Step 3: Wash Your Hands.
Use warm, soapy water. Rinse and
dry hands thoroughly. To increase
blood flow to your fingertips,
massage the hand from the wrist
to the fingertip two or three times
without touching the puncture site.
Step 4: Lance Your Finger.
Choose a spot on the side of a
different finger each time you test.
Repeated punctures in the same
spot may cause soreness and
calluses. Hold the Penlet
® Plus
Sampler firmly against the side
of your finger. Press the release
button. (Greater pressure of the
device against the finger will also
cause a deeper puncture.)
