Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Number of Subjects With Numeric Meter Results When Users Obtain Fingerstick Capillary Blood Using the Styx Lancing Device ( 28 Gauge Lancets)
Untrained subjects with Diabetes operated the Styx Lancing Device with 28 Gauge lancets to obtain fingerstick capillary blood. Study Staff tested the capillary blood using Contour NEXT Blood Glucose Meters (BGMs) and recorded the results. Meter results could be numeric, non-numeric (ie, error messages), or not obtained at all. The number of subjects with numeric BGMS results was determined.
1 hour
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Number of Subjects With Numeric Meter Results When Users Obtain Alternate Site (AST) Palm Blood Using the Styx Lancing Device ( 28 Gauge Lancets)
1 hour
Number of Subjects With Numeric Meter Results When Users Obtain Fingerstick Capillary Blood Using the Styx Lancing Device ( 30 Gauge Lancets)

Interventions
Untrained Persons With Diabetes used the Styx Lancing Device with 28 and 30 Gauge lancets to obtain fingerstick and Alternate Site palm capillary blood. Study Staff tested the capillary blood using Contour NEXT Blood Glucose Meters (BGMs) and recorded the results. Meter results could be numeric, non-numeric (ie, error messages), or not obtained at all.
