Frt - blood ferritin rapid test

Product Description

In vitro diagnostic medical device CE 0123.

Indications

The Ferritin Rapid Test is a test for the qualitative detection of ferritin in human blood by fingerstick for iron deficiency anemia.

For in vitro self-diagnostic use only.

Directions for use

1. Wash your hands with soap and rinse with clean, warm water.
2. Bring the package to room temperature before opening. Open the sealed package and remove the device.
3. Gently pull and discard the protective cap from the lancet.
4. Use the alcohol swab provided to clean the tip of your middle finger, where the puncture site was located.
5. Press the lancet, on the side where the cap was removed, against the tip of your finger (the side of your ring finger is recommended). The tip automatically and safely retracts after use.
6. Holding your hand facing down, massage the puncture site to obtain a drop of blood.
7. Without squeezing the bulb of the capillary dropper, bring it into contact with the blood. The blood will migrate into the capillary dropper up to the line indicated on the dropper. You can massage your finger again to obtain more blood if the line is not reached. Try to avoid the formation of air bubbles as much as possible.
8. Dispense the collected blood into the sample well of the device by squeezing the bulb of the dropper.
9. Wait until the blood has completely flowed into the well. Unscrew the cap of the buffer bottle and add 1 drop of buffer to the sample well of the device.
10. Wait for the colored line(s) to appear. Read results after 5 minutes.
Do not interpret results after 10 minutes.
