HemoCue® Safety Lancet – High-Precision Capillary Blood Sampling

High-quality samples for accurate and reliable hemoglobin results

The HemoCue® Safety Lancet is specifically designed to maximize the accuracy of capillary blood test results, particularly when used with HemoCue® Hb 201 microcuvettes. Achieving precise test results requires a spontaneous and adequate blood flow, which depends on proper sampling technique and a consistent incision depth.

Developed by HemoCue, the HemoCue® Safety Lancet delivers a reliable and uniform incision depth, significantly improving the likelihood of obtaining a correct, high-quality capillary blood sample. When used correctly, it ensures accurate and reproducible test results, every time.
