Preparing the Lancing Device for Blood Testing
Please follow the instructions in the lancing device insert for collecting a
blood sample.
Preparing the Puncture Site
Stimulating blood perfusion by rubbing the puncture site before blood
extraction has a significant influence on the glucose value obtained.
Blood from a site that has not been rubbed exhibits a measurably
different glucose concentration than blood from the finger. When the
puncture site was rubbed prior to blood extraction, the difference was
significantly reduced.
Please follow the suggestions below before obtaining a drop of blood:
●
Wash and dry your hands before starting. Put on a new pair of
gloves.
● Select the puncture site at fingertips
● Clean the puncture site using cotton moistened with 70% alcohol and
let it air dry
.
● Rub the puncture site for about 20 seconds before penetration.
