Lancing to take a blood sample
The lancing device can now be used to take a blood sample.
Make sure that the blood remains as a droplet and is not spread.
- Blood sample from the fingertip
Firmly position the lancing device slightly to the side of the centre
of the fingertip. Press the trigger. Remove the lancing device from
the finger. A round drop of blood of at least 0.6 microlitres (cor-
responds to approx. 1.4 mm, original size: ) must have formed.
- Blood sample from other body parts (AST)
Find a soft area away from any bones, without any visible blood
vessels and with as little hair as possible. Warm the penetration
area to enhance circulation by gently massaging the area. Press
and hold the lancing device against the penetration area for a few
seconds and then press the trigger. Continue to hold the lancing
device against the skin until a round drop of blood has formed un-
der the cap. Maintain the pressure until the drop of blood reaches
a size of at least 0.6 microlitres (corresponds to approx. 1.4 mm,
original size: ). Carefully remove the lancing device from the skin.
