Using the Lancing Device
You will need a lancing device in order to collect a blood sample.
You may use the lancing device contained in the CareSens LINK
Blood Glucose Monitoring System or any other medically approved
lancing device.
• The lancing device should be used by one individual and communal
use is strongly discouraged.
• Use a soft cloth or tissue to wipe the lancing device. If necessary, a
small amount of alcohol on a soft cloth or tissue may be used.
To avoid infection when drawing a sample, use a lancet only one
time, and:
• Do not use a lancet that has been used by others.
• Always use a new sterile lancet.
• Keep the lancing device clean.
Caution
Repeated puncturing at the same sample site may cause pain or
skin calluses. Choose a different site each time you test.
