The finger prick home test: 2 methods

Finger prick tests can be performed in two ways: capillary blood sampling and Dried Blood Spot (DBS). Both ways of finger pricking you can perform yourself at home.

Capillary Blood Lancing in Tube

Because more blood is collected than with the DBS method, the laboratory can usually analyze the blood better and more reliably.

Dried Blood Spot (DBS).

The Dried Blood Spot (DBS) method of finger pricking involves taking blood at home, letting it dry on filter paper and then sending it in for analysis.

For both methods of blood sampling, it is nice that you can do it at home but because you have to squeeze the blood from your finger, the blood cells can be damaged which can make the results less reliable. In addition, some people find it quite difficult to squeeze enough blood out of their finger and sometimes the collection fails because of this to either order a new test or to go to a clinic for a collection through the vein after all.
