TRIVIDIA HEALTH TRUEdraw Lancing Device

Product Information: Lancing Device

The Lancing Device is designed for the hygienic collection of capillary blood for testing purposes. It is used with sterile, single-use lancets for blood collection from the side of a fingertip and alternative sites like the forearm. The device is intended for use by one patient only and is not suitable for healthcare or care workers.

The Lancing Device comes with a Twist Top / Pull Top Lancet, a Clear End Cap for forearm testing, an End Cap for finger testing, an Arrow Holder, a Trigger Button, a Depth Dial, a Lancet Top, and an Arming Barrel. The Clear End Cap can be obtained by calling Trividia Health, Inc. at 1-800-803-6025, Monday – Friday, 8AM- 8PM EST.

Improper use of blood lancets can increase the risk of inadvertent transmission of bloodborne pathogens, particularly in settings where multiple patients are tested. Therefore, DO NOT use on more than one patient. Used lancet blades must be safely discarded after a single use. All parts of the Lancing Device are considered biohazardous and can potentially transmit infectious diseases, even after cleaning and disinfection.
