Safety Mechanism Many blood lancets have a safety mechanism that covers the needle before and after use. This helps to prevent accidental needlestick injuries and ensures safe disposal. Depth Control Some blood lancets have an adjustable depth control feature that allows users to adjust the depth of the needle penetration. This can be helpful in obtaining an adequate blood sample while minimizing discomfort. Sterility Blood lancets are manufactured and packaged under sterile conditions to prevent infection. They are typically individually wrapped or supplied in a sterile package. Lancet Activation Blood lancets can be activated manually by pressing a button or by using a spring-loaded mechanism. The activation mechanism causes the needle to quickly puncture the skin and withdraw.
