摘要:
A lancet housing assembly (30; 400; 430; 452; 500; 600) includes a housing structure comprising multiple lancet compartments (40; 405; 444; 458; 505; 605). At least one of the lancet compartments comprises an outer facing side (64) and an inner facing side (66). A floor (70, 84; 424) extends between the outer facing side and the inner facing side (66). A reagent material (72; 426; 436; 478; 532; 650) is located on the floor and within the lancet compartment. A lancet structure (24; 406; 432; 450; 506; 606) is located in the at least one lancet compartment. The lancet structure comprises a skin penetrating end (90; 408; 434; 462; 508; 608) and a blood transport portion (92; 410; 464; 510; 610). The blood transport portion is arranged and configured to receive the amount of blood from the skin penetrating end and to carry the amount of blood away from the skin site and to the reagent material.
摘要:
The invention relates to a test system, comprising a test device (12), which has a piercing drive (14) and an optical measuring apparatus (16), and at least one test unit (20) which is inserted in the test device (12) as a disposable product, preferably in a magazine (18). According to the invention, the measuring apparatus (16) can be directly coupled to a detection element (24) of the test unit (20) by way of an optics adapter (68) on the device side, wherein a free end of the spring-loaded optics adapter (68) rests non-positively against the detection element (24).

The invention refers to a system comprising disposable medical devices and a packaging strip (1) comprising a plurality of chambers (2) containing the disposable medical devices, the strip being folded along breadthwise running fold lines to form a series of loops, each loop comprising opposing sections (3, 4), the opposing sections of at least some of these loops being sealed to each other thus forming chambers (2) between said sections. The invention also refers to a cartridge (10) containing such a packaging strip.
摘要:
The invention relates to a medical contrivance which comprises a lancet (2) having a proximal (5) and a distal end, said lancet (2) comprising a lancet base (4) and a lancet tip (3) on the proximal end (5) thereof. The lancet (2) is at least partially enclosed by a packaging.
摘要:
The invention relates to the field of analysis systems, in which a sample analysis is carried out using test strips. According to the invention, the analysis system comprises a transport unit (1), which is driven by piezo-active elements (2). The transport unit (1) permits the direct or indirect transport of test strips in such a way that analysis methods can be wholly or partly automated. The invention also relates to a transport unit for transporting a test strip (15), said unit being controlled by an optical detector that detects the test element (15) in the system.
摘要:
A sampling element (110) for generating a sample of a body fluid is disclosed. The sampling element (110) comprises a housing (114), the housing having a chamber (122) with at least one puncture element (112) stored therein. A tip (132) of the puncture element (112) is movable through at least one puncture opening (124) of the housing (114) in order to perforate a skin portion of a user. The sampling element (110) further comprises at least one compression element (150), which is adapted to increase a pressure of the body fluid within a body tissue of the user in a region of puncturing when pressed onto the skin portion of the user. The compression element (150) is movably mounted to the housing (114). The sampling element (110) comprises at least one locking mechanism (168) for releasably locking the compression element (150) in at least two positions. The at least two positions comprise a first position (170) and a second position (172), the second position (172) being offset from the first position (170).In a further aspect of the invention, an analytical device (204) is disclosed, the analytical device (204) being adapted for using the sampling element (110) of the invention.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method and device for extracting body fluid from a body part. The method provides a penetration device including a penetration element formed to pierce the body part and an actuator formed to propel forward movement of the penetration element. The penetration element is moved toward the body part at a very high penetration speed to form an impression in the body part having a depth less than about 0.3 mm and the body part is pierced with the penetration element. The actuator of the penetration device is formed to propel forward movement of the penetration element at a penetration speed of at least about 15 m/sec.
