Abstract
A device for puncturing the skin of a patient. The device includes a lancet for puncturing the skin and a skin stabilizer associated with the lancet for stabilizing the skin to reduce its freedom of movement when the lancet strikes it. The skin stabilizer has an opening through which the lancet can pass to puncture the skin. The skin stabilizer applies pressure on the skin around the opening. The application of pressure, in additional to reducing the freedom of movement of the skin directly held by the skin stabilizer, also increases the tautness of the skin in the opening prior to the lancet penetrating the skin. The opening is not substantially larger than the size of the lancet.
