Beurer GL44 mg/dL 19

You may now use the lancing aid to take a blood sample. Please en-

sure that the blood remains a droplet and is not spread. Immediately

use the blood droplet to take a measurement.

Blood sample from the ﬁngertip

The best penetration areas are the middle ﬁnger and

the ring ﬁnger. Firmly position the lancing aid slightly

to the side of the centre of the ﬁngertip. Press the

trigger. Remove the lancing aid 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 samples from other body parts (AST)

Find a soft area away from bones, without any visible blood vessels

and with as little hair as possible. Warm the penetration area to en-

hance circulation by gently massaging the area. Press and hold the

lancing aid against the penetration area for a few seconds and sub-

sequently press the trigger.

Continue to hold the lancing aid against the skin until a round drop

of blood has formed under 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 lift the lancing aid o the skin.

Note

Only take blood from other areas at the following times:

•

On an empty stomach (more than two hours after most recent meal).

•

At least two hours after administration of insulin.

•

At least two hours after physical activity.

Please also note the following:

•

If the blood glucose test results do not match how you feel, carry out another test using blood

from the ﬁngertips.

•

DO NOT change your treatment purely on the basis of a measurement that was carried out

using blood taken from an alternative area. Carry out another test with blood from the ﬁnger-

tips in order to conﬁrm the test result.

•

If you often fail to notice that you have a low blood glucose level, carry out a test using blood

from the ﬁngertips.

If there is an insucient amount of blood, repeat steps 1 to 12 with a greater penetration depth.

Note

When using the AST cap, repeat measurement at dierent parts of the body.
