Performing a Blood Glucose Test with Blood from Your Palm
(Alternate Site Testing, or AST)
WARNING
• During normal testing any blood glucose meter or lancing device may come in contact with
blood. All parts of the kit are considered biohazardous and can potentially transmit infectious
diseases from bloodborne pathogens, even after you have performed cleaning and disinfection.
• Cleaning and disinfecting the meter and lancing device destroys most, but not necessarily all,
bloodborne pathogens.

• The meter and lancing device should never be used by more than one person. Do not share the
meter and lancing device with anyone, including family members, due to the risk of infection
from bloodborne pathogens.
• If the meter is being operated by a second person who is providing testing assistance to the
user, the meter and lancing device should be cleaned and disinfected prior to use by the second
person.
• Disinfect the meter and lancing device before allowing anyone else to handle them. Do not allow
anyone else to test with the meter or lancing device.
• It is important to keep the meter and lancing device clean and disinfected. For instructions on
how to clean and disinfect the meter and lancing device, see Chapter 5 "Cleaning and
Disinfecting the Meter and Lancing Device."
• Wash hands thoroughly before and after handling the meter, lancing device, or test strips.
