How to minimize needlestick pain in children  

Finger prick testing is a quick and easy method for taking small samples of blood. This is why pediatricians still use capillary blood collection as the method of choice for obtaining blood samples from children. Doctors report that micro sampling “keeps kids calm, parents relaxed, and laboratory technicians sane”. Nonetheless, it is important to remember that children have a very different emotional reaction to pain than adults do, and for some kids it can still be a scary experience.   

Tips! If you have a doctor's visit with planned blood test included - ask your doctor to draw extra blood and to drip it on the test card. 

Where to poke the finger?

Where to poke the finger?

Please, note: 
It is important not to prick the centre of the finger tip, as the blood flow is weaker.This might be painful. Likewise, the thumb is not recommended for capillary blood collection.


RecommendationsArrow
If you want more information before taking a blood sample, here are some advice.
  • It is important to be calm and relaxed, have plenty of time for the task and to be warm in the body. If you feel frozen, a hot shower can be a good start. If you do not have the opportunity for a shower you may want to keep your hands and wrists under warm water for 30-60 seconds when you wash them and circle the arm longer than advised. Make sure to drink a lot of water the day before, it supports a successful blood collection!
  • Try to place the lancet at an angle to your finger so that as much tissue as possible is "injured" and correspondingly more blood emerges. According to our customers the best finger for blood sampling is from your middle finger of the left hand. 
  • Place your hand on the table top, press the lancet as firmly as you can on the side of the finger. This way you get deeper into the tissue with the lancet. You can also easily retract the skin of your finger after the puncture so that the wound opens a little. Now remember to encourage blood flow by standing up and hold your hand below the heart. 
  • Gently massage your finger from the palm of your hand to your fingertip until a drop of blood forms. Be patience! Try to be relaxed and if you feel tense in your body, close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. Let the drop become so heavy that it falls by itself, then the drop will fill the whole circle. Good luck!
