Frequently asked questions
Does the needle design minimize patient discomfort?
Yes, patient comfort is a top priority. The needle is both electro-polished and silicone-coated, which allows for a smoother, nearly painless puncture. Additionally, the high puncture speed helps minimize pain and encourages faster healing of the skin.
Is this device safe for those with latex allergies?
Absolutely. The McKesson Safety Lancet is manufactured with materials that are not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for individuals with latex sensitivities.
How does the self-destructing mechanism ensure safety?
Safety is built into the design through an automatic retraction system. Once the device is activated, the needle is permanently shielded within the plastic housing. This mechanism prevents accidental needlestick injuries and ensures the device cannot be reused.
Is the activation process easy to perform?
The device is designed for intuitive, two-step operation. It requires only a low firing force, making it easy to use for both clinical professionals and individuals managing their health at home. No manual loading of the lancet is required.
What is the specific needle depth for this lancet?
This model features a fixed 1.5 mm penetration depth. This specific depth is precision-engineered to provide a consistent and adequate blood flow for your capillary samples while maintaining accuracy.
Can I use these for standard blood glucose testing?
Yes, these lancets are ideally suited for use with standard blood glucose monitoring systems and other diagnostic tests that require small-volume capillary blood samples.
How can I quickly identify the needle gauge?
For easy identification, the lancets are color-coded purple, which specifically denotes the 28-gauge size. This helps you quickly verify you are using the correct device for your needs.
Is the lancet sterile and ready to use?
Yes, every lancet is gamma-sterilized and includes a protective sterility tab that you remove before use, ensuring the device remains hygienic until the exact moment you are ready for your sample.
How many lancets are included in one box?
Each box contains 100 individual, single-use safety lancets, providing a convenient supply for regular testing needs.
Are these lancets considered medical grade?
