When to use AST?
Food, medication, illness, stress and exercise
can affect blood glucose levels. Capillary blood
at the ngertip reects these changes faster than
capillary blood at other sites. Thus, when testing
blood glucose during or immediately after a meal,
physical exercise, or any other event, take a blood
sample from your nger only.
We strongly recommend that you perform AST
ONLY at the following times:
● In a pre-meal or fasting state (more than 2 hours
since the last meal).
● Two hours or more after taking insulin.
● Two hours or more after exercise.
Do NOT use AST if:
● You think your blood glucose is low.
● You are unaware of hypoglycemia
● You are testing for hyperglycemia
● Your AST results do not match the way you feel.
● Your routine glucose results often uctuate.
Alternative Site Testing (AST)
AST function can provide you to test the
blood glucose other than the fingertips.
