ABSTRACT
Hashemnia M, Nikousefat Z,
Sayadpour M, Afshari-Safavi EA., Blood glucose in hospitalized dogs measured
with human portable glucometers and by chemical analysis, Onl J Vet Res.,
20(6):422-428, 2016. Blood glucose concentrations in 30 dogs were
determined with 5 human portable brands and then compared with chemical
spectrophotometric glucose analysis. Pearson correlations between glucometers and
automated analyzer values were checked by error grid analysis showing no
statistically significant differences except for one brand (P <0.015).
Findings suggest that determination of glucose with human glucometers in dogs
should be verified by glucose chemical tests
Keywords: Blood glucose, canine,
portable glucometers, automated chemical analyzer.
