Please follow the suggestions below before obtaining a drop
of blood:
● Rub the puncture site for about 20 seconds before penetration.
● Use a clear cap while setting the lancing device for AST.
Wash and dry your hands before starting.
● Select the puncture site either at the fingertips or another
body part (please see section “Alternative Site Testing”
(AST) on how to select the appropriate sites).
● Clean the puncture site using cotton moistened with 70%
alcohol and let it air dry.
Fingertip testing
Hold the lancing device firmly against the side
of your finger. Press the release button. You
will hear a click, indicating that the puncture
is complete.
Blood from sites other than the fingertip
A clear cap, together with the kit, makes it
easier to get a drop of blood for AST. When
you want to obtain blood from sites other
than the finger, replace the lancing device
cap with the clear cap. Turn the clear cap
until it is snug but not too tight, and then
slide the cocking control back until it clicks.
Choose a different spot each time you test. Repeated
punctures at the same spot may cause soreness and calluses.
