If you have little or no vision, using the tips below may
help you successfully place a blood sample into the
test strip.
Other techniques may work as well, but the following
examples illustrate ways to bring the sample and the
test strip together. Keep experimenting until you find
a technique that consistently works for you.
Tip One - Smaller has its Advantages
Because the Prodigy AutoCode
®
meter is easy to
move around, you can experiment with many different
approaches to determine which works best for you.
Get comfortable holding the meter in one hand while
testing. The meter can be moved towards your finger
as easily as your finger can be moved to the test strip.
Tip Two - Aim for the Tip
The tip of the test strip contains an opening to the
absorbent channel where the blood is applied. When
the tip touches the blood sample, the absorbent chan-
nel draws the blood into the test strip, much like a straw.
Blood should be applied only on the very tip. Blood that
is applied to the bottom or sides of the test strip may
cause inaccurate readings. It is important to not bend the
test strip when attempting to apply the sample.
