Testing with Blood from Alternative Sites
With the ACCU-CHEK Compact system, you have the option to use blood
from an alternative site (palm, forearm, upper arm, thigh, or calf) in addition
to blood taken from your fingertip. Although blood from your fingertip may
be tested at any time, there are times when testing from alternative sites is
not ideal. Before you begin testing areas other than your fingertip, please
read this section to understand which option is right for you.
Before you begin testing using alternative sites, please:
• Talk with your doctor
• Read the Notes section below
Notes:
• Because your fingertip has more blood vessels, your fingertip and
alternative site test results may be different.
