The BD Microtainer® contact-activated lancet is a safety-engineered device used for the fingerstick collection of blood. Fingersticks should not be performed on children less than 1 year of age (according to CLSI guidelines).
It activates only when positioned and pressed against the skin, facilitating a consistent puncture depth for easier sampling.
The lancet covers only a small area at the contact point, which improves the visibility of the desired puncture site.
The intuitive procedure reduces training time, and the design prevents product reuse, reducing the possibility of patient, clinician, and/or sample contamination.
