Alternate Site Testing (AST) with the transparent cap

You can also gain the blood
sample from other parts of the
body than the finger tip. If
you want to use Alternate Site
Testing, please use the trans-
parent cap for your lancing
device. Carry out the following
steps:
• Gently massage the desired
punctuation site on your
arm or hand for a few sec-
onds. This will improve the
blood circulation.
• Push the lancing device with the transparent cap against the
desired blood collection site and push the trigger button to
gain a sample.
• Exercise a constant pressure until you see through the trans-
parent cap, that enough blood is
gained. After that you can carry
out the blood glucose test, as
usual.
