QUICK REFERENCE

B L O O D A P P L I C A T I O N

How you can be sure that you have applied the right amount of blood:

Pink test square is
where you apply a drop
of blood.

White pad absorbs the
excess blood that may
extend beyond the pink
test square. Do not apply
blood directly onto the
white pad.

Confirmation dot onback
of test strip is where you
check to confirm proper
blood application.

Apply a drop of blood to
the centre of the pink
test square on the front
of the test strip. The con-
firmation dot on the
back should be com-
pletely blue for an
accurate test.

If any white patches or
streaks appear on the
blue confirmation dot,
you have not applied
enough blood for an
accurate test. You must
start the test over with a
new test strip to avoid
inaccurately low results.

* Never add a second

drop of blood.

If there is no white visible
on the white pad, you
have applied too much
blood. You must start the
test over with a new test
strip to avoid inaccurate-
ly high results.

* Be careful not to apply

too much blood, espe-
cially if you tend to
bleed easily or are
taking blood-thinning
medications.
