To Obtain a Blood Sample
Select the desired depth setting then pull
the plunger (on the end of the device) all
the way down & you hear a click. Then the
device is ready.
Step 5:
Wash your hands & dry them thoroughly.
Hold the lancing device against your finger
tip, then press the release button. The
lancet is released and it penetrates the skin.
Step 6:
Note :
The amount of blood that emerges depends on the penetration depth
and the pressure used to hold the lancing device against the skin.
1.
If not e nough blood emerges, apply more pressure on the lancing device
when you next obtain blood. If that is not sufficient, increase the
penetration depth progressively in addition.
2.
If too much blood emerges, decrease the penetration depth.
3.
Test your blood glucose immediately after you obtained blood,
according to the instructions for use for your blood glucose meter.
4.
You can set the penetration depths
between (1 to 5). The larger the number
provides the greater penetration depth.
Penetration depth depends on the skin
thickness, If you have sensitive skin set a
low penetration depth below 3. Rotate
the lancing device dial until the desired
penetration depth is set.
