Overview
Use a flashlight to apply gauze or a cotton ball behind the ear for a stable, more practical surface when checking the marginal ear vein, you can get a clearer view of the vein. Choose a spot on the side of the paw (where pets would not tread) to test the paw pad. Stimulate blood flow by lightly touching the testing location to warm it up before lancing. Apply a warm towel, a rice-filled bag, or a sock to the affected area. Applying a very small layer of petroleum jelly onto the testing site before lancing will aid in the production of blood droplets. The test will commence automatically after a sufficient amount of blood has been added to the test strip. Within 1 minute, more blood can be added to the strip as needed.
