CLEAR CHOICE
Do you have doubts?
Do you want to repeat the test?
Use CLEAR CHOICE PLUS test with two strips for additional control verification.
If you have doubts, repeated test should be done 2 days later, as HCG concentration doubles in a pregnant woman's body within 48 hours. The repeated test should be done in the morning, after sleep, as the highest HCG hormone concentration is found in the morning urine in the early stage of the pregnancy.
INTENDED USE:
HCG Urine Pregnancy Test intended for Self-Testing, measures the presence of the hormone Human
Chorionic Gonadotrophin (HCG) in human urine for the early detection of pregnancy.
SUMMARY AND EXPLANATION:
HCG is produced by the placenta during pregnancy, shortly after the embryo attaches to the uterine
lining. Usually HCG can be detected by a home pregnancy test within 3-4 days after implantation.
So sensitive it may be used as early as 6 days before the day of your missed xed period (5 days
before day of expected xed period), any time of day.
The further into the pregnancy you are, the higher the levels of HCG in your urine. This pregnancy dip
strip detects HCG in urine at a concentration of 10 mIU/ml (Milli-International Units) or greater. The
concentration of HCG in non-pregnant women is normally 5.0 mIU/ml. At the time of the last missed
menstrual period, urine HCG levels are about 100 mIU/ml with peak levels of 100,000 to 200,000
mIU/ml seen at the end of the rst trimester.
STORAGE AND STABILITY:
The test kit can be stored at temperature 2°C to 30 °C in the sealed pouch to the date of expiration.
The test kits should be kept away from direct sunlight, moisture and heat.
PRECAUTIONS:
1. FOR IN-VITRO DIAGNOSITC (IVD) USE ONLY, NOT for internal use.
2. Read directions for use carefully before performing this test.
3. Do not use beyond the expiration date.
4. Do not reuse the test strip. Discard it in the dustbin after single use.
5. Do not use the strip if the foil pouch is damaged.
6. Hold the test strip by the handle only (coloured end).
7. Once the foil pouch has been opened, the test strip should be used immediately. Prolonged
exposure to ambient humidity will cause product deterioration.
8. Treat urine samples and used test devices as if they are potentially infectious. Avoid contact with
skin.
9. Keep out of reach of children

TEST PROCEDURE: 1. WHEN CAN I CARRY OUT THE TEST? You can take this pregnancy test from the 6 days before the day of your missed period (5 days before day of expected period), any time of day. 2. SPECIMEN COLLECTION AND HANDLING A urine specimen must be collected in a clean and dry container. The rst urine specimen in the morning is preferred since it generally contains the highest concentration of HCG; however, urine specimens collected at any time of the day may be used. 3. TO CARRY OUT TEST 1. Bring the sealed pouch to room temperature. To begin testing, open the sealed pouch and remove the strip. Do not touch the arrow end and the middle part of the strip. 2. Place the test strip vertically (straight) into the urine sample; make sure the arrows are pointing down. Do not allow the urine surface to go above the MAX (maximum) level line (marked by arrows) on the test strip. 3. Remove the strip from the urine after about 10 seconds and lay the strip on a clean, dry surface. 4. Wait for coloured bands to appear. Depending on the concentration of HCG in the urine specimen, positive results may be observed in as short as 40 seconds. However, to con rm a negative result, the complete reaction time (5 minutes) is required. Do not read results after 10 minutes. 5. Discard the test after use. Put the used test into special container if possible and regard it as if it is infectious. Don’t litter. 4. INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS NEGATIVE: Only one visible coloured band in control region, no coloured band in test region, which indicate the result of the test is negative, no HCG has been detected in the urine. This means you are either not pregnant or you have tested too early. If you are not sure repeat the test in 48 hours. POSITIVE: Two visible coloured bands in both test region and control region, which indicate the result of the test is positive, then this means there is a strong possibility that you are pregnant — HCG has been detected in your urine. One line may be lighter than the other, they do not have to match and this is still a positive result. INVALID: No visible coloured band(s) at all, or only one coloured band in test region, which indicate the kit is invalid. Repeat the test with a new test kit! |
