Accu-Chek Safe-T-Pro Uno 200 Lancets

Description

This product is a single-use, automatic lancing device designed for blood sampling.It features a pre-set depth for skin penetration to minimize discomfort and ensure consistent results.Each device contains a sterile lancet that is automatically ejected after use, promoting safety and hygiene.Benefits:-Safe-T Technology guarentees enhanced safety: needle is always safely stored in the housing and accidental needle sticks are prevented.-Easy handling due to ergonomic T-shape design.-Ready to use because of its pre-set depth setting.-Designed for smooth skin penetration with a 3 facet cut, siliconised needle.-Ease of Use: The automatic mechanism simplifies the process of obtaining blood samples, making it suitable for individuals with limited dexterity.-Reduced Pain: The pre-set depth helps to minimize pain during the lancing process compared to manual devices.-Safety Features: The automatic ejection of the lancet reduces the risk of accidental needle stick injuries.-Hygienic: Each lancet is individually packaged and sterile, reducing the risk of infection.Precautions:-Ensure that the device is used according to the manufacturer’s instructions to avoid injury or ineffective sampling.-Do not reuse lancets or devices as this can lead to infections or inaccurate results.-Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.Side Effects:-Minor pain or discomfort at the puncture site may occur, although it is generally less than with traditional lancing devices.-Possible bruising or bleeding at the site of puncture if not used correctly.Main Materials and Their Benefits:-Needle Material: Stainless SteelThe Accu-Chek Safe-T-Pro Uno lancets utilize stainless steel for the needle construction. This material is known for its strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion. The use of stainless steel ensures that the needles maintain sharpness and precision, which is crucial for minimizing pain during lancing procedures. Additionally, stainless steel is easy to sterilize, making it a hygienic choice that helps prevent infection.- Coating: Silicone Dow Corning Medical FluidThe needles are coated with silicone, specifically Dow Corning Medical Fluid. This coating reduces friction as the needle penetrates the skin, allowing for a smoother and less painful experience during blood sampling. The silicone coating also contributes to the overall sterility of the device by providing a barrier against contaminants.-Casing Material: PolypropyleneThe casing of the Accu-Chek Safe-T-Pro Uno lancing device is made from polypropylene, a thermoplastic polymer known for its strength and chemical resistance. This material provides a lightweight yet robust structure that protects the internal components of the device while ensuring ease of handling. Polypropylene is also non-toxic and safe for medical applications.-Spring Material: PolypropyleneThe spring mechanism within the device is also constructed from polypropylene. This choice allows for reliable performance in triggering the lancing action while maintaining safety features such as automatic retraction of the needle after use. The use of polypropylene ensures that the spring can withstand repeated use without degradation.- Sterility Cap Material: PolypropyleneThe sterility cap that covers the needle before use is made from polypropylene as well. This cap plays a critical role in maintaining sterility until the moment of use, thus preventing contamination and ensuring patient safety.
