Fingerstick Glucose Meter
A fingerstick glucose meter is a portable device used to measure blood sugar levels quickly and accurately. It requires a small blood sample obtained by pricking the fingertip with a tiny lancet. The blood is placed on a test strip inserted into the device, which then displays the glucose reading. This tool is commonly used by people with diabetes to monitor their blood sugar throughout the day, helping them manage their condition and make informed decisions about diet, medication, and activity. It’s a reliable, convenient method for regular blood sugar testing outside of clinical settings.
