How Does MDS Lancet Work?
Standard – A standard exposed-blade lancet goes deep into the skin to reach the capillary blood, and it hits pain nerves on its path. Patients must use a new lancet for every prick. Repeated use dulls the blade, making each subsequent prick more painful, as well as introducing risk of infection.
