Author Freestyle Glucose Meter: Approximate Error Correction?

2005-10-12, 12:50 am

My husband just noticed that he's gone through about 20 strips with his
Freestyle blood glucose monitor code set to 17 when it should
have been set to 12. He's not expecting to correct those readings with
any precision, but does anyone know at least what direction the
correction would go in, and better yet a back of the envelope
algorithm for a reasonable guess?

thanks, --thelma
