5 Measuring your blood glucose
Warning
If you drop the lancing device while a needle lancet is inserted, pick it up carefully and
dispose of the lancet.
Important
Use the lancing device only with needle lancets from the manufacturer. Use of other
needle lancets can impair the function of the lancing device.
If the lancing device is manufactured by a third party, consult their instructions for use.
5.1 Acquiring blood samples
Preparing to take the blood sample
1 Choose a site on the body from where you wish to take the blood sample. You can
use the lancing device to take a blood sample from the fingertip or alternative sites
such as the palm of the hand, forearm or upper arm. We recommend that you take
the blood sample from the fingertip. To make the blood sample as pain-free as possi-
ble, do not take the blood directly from the centre of the fingertip, but instead from
slightly to the side of the centre.
Warning
If you suspect hypoglycaemia: be sure to draw blood from the fingertip. This
is because changes in the blood glucose level can be measured quickly in blood
samples from the fingertip.
Measuring from a fingertip and another part of the body (AST) can lead to significantly
different measured values. Always consult your doctor before starting to test at alter-
native sites.
2 Have the following components ready: Measuring device, container of test strips, lan-
cing device, and a sterile needle lancet. If obtaining a blood sample from a site other
than the fingertip, you will also need the AST cap.
3 Before taking the sample, wash your hands using soap and warm water. In addition to
optimal hygienic conditions, this is also ensures good circulation of blood through the
fingertips. Dry your hands carefully. Also ensure that your lancing site is hygienically
clean if taking a blood sample from an alternative site (AST).
Warning
If you wipe the lancing site with alcohol, ensure that the site has dried completely be-
fore beginning the measurement.
