Devices and methods for withdrawing bodily fluid from a subject are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a handheld device can include a housing having an opening, a skin-piercing assembly, and an actuator coupled to the skin-piercing assembly. The skin-piercing assembly can include a casing, a drive member pivotably mounted within the casing and carrying a blade, and a biasing member coupling the drive member to the casing. The actuator can be movable relative to the housing from a first position to a second position. In the first position, the drive member can engage the casing to maintain the biasing member in a biased configuration. Movement of the actuator from the first position to the second position can disengage the drive member from the casing to permit the biasing member to drive the blade at least partially through and/or across the opening in the base.

A lancing device includes: a cover section, a part of which is provided with an opening; a main body held on the cover section and configured to be movable in a predetermined direction from the opening relative to the cover section; a lancing unit which is launched in the predetermined direction; and an operating section configured to launch the lancing unit when the operating section is pushed by applying a force in the predetermined direction, wherein the lancing unit is launched when the force is applied to the operating section in the predetermined direction with regulating a movement of the main body in the predetermined direction, and the main body moves, instead of pushing the operating section, by applying the force in the predetermined direction without regulating the movement of the main body in the predetermined direction is disclosed.

A blood analyzer device has a housing with a top section coupled to a bottom section, a driver and a plurality of penetrating members housed in a disposable positionable in the housing. A gripper engages each penetrating member. A manually actuated button advances the disposable to move penetrating members into launch positions. A power is source coupled to the driver. A display is at the housing.

Skin stimulus arrangements are described for creating a stimulus in the skin in the vicinity of a treatment or wound site to alleviate the perception of pain. First and second textured surfaces are provided for making contact with the skin, with the surfaces being moved to create a stimulus which alleviates the perception of pain. The movement may be linear, rotary or a combination of both, and just a single textured surface may be provided.

The invention relates to a lancet for performing an incision. The lancet has a blade for providing an incision and a trigger housed in a housing. The trigger has a first trigger arm, a second trigger arm and a flexible member connected to the second trigger arm. A resilient member may be disposed within the housing in a pre-cutting state in which it stores energy and arranged to exert a force for moving the second trigger arm and the blade from a first stowed position through a cutting position and to a second stowed position.

A method of performing an intravenous drip injection includes a first step, a second step, a third step and a fourth step. A first step includes starting dosing an infusion solution containing a predetermined component by the intravenous drip injection to a dosing recipient. A second step includes extracting a body fluid from the dosing recipient being dosed with the infusion solution. A third step includes measuring a concentration of the predetermined component in the extracted body fluid. A fourth step includes varying the concentration of the predetermined component in the infusion solution, corresponding to the concentration of the predetermined component in the body fluid.

A lancet device includes a housing, a removable front cap mounted to the housing, a lancet holding member, a trigger and an arming system comprising a grippable cocking member structured and arranged to place the lancet device in a trigger-set or armed position. A depth adjustment system includes a member that is at least slidable and partially rotatably mounted and that has an axis of rotation arranged substantially parallel to a center axis of the lancet holding member. An ejection system includes an ejector having a portion extending outside a sidewall opening of the housing and being located closer to a front end of the housing than to a rear end of the housing. The sidewall opening of the housing is arranged on an area of the housing located between the trigger and a wall of the housing located opposite the trigger. The ejection system is structured and arranged to at least one of prevent axial movement of the lancet holding member or remove or eject a lancet from the lancet holding member.

The present disclosure relates to a blood collection device, including: a shell; a blade seat, arranged in the shell; an elastic component for providing an elastic force for pivoting the blade seat; a triggering portion, including an operating end and an abutting end, wherein the triggering portion has a first position and a second position for pivoting, the operating end extends to the outside of the shell, the abutting end is located in the shell, based on the operation of the operating end, the triggering portion is suitable for pivoting from the first position that prevents the blade seat from pivoting to the second position that allows the blade seat to pivot based on the elastic force of the elastic component, wherein: a cooperation column is arranged in the shell and is located at the upper side of the triggering portion spaced from the triggering portion; and an elastic arm is connected to the upper side of the triggering portion, the end part of the elastic arm includes a blocking portion, the end part of the elastic arm is suitable for being located on one side of the cooperation column when the triggering portion is at the first position, and is located on the other side of the cooperation column when the triggering portion pivots from the first position to the second position, and the blocking portion provides resistance for the end part of the elastic arm while moving from one side of the cooperation column to the other side.
