Notes
Use a new lancet each time you obtain blood. This not only
reduces the risk of infection but also helps ensure virtually pain-
free blood sampling.
Do not prime the lancing device until you are ready to collect
blood. Keeping the lancing device in this primed state can cause
parts to become misshapen through tension, impairing its
operation.
The amount of blood that emerges at the puncture site depends
i
on the penetration setting and the pressure used to hold the
lancing device against the skin. If the amount of blood you obtain
is too small, try again, applying more pressure this time. If you
still obtain insufficient blood, repeat the procedure with
progressively deeper settings. If too much blood emerges, reduce
the penetration depth.
