucose Monitor to be accurate and easy to use. The added
convenience of the bi-lingual talking feature can be used as a verbal
aid for using the monitor. This manual contains all of the information
needed to use and maintain your new blood glucose monitor. Please
read it carefully before use.
Your Embrace TALK Blood Glucose Monitor provides an easy and
precise way to measure blood glucose using fresh capillary whole
blood taken from ngertips, palm, or forearm. The added convenience
of auto-coding can help reduce the chance of inaccurate readings
caused by incorrect coding of the monitor. Testing is done outside the
body (in vitro diagnostic use). The test results are plasma-calibrated
for easy comparison to lab results. The Embrace TALK Blood Glucose
Monitor is a portable battery operated monitor intended for use as
an aid by persons with diabetes and by health care professionals to
monitor glucose concentration in whole blood.
If you have questions or simply need more information, please
call Omnis Health at 1-877-979-5454 or visit our web site at www.
embracetalk.com. Again thank you for choosing the Embrace TALK
Blood Glucose Monitor.

The Embrace TALK Blood Glucose Test Strip
The Embrace TALK are glucose specic, biosensor-based test strips
that requires very little blood sample to quickly test glucose in fresh
capillary whole blood. The test results are plasma-calibrated for an
easy comparison to lab results, but may be 10 to 15% higher than
results obtained from whole blood referenced blood glucose analysis.
The test strip is also equipped with under-ll detection to alert you
when there is not enough blood to perform a test, so you can be
assured that each reading you get is an accurate and meaningful
result.
IMPORTANT:
• Immediately close the vial cap of the test strip bottle tightly after
each use. Keep the unused test strips in the original bottle. DO NOT
leave any test strips outside the bottle while not in use.
• DO NOT reuse test strips. Test strips are for single use only.
• Carefully discard used test strips and lancets in proper waste
containers.
Contact Points
Insert this end of
the test strip into the
top of the monitor.
Sampling End
Dip this end of the
strip into the blood
or control solution
drop.
