Abstract

Lancet system for pain-reduced blood withdrawal comprising an impulse generator which exerts an impulse on a body part in a sequence which is synchronized with the movement of a lancet. Method for the pain-reduced blood withdrawal in which an impulse is exerted on an adjacent body part in a sequence which is synchronized with the generation of an opening in the skin.

Claims (17)

1. Lancet system for pain-reduced blood withdrawal comprising, .cndot. a housing with a contact surface which has an exit opening for the tip of a lancet, .cndot. a lancet holder for holding the lancet which can move in the housing along a lancing path, .cndot. a lancet drive for moving the lancet holder along the lancing path, .cndot. an impulse generator which exerts an impulse on a body part in a sequence that is synchronized with the movement of the lancet holder.
2. System as claimed in claim 1 which is designed such that the impulse is exerted between 0 and 100 ms and preferably between 20 and 50 ms after the tip of the lancet emerges from the exit opening.
3. System as claimed in claim 1 which is designed such that the impulse is exerted between 1000 and 0 ms before the tip of the lancet emerges from the exit opening.
4. System as claimed in claim 1 which has a device for adjusting the length of the lancet tip which protrudes beyond the contact surface.
5. System as claimed in claim 1 in which the impulse is transferred to the body via the contact surface.
6. System as claimed in claim 1 which has a ram for transferring the impulse to the body.
7. System as claimed in claim 1 in which the impulse generator and the lancet drive are mechanically coupled together.
8. System as claimed in claim 1 in which the impulse generator comprises a rotary slide gear which has an axis of rotation which is parallel to the lancing path and which is driven by an elastic drive element, and the system additionally comprises a mass whose movement is controlled by the gear member.
9. System as claimed in claim 8 in which the gear member controls the movement of the lancet holder.
10. System as claimed in claim 1 which has a cap that can be moved relative to the housing and on which cap the contact surface with the exit opening is located.
11. System as claimed in claim 10 which has an elastic drive element for moving the lancet holder into a lancing position and a second elastic drive element for retracting the lancet tip into the housing, wherein the second elastic drive element is mounted against the movable cap.
12. System as claimed in claim 1 in which the impulse generator exerts a maximum force in the range of 10 to 30 N on the body part.
13. System as claimed in claim 5 or 6 in which the contact surface or the ram has a profiled surface with which the impulse is applied.
14. Method for pain-reduced blood withdrawal comprising the steps .cndot.contacting a body part with a contact surface of a housing which has an exit opening for the tip of a lancet .cndot. moving a lancet holder with a lancet in the housing along a lancing path such that the tip of the lancet emerges through the exit opening beyond the contact surface .cndot. exerting an impulse on a body part in a sequence that is synchronized with the movement of the lancet holder.
15. Method as claimed in claim 14 in which the impulse is exerted between 1000 and 0 ms before the tip emerges from the exit opening.
16. Method as claimed in claim 14 in which the impulse is exerted between 0 and 100 ms, preferably between 20 and 50 ms after the tip emerges from the exit opening.
17. Method as claimed in one of the claims 14 to 16 in which the impulse has a duration in the range of 0 to 10 ms, preferably between 1 and 7 ms.
