Fasting blood glucose test process

Detection was performed using venous blood. Before venous blood collection, carefully check whether the needle is firmly installed and whether there is air and moisture in the syringe. The needle used should be sharp, smooth and ventilated, and the syringe should not leak. First use a 30g / L iodine tincture cotton swab to disinfect the skin clockwise from the inside to the outside of the selected venipuncture point. After the iodine tincture evaporates, use a 75% ethanol cotton swab to wipe the iodine traces in the same way. Use the left thumb to fix the lower end of the venipuncture point, the right thumb and middle finger to hold the syringe barrel, and the index finger to fix the lower seat of the needle so that the bevel of the needle and the scale of the syringe are upward. , Then penetrate the vein wall forward into the vein cavity at a 5 ° angle. After seeing the blood return, probe the needle a little bit in order to prevent the needle from slipping out during blood collection; however, do not use deep puncture to avoid hematoma, and at the same time remove the pressure vein band. The needle plug can only be withdrawn externally, and it cannot be pushed in, so as to prevent the injection of air into the vein to form an air plug, which will cause serious consequences. Remove the syringe needle and slowly inject blood into the anticoagulation tube along the wall of the test tube to prevent hemolysis and foam generation.
