Blood glucose monitoring is the way of testing the concentration of glucose in the blood (glycemia). This is particularly important in diabetes management as a blood glucose test is usually performed by piercing the skin on the finger to draw blood and then applying the blood to a chemically active disposable 'test-strip'. Most systems measure an electrical characteristic and use this to determine the glucose level in the blood. The test is usually referred to as capillary blood glucose.
Medical professionals advise patients with diabetes mellitus on the appropriate monitoring regimen for their condition. Most people with type 2 diabetes test at least once per day. The Mayo Clinic generally recommends that diabetics who use insulin test their blood sugar more often and both to assess the effectiveness of their prior insulin dose and to help determine their next insulin dose.
Testing should then be recorded in the Blood Sugar Log Book. This will help you keep track daily (7 entries per page) for an entire year. The Blood Sugar Log Book will come in handy at any doctor's appointment where you can show your physician exact records.
