Abstract
A method for lancing a dermal tissue target site includes providing a dermal tissue lancing device with a housing, a lancet that is moveable with respect to the housing, and a cap. The cap includes a cap body with an opening therethrough for the lancet to pass through, a proximal end, and a distal end. The cap also includes an attachment mechanism for tiltably attaching the cap body to the dermal tissue lancing device. The attachment mechanism enables the cap body to be free to tilt relative to the housing of the dermal tissue lancing device when the distal end of the cap body is urged against a dermal tissue target site. The method also includes contacting and engaging the distal end of the cap body with a dermal tissue target site such that the cap body tilts, urging the cap body towards the dermal tissue target site such that the cap body applies essentially uniform pressure against the dermal tissue target site to create a target site bulge, and lancing the target site bulge.
