Frequently asked questions
Does this lancet effectively reduce patient pain?
Yes, it is engineered with Comfort Zone Technology. This feature works by stimulating the nerve endings at the puncture site, which helps to distract from the sensation of the needle and provides a virtually pain-free experience.
Is there a safety feature against accidental needlesticks?
Absolutely. The Unistik 3 is designed with an automatic needle retraction mechanism. Once the sample is collected, the needle retracts into the protective housing to prevent accidental injuries and cross-contamination.
Are these lancets suitable for home use?
Yes, these are perfectly suited for both professional clinical settings and home-use environments. They are ideal for individuals who require regular, routine blood monitoring.
Is the activation process simple to control?
The device features a side-fire activation mechanism combined with an integrated alignment guide. This design gives the user superior control over both the positioning and the timing of the sample collection.
Can this be used for cholesterol or HbA1c testing?
Yes. With a 23-gauge needle and a 1.8 mm depth, this lancet is specifically optimized for medium flow applications, including:
- Blood glucose monitoring
- Cholesterol checks
- HbA1c testing
Do I need to assemble or load anything?
No assembly is required. Each unit is pre-set and ready for immediate use right out of the box, making the blood sampling process fast and efficient.
How many lancets come in a single box?
Each box contains 50 individual, single-use lancets.
Does the design prevent cross-contamination?
Yes, the single-use, disposable design ensures optimal hygiene and strictly prevents cross-contamination between uses.
Is this device compatible with standard glucose meters?
The Unistik 3 is designed to pair seamlessly with standard blood glucose meters and common diagnostic testing kits used in point-of-care environments.
Is the grip ergonomic for easier handling?
The device is built with an ergonomic trigger motion in mind, featuring a slender plastic casing that includes a slightly textured grip area to ensure stability during the sampling process.
