Lancing Device Clear Tip Is Used For Alternate Site Testing - Infopia GluNEO Lite Instructions For Use Manual

Ventral palm/Dorsal hand
Choose a fleshy area on the palm, below your thumb or
pinky finger. Select a spot without any visible veins and
away from any deep lines, which may cause your blood
sample to smear.
Forearm
Choose a fleshy area of the forearm or upper arm away from bone, visible veins and thick
hairs of the arm. Sometimes there is less blood flow to these areas than to the fingertip.
To help you get enough drops of blood, you may gently massage or apply a heating pad to
the site to increase blood flow.
IMPORTANT
We recommend that you test on your fingertips if you are testing for hypoglycemia (low
blood glucose) or if you are suffering from hypoglycemia unawareness.
