Important Information About AST: Sites other than your ﬁngertip may have

fewer nerve endings so obtaining a blood sample from these sites may be

less painful. The technique for alternate site testing is different from ﬁngertip

testing. Blood glucose testing results from sites other than your ﬁngertip could

be signiﬁcantly different. Physiological differences in circulation between the

ﬁngertip and palm may result in differences in blood glucose measurements

between these sites. Differences in glucose concentrations may be observed

after eating, taking insulin medication, or exercise and are typically shown

more quickly in the ﬁngertip than in the palm. Consult with your diabetes

healthcare professional prior to testing from a site other than your ﬁngertips.
