Collecting Blood Samples
How to Obtain a Capillary Blood Sample (For Glucose or Ketone Testing):
• Only auto-disabling single use lancing devices should be used.
• Use a new pair of clean gloves for each patient.
• Use only fresh whole blood samples.
• Make sure that the sampling site is clean and dry before lancing.
• Collect the capillary blood using an auto-disabling, single use lancing device and an appropriate
technique.
• Apply a drop of blood to the target area at the end of the test strip.
• If necessary, blood can be collected in a capillary tube coated with heparin or EDTA, and then be
applied to the test strip within 30 minutes of collection. Mix the blood specimen well immediately
before applying the sample to the target area of the test strip.
