Lancets vary considerably in size, some are smaller and therefore more appropriate for children. These same lancets may not draw an appropriate amount of blood for adults. Do some lancets hurt more than others? Generally, lancing devices for diabetes all look very much the same. The devices are small tubes that launch a small needle known as a lancet into the skin to make a puncture that produces a drop of blood. Lancets are designed to fit their brand lancing device however some are universal and fit several lancing devices. Microdot Plus ® and CareSens ® are compatible with most lancing devices. They are available in different sizes.

Lancets are designed to only be used once, and then disposed of in a safe way. Using a lancet just once will make it more blunt, and therefore more painful to use. There are a variety of ways of getting rid of used lancets safely as they can carry infection. Some companies sell sharps boxes, and GPs can even prescribe sharps bins to dispose of lancets safely. Brand: If a person has a refillable lancet device, they must ensure that they select the correct brand and style of lancet to put inside it. Nearly all lancing devices — with two notable exceptions in our roundup — tend to use the same type of spring-loaded mechanism to push the lancet needle into the skin. Select the desired penetration depth only after removing the sterile cap and choose the depth you require by turning the depth adjuster * Use only as directed. Consult your healthcare professional for advice. Accu-Chek lancing devices are for single patient use only. The same device must not be used on multiple patients.

To use it, twist the top off, press the tip against the finger, and the needle is triggered. Once the skin has been jabbed, pull the Pip away from the skin, replace the top, and dispose of it properly. This system works well for people with limited dexterity. Instead of plunging the lancet needle into the skin, when the activation button is pushed, a vacuum is created in the tip, drawing the skin up toward the lancet. This creates separation between the layer of skin where the blood capillaries are and the nerve endings. When the lancet is released, it punctures the skin without reaching the nerves, avoiding causing pain.
