Applying Blood Sample to Test Strip

Obtain a drop of blood. Capillary blood can be
obtained from puncturing the finger or heel
using a lancing device. The puncture site
should be cleaned and thoroughly dried before
obtaining the sample. Follow your institution’s
policy and procedure guidelines for blood
collection.
