McKesson Disposable Sterile Safety Lancet 30 Gauge - Pressure Activated Fingertip Needle

Professional-Grade Sterile Safety Lancet for Diagnostic Blood Sampling

The McKesson Disposable Sterile Fingertip Needle Pressure Lancet delivers precise, controlled micro blood flow ideal for diagnostic testing applications requiring small blood samples. Designed for healthcare professionals, clinical laboratories, home health monitoring, and point-of-care testing environments, this 30-gauge safety lancet combines ease of use, patient comfort, and advanced safety features to support accurate glucose monitoring, hemoglobin testing, cholesterol screening, and other capillary blood collection procedures.

Ready-to-Use Convenience with No Loading Required

Engineered for immediate use straight from the sterile package, this pressure-activated lancet eliminates the time-consuming loading steps required by traditional lancing devices. Healthcare providers and patients can simply remove the lancet from its protective packaging and apply it directly to the fingertip for instant blood sampling. This ready-to-use design streamlines workflow in busy clinical settings, reduces preparation time during patient visits, and simplifies home blood glucose monitoring for diabetic patients managing their condition independently. The elimination of loading mechanisms also reduces user error and ensures consistent, reliable performance with every use.

Advanced Tri-Beveled Needle Technology for Patient Comfort

Featuring a precision-engineered tri-beveled 30-gauge needle, this lancet delivers superior patient comfort during blood sampling procedures. The tri-beveled design creates three cutting edges that penetrate skin smoothly and efficiently, minimizing tissue trauma and reducing the pain sensation associated with capillary blood collection. The fine 30-gauge needle diameter represents an optimal balance between patient comfort and adequate blood flow, making it particularly suitable for pediatric patients, elderly individuals with sensitive skin, and patients requiring frequent testing who benefit from reduced discomfort. The controlled 1.5 mm penetration depth ensures sufficient blood sample collection while limiting unnecessary tissue penetration.

Pressure-Activated Safety Feature for Needlestick Prevention

Equipped with an integrated pressure-activated safety mechanism, this lancet provides essential protection against accidental needlestick injuries that pose infection transmission risks to healthcare workers and patients. The safety feature automatically activates upon use, permanently retracting or shielding the needle after the blood sampling procedure is complete. This automatic safety activation eliminates the need for manual safety engagement, reducing the risk of user error and ensuring consistent protection. The design supports compliance with OSHA bloodborne pathogen standards and healthcare facility safety protocols, making it an essential tool for safe blood collection in hospitals, clinics, physician offices, and home healthcare settings.

Sterile Single-Use Design for Infection Control

Each lancet is individually packaged in a sterile barrier system that maintains product sterility until the moment of use. The single-use disposable format supports rigorous infection prevention protocols by eliminating cross-contamination risks associated with reusable lancing devices. After a single blood sampling procedure, the lancet is safely disposed of in an appropriate sharps container, ensuring each patient receives a fresh, sterile device for every test. This approach aligns with current infection control best practices in healthcare facilities and home monitoring programs where patient safety is paramount.
