Abstract Point-of-Care Testing (POCT) devices are increasingly becoming the most commonly used methods for analysing certain biochemical markers. The popularity of these devices is due to their simplicity, being easy to use, on-the-spot analysing and using a lesser quantity of blood compared to the laboratory method. One of the most commonly used POCT devices are Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose (SMBG) devices. These devices are a vital part of life for people diagnosed with diabetes. However, there are critiques about the quality and reliability of SMBG devices, as they are closed systems and there are multiple interfering aspects when measuring glucose. Also, there is a lack of knowledge on how to conduct proper maintenance, internal quality control and how to assess the trueness of the result. It is important to conduct studies, which compare the results of SMBG devices already in use with the results of reference method and assess the quality according to the ISO Standard 15197:2013. This study compared five SMBG devices against a laboratory reference method. The five SMBG devices were the following: three professional glucose meters 7
