HOW TO TAKE A BLOOD TEST AT HOME

AVOIDING COMMON ISSUES

INSUFFICIENT BLOOD

Warm your hands before you start. Stand up while collecting the blood. Hold your arm down so gravity does its thing. Gently milk your finger

 

DAMAGED BLOOD

Try not to squeeze too hard as it can damage the the blood cells. Use a new lancet on another finger to keep blood flowing naturally

 

BLOOD CLOTTING

Make sure you post your samples close to the time of collection. Avoid hot days and posting before a long holiday weekend

 

This is an important test to measure the health of your heart.

A B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) test is a blood test. It measures the levels of a certain type of hormone in your blood called a B-type natriuretic peptide.

Higher-than-normal levels of BNP in your blood can be a sign that your heart isn’t working as it should. It can mean that your heart isn’t pumping enough blood through your body. Since BNP is cleared by your kidneys, it may also mean that your kidneys are not functioning properly.

Symptoms of heart failure can include:
  • Cough that seems dry and gets worse when laying down
  • Difficulty breathing, shortness of breath or wheezing
  • Delirium (confusion)
  • Dizziness or fainting
  • Fatigue or feeling sluggish
  • Heart palpitations
  • Nausea and vomiting or loss of appetite
  • Swelling in your abdomen, legs, ankles and feet
  • Urinating more than usual at night
  • Heart failure means your heart isn’t pumping blood as it should. It doesn’t mean that your heart has failed or stopped working entirely.

    If you have any concerns about the health of your heart you should seek professional medical help immediately

    Brain Natriuretic Peptide

    A Brain Natriuretic Peptide(BNP) test measures levels of a protein called BNP that is made by your heart and blood vessels. BNP can therefore be an important clinical marker for the diagnosis of heart health and failure.
