Abbott FreeStyle LibrePro - Applying the Sensor

Applying the Sensor
Step
Action
1
Apply Sensors only on the back of your patient’s
upper arm. Avoid areas with scars, moles, stretch
marks, or lumps.
Select an area of skin that generally stays at
during normal daily activities (no bending or
folding). Choose a site that is at least 1 inch
(2.5 cm) away from an insulin injection site.
To prevent discomfort or skin irritation, you
should select a dierent site other than the
one most recently used.
2
Clean application site with an alcohol wipe and
allow site to dry before proceeding. This helps
the Sensor stay attached to the body.
Note: The area MUST be clean and dry, or the
Sensor may not stick to the site.
