Abstract
An endcap for a lancing device includes a contact face with a pattern of ribs or pressure points used to massage skin around a lancet site to force blood for testing from a puncture at the lanced site. The pattern of ribs includes channels defined between the ribs which do not apply pressure on the skin during massaging such that blood flows under the skin below the channels to the puncture. Massaging is performed by applying the contact face under constant pressure to the skin, rocking the contact face, rotating the contact face, or pumping the contact face.
