ETSLP28 Easy Touch Pressure Activated 28G safety lancets are used to draw a fresh blood sample for blood glucose estimation. The product is employed to puncture the selected skin site. The blood sample thus collected is run through a glucose meter which gives the blood glucose reading.

Construction

ETSLP28 Easy Touch Pressure Activated 28G safety lancets are constructed using stainless steel that is sterile. To keep them sterile, a medical-grade plastic cover is mounted onto the needle. This additional covering keeps the needle microbe-free and enhances its firmness during finger pricking so that the risk of accidental injuries is reduced.

Caution

• Lancets are disposable items that can only be used for a single time.
• Sterile lancets should not be exposed to the environment before the time of use as this can lead to inaccuracies in BGL reading.
• Used lancets must be kept in a suitable metallic sharps container which can be purchased from a nearby pharmacy.
• The puncture site must be cleaned before starting the pricking procedure.
• Keep the lancets out of reach of children due to the choking hazard.

Warning

• Do not keep the unused lancets at extremely low or extremely high temperatures as this can alter their performance.
• Do not expose the lancets to highly moist environments as this can impact the reading accuracies.
• Do not employ an already used lancet either for the same or for a different patient.
• Do not share a single lancet among different diabetic patients as it can transfer infectious diseases.
