About this study

This trial will evaluate the performance of both the CONTOUR NEXT BGMS and CONTOUR PLUS ELITE BGMS using blood from neonates within a hospital ward, e.g. routine/newborn nurseries, Special Care Nurseries, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). The investigational BGMSs will be tested by a Point-of-Care operator using residual heel-stick capillary blood samples from neonates who underwent routine prescribed testing.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Residual capillary (heel-stick) blood samples from neonates (less than 28 days of age) after birth as part of prescribed testing.
  • Sample blood volume must be sufficient to complete investigational testing in addition to routine prescribed clinical laboratory testing.

Exclusion criteria

  • Samples from subjects who are ≥ 28 days of age.
  • Samples from subjects who have previously been enrolled into this study.

Treatment and study plan

Contour Next and Contour Plus Elite BGMS testing of neonatal blood

Device

The purpose of this study is to extend the intended use of two BGMSs to include testing of neonatal blood by Health Care Professionals in a clinical setting for the quantitative measurement of glucose levels in neonates.

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Results From the Contour Next BGMSs Reference Values Within ±12.5% of Reference Values

    Time frame: 1 day

    At least 95% of all blood glucose results shall fall within ±12.5% of reference values (laboratory method) for glucose concentration ≥100 mg/dL(5.55 mmol/L )and within ±12 mg/dL(±0.67 mmol/L) at glucose concentrations <100 mg/dL(5.55 mmol/L).

  2. Number of Results From the Contour Plus Elite BGMSs Reference Values Within ±12.5% of Reference Values

    Time frame: 1 day

    At least 95% of values should be within ±12.5% of reference values (laboratory method) for glucose concentration ≥75 mg/dL(4.16 mmol/L) and within ±15 mg/dL(±0.83 mmol/L) at glucose concentrations < 75 mg/dL(4.16 mmol/L).
