The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) bloodborne pathogens standard requires the use of safety engineered lancets when obtaining a test sample unless the resident has a contraindicated disease. Assure® Lance safety lancets are designed to help meet OSHA requirements for needlestick safety when obtaining a test sample. Needlestick accidents increase the risk of bloodborne virus transmission and the stress experienced by the affected healthcare professional can be enormous.
Each gauge size offers a tri-bevel needle that is designed to maximize resident comfort
Extended finger flange and body ridges - engineered to provide a secure grip
Single-turn protective cap - one, 360 deg turn and pull removes the protective cap
Solid body color - designed to make it easier to distinguish between different gauge sizes
The hidden needle construction and automatic after use lockout helps prevent needle stick accidents
