How to increase the accuracy?
Stimulating blood perfusion by rubbing the puncture site prior to blood
extraction has a significant influence on the glucose value obtained.
Blood from the site without rubbing exhibits a measurably different glucose
concentration than blood from the finger. When the puncture site was rubbed
prior to blood extraction, the difference was significantly reduced.
Please follow suggestions below before getting a drop of blood:
Rub the puncture site about 20 seconds before penetration.
Use a clear cap (included in the kit) instead while setting the lancing device.
