While AST may reduce the pain during testing, it may not be simple for everyone and the following precautions should be observed during testing. You should consult with your doctor before using alternate site testing. Things to know when using AST Please understand the following informationbefore testing outside of the fingertip (palm, arms, thighs, or calves). The capillary blood of the fingertip shows the change in glucose more rapidly than AST. Therefore, the test results from the fingertip test and AST may differ. This might caused by lifestyle or ingested food have an effect on glucose levels. www.i-sens.com 39 Acceptable situation for AST • Fasting period • Before a meal • Before sleeping Situation requiring fingertip test • • When the glucose levels are rapidly increasing during the two hours after a meal or exercise • When sick or when glucose levels seem quite lower than test value • When hypoglycemia is not well recognized • When insulin has the biggest effect 2 hours after an insulin injection • AST Precautions • • • • • Do not ignore the symptoms of hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia. When the results of the test do not reflect one’s opinion, retest using the fingertip test. If the test results do not reflect one’s opinion, please consult a doctor. Do not rely on the AST results for changing one’s treatment method The amount glucose in alternative sites differs from person to person Before using AST, please consult your regular physician www.i-sens.com 40 Note: Results from alternative site and fingertip samples may appear differently as there is a time lag for the glucose levels to reach the same value. Use a fingertip for drawing if you suffer from hypoglycemia or have experienced hypoglycemic shock or symptoms. drawing if you suffer from hypoglycemia or have experienced hypoglycemic shock or symptoms.
