Simple finger prick test Lancet included Colour reference card for accurate reading Results in 10 minutes Staying on top of your vitamins Vitamins play a crucial role in maintaining various bodily functions, so deficiencies can lead to a host of health issues, from dry eyes and fatigue to joint pain and impaired cognitive function. This is why it’s essential for individuals to have easy access to self-test kits that allow them to monitor their vitamin levels, so that appropriate action can be taken should a deficiency be detected. At-home vitamin deficiency test kits offer exceptional convenience and efficiency, enabling individuals to monitor their health at a time and place that suits their needs. Vitamin D Deficiency When the winter months approach in the northern hemisphere, fewer hours of daylight are inevitable, leaving many people struggling with a common yet often underestimated health problem: vitamin D deficiency. Due to the lack of sunshine in a country that is hardly renowned for its weather, it is estimated that more than one-quarter of people in the UK suffer from a deficiency in vitamin D in winter, leading to a range of potential consequences including weakened bones, mood changes, and a reduced immune system. How to Accurately Finger-Prick Yourself for Vitamin Deficiency Checking for a vitamin deficiency at home, for example using a vitamin D test, is a simple, painless, and convenient process. However, it’s not uncommon for individuals to feel apprehensive, especially if they are testing for the first time, as they may be concerned about making a mistake or even injuring themselves. Fortunately, once you’ve mastered the technique, your confidence will soar, and conducting vitamin deficiency tests at home will quickly become second nature. So, what steps should you take to ensure an at-home vitamin deficiency test is carried out accurately and safely? Gather the necessary supplies Before you commence the test, ensure you have all the necessary items close at hand. Typically, this will include the test kit, a sterile lancet, an alcohol swab, and any other materials specified in the kit’s instructions. Using the timer function on your phone to time results as well as having everything within reach simplifies the process and reduces any potential stress or confusion. Follow the time guidelines Adherence to time guidelines is crucial to obtain accurate results. Each Suresign test kit will have specific instructions on how long to wait before applying the blood sample to the test card or strip. It’s important not to rush this process. Collect the blood sample as instructed and apply it to the test medium within the recommended timeframe to ensure the integrity of the sample and the accuracy of the test results. Use a sterile lancet The key to a successful finger-prick test is to use the sterile lancet provided in the kit which is designed to make a tiny cut on the side of your fingertip to obtain a blood sample. The side of the fingertip is recommended as it’s less sensitive compared to the fingertip pad, so it is less likely to be painful, even for a moment. Follow the instructions carefully to minimise discomfort and ensure you collect an adequate blood sample for the test to avoid having to repeat the test with a different finger. Prepare the testing site Select a clean, well-lit area in which to perform the test. A kitchen table or a desk in a well-lit room can be ideal. Ensure the surface is clean and flat to set up your testing materials. Wash your hands with warm water to increase blood flow to your fingers, making the blood sample collection easier.

SELFCHECK Prostate Health Test Kit

SELFCHECK Prostate Health Test Kit - Finger-prick blood test - Results in 10 minutes - Test at home - Shows if the level of PSA is higher than normal - 87% agreement with laboratory tests - Assembled in the UK The SELFCHECK Prostate Health Test is a simple way for men to find out whether the level of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in your blood is elevated. Although PSA is regarded as a marker for prostate cancer, a high PSA level is more likely to be due to other problems such as prostatitis, an enlarged prostate or a urine infection. Before you decide to have a PSA test, it is important to be aware that about 3 in 4 men with a raised PSA level will not have cancer and around 1 in 7 men with a normal PSA level will have prostate cancer. Nevertheless, if you have an elevated result, you are encouraged to speak with your doctor. See the pros and cons of PSA testing below. The SELFCHECK Prostate Health Test (PSA Test), is an easy to use finger prick blood spot home test that detects raised levels of prostate specific antigen (PSA) associated with abnormalities of the prostate gland. Health issues related to the prostate gland become more common as men get older. To use your SELFCHECK Prostate Health Test, you will need to use one of the single-use finger prickers supplied to obtain a blood sample, and apply to the lateral flow test cassette. One line on the test cassette results window means a negative result, and two lines means a positive result. - Results in 10 minutes - Over 87% agreement with laboratory PSA tests* - Contains 1 test - Ensure you are aware of the pros and cons of PSA testing before you decide to test. Pros: - it may reassure you if the test result is normal - it can find early signs of cancer, meaning you can get treated early - PSA testing may reduce your risk of dying if you do have cancer Cons: - it can miss some cancers and provide false reassurance - it may lead to unnecessary worry and medical tests if there's no cancer - it cannot tell the difference between slow-growing and fast-growing cancers - it may make you worry by finding a slow-growing cancer that may never cause any problems - In the UK, men over 50 years without symptoms, can request a PSA test from their doctor.
