The invention relates to a puncturing system for generating a puncture wound for obtaining a sample of a body fluid, comprising a press-on part to be pressed onto a body part in which a puncture wound is to be generated, a triggering means with which a user can trigger a puncturing motion of a puncturing element after the press-on part is pressed on, and a testing facility for determining a test parameter on which a sample-obtaining probability depends. A securing facility is also provided that, in a locked state, locks the triggering means and, in a triggering state, releases the triggering means such that a puncturing motion can be triggered by actuation thereof. The securing facility is transitioned from the locked state to the triggering state by the testing facility when the test parameter determined by the testing facility meets defined minimum requirements.
摘要:
The present invention provides a hand-held analysis instrument for analyzing a body fluid. The instrument comprises a housing with a housing opening to which a body part, in particular, a finger, can be applied to generate a puncture wound, an analysis unit for analyzing a sample of a body fluid obtained at the puncture wound, and a piercing unit including a lancet and lancet drive for generating a puncture movement of the lancet. The piercing unit, including the lancet drive, is movable between an operating position and a rest position, the piercing unit being located at the housing opening in the operating position in such a manner that by means of the lancet a puncture wound can be generated in a body part pressed against the housing opening, and the piercing unit being remote from the housing opening in the rest position in such a manner that the space in front of the housing opening is free for the analysis unit, so that it can be moved into a position for receiving blood. An operating device is used for actuating a functional mechanism of the piercing unit. The piercing unit is decoupled from the operating device in one of its two positions and is coupled to the operating device in the other position.

A puncturing device includes a band-shaped lancet carrier carrying a plurality of lancets, a transport mechanism for positioning the lancets sequentially in a launch position by moving the band-shaped lancet carrier, a lancet drive for a puncturing movement, the lancet drive comprising an energy storage, a trigger element, and a housing which includes at least two housing parts and encloses the band-shaped lancet carrier and the lancet drive, the housing having an opening against which a body part is pressed for puncturing, wherein the transport mechanism includes at least one part arranged in a fixed position with respect to the housing. The puncturing device is adapted for disposable use in that the housing parts were are irreversibly connected upon enclosing the band-shaped lancet carrier, thereby sealing the band-shaped lancet carrier irremovably in the housing. A reusable handling device can also be used with the puncturing device.
摘要:
The present invention provides an integrated measuring device that includes a blood collection system for collecting blood for diagnostic purposes. The blood collection system comprises an electric motor which provides energy for propelling a lancet. The blood collection system comprises a mechanical energy store in which the electric energy that is converted by the motor is stored in the form of mechanical energy. The use of a mechanical energy store allows the use of known mechanical drive elements. The blood collection system can also be electrically activated and is thus easy to use for the operator. The motor can also be coupled to another system component, such as a test strip or lancet drum, to operate it.

The invention relates to a drive unit for a medical device such as an insulin pump, lancing device, or test strip magazine. The drive unit comprises an actuator for charging a mechanical energy storage element. The actuator oscillates and executes travel strokes which are transmitted by means of a step-up element to a nonreturn rotor or traveler for prestressing the mechanical energy storage element and driving a movement element.

The present invention relates to a lancet device, by which a lancet can be displaced along a piercing path for generating a piercing wound in a skin surface, in particular to obtain bodily fluid for diagnostic purposes, comprising a lancet drive having drive means to generate a drive force for a piercing movement of the lancet along the piercing path in the direction toward the skin surface. According to the present invention, the lancet drive comprises a magnet, by which a magnetic retention force oriented opposite to the drive force may be generated, and the lancet drive also comprises triggering means, by which the retention force may be reduced enough that the lancet is accelerated in the direction toward the skin surface under the effect of the drive force generated by the drive means. The present invention also relates to a method for generating a piercing wound, in which the drive spring is held in a tensioned state using a magnetic retention force oriented opposite to the drive force before the triggering of a piercing wound.
摘要:
System for withdrawing body fluid from a body part in particular the finger pad, comprising a compression unit that is deformed when the body part is pressed against it and increases the internal pressure in a region of the body part, and a withdrawal device. Deformation of the compression unit partially converts the primary pressing movement into a secondary movement which leads to an increase in the internal pressure in a region of the body part. The invention also comprises a system for stimulating the outflow of body fluid using a deformable compression unit.
