Photo of G4 a needle point showing the 270 degree cutting edge that encapsulate the sensor when inserted into the skin. Think of how many needle points would fit on that edge and you will easily understand the increased impact area to vessels under the skin. Simply replace a bleeder as it will happen randomly and request replacement an it has nothing at all to do with the "way you do it" as is just chance.G4Needle.jpg
