NOTE:
• Rubbing forearm until warm before lancing will help minimize the
difference with fingertip test results. The palm (at the base of the
thumb) does not require rubbing before testing.
• If results from alternate site testing do not agree with how you feel,
use fingertip testing instead.
PERFORMING ALTERNATE SITE TESTING (AST):
Step 1:
Set up the lancing device (see page 30, Preparing Lancing Device).
Step 2:
Wash hands with soap and warm water. Rinse and dry hands
thoroughly.
Step 3:
For testing on palm and forearm: Hold the lancing
device (use the clear cap) against the test site
(base of palm or forearm). Avoid a test site that
has veins, moles, excessive hair, or bone. Press
the lancing device firmly against the test site and
press the button located in the middle of the
lancing device, do not remove the device from
your arm.
Applying pressure, press down and release
with out braking the suction until blood drop
is approximately 1μL in size is brought to the
surface or blood drop is visible.
