4 Simple Steps to Better Health

We’ll walk you through every step of the sample collection process.

1

Measuring Blood Pressure >

  1. Roll up your sleeve to expose the skin. Apply the cuff to your wrist with your palm and the display facing up.
  2. Fasten the cuff around your wrist, leaving no extra room between the cuff and your skin.
  3. Sit upright with both feet flat on the floor, elbow on a table and wrist at heart level. Turn your palm upwards and take 5-6 deep breaths.
  4. Rest for 5 minutes before measuring.
  5. After 5 minutes, press the power button to begin the reading.
  6. For a meaningful comparison, try measuring under similar conditions. For example, take daily measurements at approximately the same time, on the same wrist or as directed by a physician

For issues or questions regarding readings, contact Member Services at 800-362-8671 or MemberServices@ehe.health

Obtaining Blood Sample >

  1. Before the test, hydrate with 16 oz. (two full glasses) of water to help with blood flow.
  2. Heat your hands to get the blood flowing to your entire hand and fingers. You can do this by warming your hands under warm water for one minute.
  3. Move your body to get your blood flowing even more. We recommend two minutes of exercise—jumping jacks, squats, high knees, or whatever you’re most comfortable with. If you have a smart watch or heart monitor, we recommend getting your heart rate above100 beats per minute.
  4. Time to prepare to prick your finger. We recommend using your ring finger as it is usually the least calloused. Wipe your finger with the provided alcohol swab. Remove the collection device and place it face up on the table, ensuring you don’t touch the collection material.
  5. Twist and remove the cap on your lancet.
  6. Apply the lancet on either side of your finger, pressing it into the skin until you hear a click.
  7. Massage (don’t squeeze) to increase blood flow.
  8. Drop your blood onto the square indicated on the collection device. Fill the collection device to the first line indicated on the strip.
  9. Allow your sample to air dry for two hours on a flat surface before placing in the foil envelope.
3

Measuring Waist Circumference >

You’ll need to measure your waist circumference for a questionnaire later in the process. Follow the CDC’s guidelines for an accurate waist measurement:

  1. Stand and place a tape measure around your midsection, just above your hipbones.
  2. Make sure tape is flat and horizontal around the waist.
  3. Keep the tape snug around the waist, but not so much that it’s compressing the skin.
  4. Measure your waist just after you breathe out and take note of the measurement number.
4

Record Biometrics >

Fill out the Biometrics Card included in your lab kit. Do not ship this card, you will use it during your consult with a clinician.

Shipping Your Samples

Your kit contains a prepaid shipping label and courier instructions. Drop off your completed home test at the nearest USPS location on the same day you take your test. (You can view USPS drop-off locations and hours here.)

In 2-3 business days, the lab will receive your sample. Then, we’ll email you when your results are available and ready to review with an EHE Health clinician.

Preparing for the test

First, let’s get you hydrated

We want to make sure you are well hydrated prior to taking the test. This will help with blood flow when you collect your sample.

Please drink 16oz (or two full glasses) of water.

Now that you're hydrated

We’ll offer some hand warming tips to open up your capillaries.

Continue to hand warming

Preparing for the test

Now, let’s get your hands warmed up

Ensure your hands are warmed up as much as possible. Warm water will help open up your capillaries and get your blood flowing.

Run your hands under warm water for one minute.

Feel free to use our one-minute timer.

All warmed up? Good!

Next, you’ll get a quick exercise in to ensure your blood flow is as optimal as possible.

Continue to exercise

Preparing for the test

Time to get your blood flowing

Do some moderate exercise for two minutes. We recommend doing some quick jumping jacks, but do whatever exercise you are comfortable with. If you have a smart watch or a heart monitor, we recommend getting your heart rate above 100 beats per minute.

Try one (or more) of the following exercises:

1 minute of squats
2 minutes of jumping jacks
2 minutes of high knees

Feel free to use our two-minute timer.

You’re nearly there

Now it's time to prepare your finger for the sample collection.

Continue to preparation

Preparing for the test

Before you prick your finger

Let’s prepare to get the best results possible.

You will need to do the following:

  • We recommend using your “ring” finger as this finger is usually the least calloused.

  • Wipe your finger with the provided alcohol swab.


  • Remove the microtube cap.


  • Twist and remove the cap on your lancet. It is now ready to use.

Once you are ready

We’ll show you how to collect your sample.

I am ready to use the lancet

Taking the test

Now apply the lancet

Be patient and take your time! This process should only take a few minutes.

You will need to do the following:

  • Apply the lancet on either side of your finger.


  • Press the lancet into your finger until you hear a click.


  • Massage (don't squeeze) your finger to increase blood flow.

Here is what to look for

Your test requires 250 microliters of blood (fill to the line indicated on your microtube)

Perfect sample

An ideal sample will be filled to the 250 microliter line.

Not enough blood

Massage (don’t squeeze) a few more drops from the base of your finger to your second knuckle. Use another lancet, if needed.

Blood in wrong end

Insert the blood in the larger end of the tube.

If your sample looks incorrect, please do not return your sample. Email support@imaware.health

Once your sample looks correct

Let’s walk you through some important steps before you can return your sample!

Prepare for sample collection

Collecting a blood sample at home is easy when you’re prepared. Follow these steps to get a good sample:

Lay out your kit

Sample collection is fast, so make sure you have everything ready to go in front of you.

Take off your rings

Your blood vessels need to be unobstructed, so please remove any rings you’re wearing.

Drink lots of water

Drink at least one large glass of water to ensure you collect the volume of blood required.

Get your blood flowing

Get your heart pumping to 100 beats per minute to increase blood flow and deliver the volume you need.

Choose exercises suited to your abilities, or try these:

1 minute of squats
2 minutes of jumping jacks
2 minutes of high knees

Wash your hands under water as hot as you can tolerate for 60 seconds

Hot water opens the blood vessels in your hands, making it easy to draw out enough blood.

Have you followed the steps above? When all the boxes are checked, you're ready to continue.

Collect your sample

Now that you’re ready for the test, it’s time to take it! Follow the video below to collect your sample.

Some important do’s and don’ts

Having trouble? These tips will help:

Do's

Point your finger down while massaging your palm.
Wipe the insertion point after every 2-3 drops to keep it open.
Use a second lancet, if needed.

Dont's

Squeeze your fingertip; this will damage your blood cells and may compromise your sample.
Get frustrated; another lancet is there if you need it.
