USER INSTRUCTIONS:

the collection card with the barcode on the front.
• Register the test kit at omegaquant.com/start
using the barcode on the collection card. You will
NOT receive your results unless it is registered.
• Fill out information requested on the collection card.
• Prepare for fingerprick by improving blood flow by
washing your hands in warm water and standing up and
shaking your hand at your side.
• Clean the tip of the finger (index, middle, or ring)
with the alcohol wipe. Allow alcohol to dry unassisted.
• Twist off the blue protective lancet cover. Place the
lancet lightly on the tip of your clean finger and press
downward firmly into your finger until a click is heard.
• Wipe away the first show of blood with gauze.
• Gently squeeze the finger to allow a blood drop to form.
This can take 15-30 seconds – be patient.
• Let the blood drop off your finger onto the
collection card into the center circle.
• When the blood spot is collected, apply pressure to the
finger with the gauze pad and bandage the prick site.
• Let the blood spot dry with the flap open for several
minutes. Fold the flap on the collection card over to cover
the dried blood spot.
• Place the sample collection card in the plastic bag and
seal the bag. Place this bag in the pre-paid return mail
envelope, then mail on the same day.
• Discard the lancet and other supplies in the trash.
