For individuals aiming to assess their hCG level for pregnancy confirmation, a result equal to or exceeding 25 IU\/L signifies a positive pregnancy indication.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

BABYCHECK-1\u00aeWB test is a manual qualitative immunochromatographic screening test for the detection of hCG (human Chorionic Gonadotropin) in women finger prick blood sample. It can be used at home by lay users for self-testing for the detection of pregnancy.
While pregnancy can be detected in urine about 1 week after a missed period<\/strong>, blood testing can detect pregnancy as early as 10 days after impregnation.<\/strong><\/p>

Pregnancy blood tests are also known to be more accurate than urine tests. This is the reason why blood\/serum pregnancy tests are widely used in laboratories\/hospitals. In addition, the volume of ingested liquids which may affect the urine test results (dilution of hCG) is not affecting a blood test.<\/p>

The test accuracy is indeed very important as a pregnancy necessarily implies precautions as well as a change in lifestyle such as stopping smoking or drinking alcohol, reducing or even eliminating medications as well as certain foods.
In only 5 minutes, it is possible to detect an hCG concentration of 25 IU\/L or higher.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

  1. Wash your hands thoroughly. Use soap and warm water.<\/strong> Dry your hand with clean towel.<\/li>
  2. Prepare the test device and capillary pipette:<\/strong> Take them out from the protective pouch (tear at the notch) and place them in the reach of your hands (you will need them later). Discard the desiccant bag.<\/li>
  3. Prepare the lancet.<\/strong> Hold the lancet without touching the trigger button. Unlock the cap twisting it off \u00bc turn until you feel it separates from the lancet and then continue twisting it (2-3 rotations). Don\u2019t pull just twist and discard the cap when finished. \u2460\u2461<\/li>
  4. Clean the end of the middle or ring finger<\/strong> with cotton damped with alcohol. Massage the chosen finger towards the tip for 10 to 15 seconds to enhance the blood flow.<\/li>
  5. Prick the finger:<\/strong> put the lancet firmly against the side of the previously cleaned finger, and press the release trigger button.\u2462 The lancet will automatically retract into the body of the device. Gently massage the finger to create a nice round blood droplet.\u2463<\/li>
  6. Collect the blood with the capillary pipette:<\/strong> Gently touch the blood droplet with the open end of the capillary pipette. It must be filled until the line indicated on the capillary pipette. Do not press the bulb, it fills by itself. Make another blood droplet if the line is not reached. As far as possible, avoid air bubbles. \u2464<\/li>
  7. Put the blood collected with the pipette into the sample well<\/strong> of the device, by pressing on the pipette bulb. \u2465<\/li>
  8. Wait 30-40 sec<\/strong> for the blood being totally absorbed into the sample well.<\/li>
  9. Add the diluent:<\/strong> Unscrew the blue cap of the diluent dropper vial (leave the white cap tightly screwed) and add the diluent as follows: Hold the diluent dropper vial vertically and slowly add exactly 4 drops<\/strong> in the sample well of the device with an interval of 2-3 seconds between each drop. \u2466<\/li>
  10. Read the result after 5 minutes. Do not interpret after 10 minutes.<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
