Finger-Stick Testing

This is a do-it-yourself test using a blood glucose meter that measures your blood sugar at the time you test. It's necessary to 'stick' yourself to obtain blood for the test. Because it's hard for people to take blood samples, scientists are studying ways to get a blood sample without a skin puncture. Infrared light is being looked at and so is measuring glucose through saliva or tears. There's also a possibility that sweat can be drawn through the skin using a low-level electrical current.

Explanation:
Mjerenje nivoa glukoze (secera) u krvi ubodom u prst.


Ne bi bilo zgoreg da date malo vise konteksta, ali naslucujem da se radi o aparatu (aparaticu) pomocu kojeg dijabeticar sam sebi mjeri secer.

Asker: Nažalost i nema više konteksta, to se navodi kao metoda za dijagnozu hipoglikemije
