Using the Lancing Device

You will need a lancing device in order to collect a blood sample. 

You may use the lancing device contained in the e-CheKer Blood 

Glucose Monitoring System or any other medically approved 

lancing device.

  

  

 The lancing device should be used by one individual and 

communal use is strongly discouraged.

  

  

    Use a soft cloth or tissue to wipe the lancing device.

     If necessary, a small amount of alcohol on a soft cloth or 

tissue may be used.

To avoid infection when drawing a sample, use a lancet 

only

 one time, and:   

  

  

 Do not use a lancet that has been used by others.

  

  

 Always use a new sterile lancet.

  

  

 Keep the lancing device clean.

Helpful Tip
Repeated puncturing at the same sample site may cause pain 

or skin calluses. Choose a different site each time you test.

Out of Range Result Factors

If your control solution test results do not fall within the 

range printed on the test strip bottle, repeat the test. Out of 

range results may be due to one or more of the following 

factors:

  

  

 Error in performing the test.

  

  

Expired or contaminated control solution.

  

  

Expired or damaged test strip.

  

  

Mismatched meter and test strip bottle code numbers.

  

  

Failure to shake bottle.

  

  

  Failure to discard first drop of control solution and wipe bottle 

tip clean.

If results continue to fall outside the range printed on 

the bottle, the e-CheKer Test Strip and e-CheKer Meter 

may not be working together properly. If so, do 

not

 use 

your system, please contact your authorized i-SENS 

sales representative.
