I have a Pediatric clinic that would like to perform Blood Ketones (fingerstick).  Does anyone have a POC device that can be utilized in a multi-patient setting?  If yes, what are you using and the pros/cons of the device.  
Thank you

Hi Michelle, 
We use the Freestyle Precision Pro for our ketones.  We have in connected to our QML and since it's technically a glucometer it has all the lockouts that are needed.  The strips are individually wrapped so that's really good.  The only con I have is because. it's a glucometer it can be confusing when it tells the operator invalid strip when a ketone strip is entered for QC.  We've been using it for about 2 years.
