The Digivibe Injection Kit includes:

Safety Information

Sonic Tip Installation / Removal

⚠️ Before handling the Sonic Tip, wash your hands thoroughly with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry hands completely.

Install the Sonic tip onto the Digivibe device by aligning the dot located at the base of the Sonic tip with the triangle located on the Digivibe handle. Push the tip down until you hear a click.

To remove, turn the Sonic tip 1¼ turn counterclockwise and lift.

Battery Installation/Removal

Open the battery cover by pressing and lifting the latch located at the bottom rear of the device. After installing or removing the AA battery, reinstall the battery cover properly.

Lancing Device Setup

⚠️ Before handling your lancing device, wash your hands thoroughly with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry hands completely.

  1. Remove the lancing device cap by turning it counterclockwise and then pulling it straight up from the device.
  2. Insert a sterile lancet into the grooves of the lancet holder. Push the lancet into the device until it is fully seated in the holder. Twist the protective cover until it separates and save it for the removal and disposal of the used lancet.
  3. Place the lancing device cap back onto the device; gently turn clockwise to secure the cap. Do not overtighten.
  4. Adjust the depth setting of the lancing device by turning the wheel to the desired depth. Minimum starting from 1 and maximum ending at 5. A shallower puncture works for children and most adults.
  5. Cock the lancing device trigger by sliding the device back until it clicks. If it does not click, it might have already been cocked. The device is now ready to use.

Removing the Used Lancet

  1. Remove the cap by turning it counterclockwise and then pulling it straight up from the device.
  2. Before removing the lancet, place the lancet protective cover on a hard surface, then push the lancet tip into the cupped side of the cover.
  3. After securing the tip of the lancet with its cover, remove the lancet by gently pulling away from the lancet device.
  4. Place the cap back onto the device; turn clockwise to secure the cap. Do not overtighten. It is important to use a new lancet each time you obtain a blood sample. This will help prevent infections.
  5. Discard the used lancet carefully after each use to avoid unintended lancet stick injuries. Used lancets may be considered bio-hazardous waste. Follow your healthcare professional's recommendations or local regulations for proper disposal. Wash hands thoroughly with warm soapy water after handling the Digivibe device, lancets, lancing device, and cap.

Cleaning your Lancing Device

The lancing device and cap should be disinfected after each use.

First, clean your lancing device and cap with warm soapy water prior to disinfecting. Use a new germicidal wipe to rub or swab the outside of the lancing device until the surface is damp. Wipe dry with clean, sterile gauze. Wash your hands thoroughly with warm soapy water after handling the Digivibe and lancing device.

Taking a Glucose Test (Hand Held) - Patient, Parent

Purpose: The Digivibe device is designed to reduce the perception of pain during capillary blood sampling (fingerstick) through controlled vibration. This instruction outlines the proper use of the device prior to and during lancing for glucose monitoring.

Materials Needed:

  1. Device Activation: Press the power button on the Digivibe to activate vibration.
  2. Finger Positioning: Hold the device securely in one hand. Place the target finger either on top of or beneath the vibrating sonic tip, ensuring firm contact.
  3. Pre-Lancing Vibration: Maintain finger contact on the vibrating tip for the recommended duration (see Vibration Chart below) prior to performing the fingerstick.

Vibration Timing Guidelines

Lancet Gauge Vibration (Prior to Lancing)
28-30 gauge 15 seconds
23-27 gauge 20 seconds
  1. Lancing procedure: While vibration is ongoing and the finger remains in place, apply the lancing device directly over the center of the vibrating tip. Ensure the lancet contacts the intended area of the finger and activate the device to obtain the blood sample.

Safety Notes:

Taking a Glucose Test (Hands Free) - Patient, Parent

Purpose: The Digivibe device is designed to reduce the perception of pain during capillary blood sampling (fingerstick) through controlled vibration. This hands-free protocol uses the Digivibe stand for stability and ease of use.

Materials Needed:

  1. Prepare the Surface: Select a flat, clean surface to place the Digivibe stand. Secure the stand by pressing the suction activation button through the center of the stand using your thumb. Ensure the base is firmly suctioned to the surface.
  2. Insert the Digivibe: Place the Digivibe device into the holder on the stand so that the vibrating tip is positioned horizontally and accessible for finger placement.
  3. Activate the Device: Press the power button on the Digivibe to begin vibration.
  4. Pre-Lancing Vibration: Place your target finger under the vibrating tip so that it makes firm, stable contact. Maintain contact for the recommended vibration time based on needle gauge (see chart below).

Vibration Chart

Lancet Size Vibration Time
28-30 gauge 15 seconds
23-27 gauge 20 seconds
  1. Perform the Fingerstick: While your finger remains in contact with the vibrating tip and vibration is active: Align the lancing device with the center of the vibrating tip. Apply the lancing device so it presses against the finger through the vibration zone. Activate the lancet to perform the fingerstick.
  2. Post-Use: Remove your finger and wipe any residual blood.

Note: The Digivibe Stand is not included with the Digivibe by Süthe Kit. It can be ordered separately by visiting digivibe.com.

Abdominal Injections with Digivibe

Purpose: The Digivibe device is designed to reduce the perception of pain during subcutaneous abdominal injections through the application of controlled vibration. This instruction outlines the proper use of the device to enhance comfort during self-administered or caregiver-assisted injections, such as insulin administration.

  1. Prepare Injection Materials: Prepare your insulin or medication injection according to medical guidance. A 30-32 gauge needle with a length of 6-8 mm is recommended.
  2. Clean the Injection Site: Use an alcohol wipe to clean the designated area of the abdomen where the injection will be administered.
  3. Device Activation and Placement: Press the power button on the Digivibe to activate vibration. Place the vibrating sonic tip directly on the injection site.
  4. Pre-Injection Vibration: Vibrate the injection site for up to 20 seconds prior to inserting the needle.

Vibration Chart

Needle Gauge Vibration Time
30-32 gauge 20 seconds
  1. Injection Procedure: While maintaining vibration on the injection site, insert the needle through the center area of the vibrating tip into the tissue.
  2. Complete the Injection: Continue vibrating the site during the entire injection process until the needle is withdrawn.

Replacing & Disposal of Battery

Your Digivibe device uses one 1.5v AA lithium battery or one AA alkaline battery. A lithium battery will operate the Digivibe device for approximately 450 uses, assuming each use requires 15 seconds. If the device vibration is weak, replace the battery.

IMPORTANT: The recommended battery to use with this device is a 1.5v AA lithium battery, which will give the greatest performance and life of operation before needing to replace the battery.

Replacing the Battery

Start with the device turned off. Remove the battery cover by sliding it downward and pressing the release latch. Pull up on the battery to lift it out of the compartment. Remove the old battery. Insert a new AA lithium battery or one AA alkaline battery into the battery compartment. Plus (+) and minus (-) signs will guide you in placing the battery. The battery needs to be the Energizer 1.5v AA L91 or AA alkaline battery.

Disposal of Battery and Device

Dispose of battery and device according to your local environmental regulations.

Troubleshooting / FAQs

Digivibe device stand does not stick to the flat surface.

Detach the stand from the Digivibe device and wash the stand with a mild dishwashing detergent, then dry with a paper towel.

Digivibe device vibration is weak.

Replace the battery with a new lithium battery if the pain reduction effect is not felt. Do not use a rechargeable battery. We recommend a lithium battery. Alkaline batteries are not powerful enough to run the device at full strength.
