A step-by-step guide on how to use Contour T/S testing strips:

  1. Gather supplies: You will need a Contour T/S meter, a Contour T/S testing strip, a lancing device, and an alcohol pad.
  2. Prepare the lancing device: Insert a new lancet into the lancing device and adjust the depth of penetration according to the instructions provided with the device.
  3. Clean your hands: Wash your hands with soap and warm water, then dry them thoroughly.
  4. Clean the test site: Use an alcohol pad to clean the area where you will be testing, such as the fingertip.
  5. Prick your finger: Use the lancing device to prick your finger and collect a small drop of blood.
  6. Apply blood to the test strip: Insert the Contour T/S testing strip into the meter, and wait for the device to display a message indicating that it is ready for the blood sample. Apply the blood sample to the designated area of the testing strip.
  7. Wait for results: The Contour T/S meter will display the blood glucose level within seconds.
  8. Record results: Write down the results in a logbook or on your smartphone app, along with the date and time of the test.
  9. Dispose of used materials: Safely dispose of the used testing strip and lancet, following local guidelines for medical waste disposal.
  10. Repeat: Test your blood glucose levels regularly, as recommended by your healthcare provider, to monitor your diabetes management and make informed decisions about your diet, exercise, and medication.

Note: Always follow the instructions provided with the Contour T/S meter and testing strips, and consult with your healthcare provider if you have any questions or concerns about monitoring your blood glucose levels.
