The following steps will show you how to use the meter, test strips, lancing
device and sterile lancets together to measure your blood glucose
concentration.
Step 1 - Getting a Drop of Blood
®
The On Call
Vivid Pal Blood Glucose Monitoring System requires a very
small drop of blood which may be obtained from the fingertip, palm (at base of
the thumb) or forearm. Before testing, choose a clean, dry work surface.
Familiarize yourself with the procedure and make sure you have all the items
needed to obtain a drop of blood.
Important: Prior to testing, wipe the test site with an alcohol swab or soapy
water. Use warm water to increase blood flow if necessary. Then dry your
hands and the test site thoroughly. Make sure there is no alcohol, soap or
lotion on the test site.
