Lancing cap kit applied pressure sensing cap
First Claim
1. A lancing kit comprising:
- a lancing device; and
a cap for the lancing device, the cap including;
a cap body with a distal end with a target site contact surface;
a proximal end for attachment to a lancing device;
an opening through the cap body from the distal end to the proximal end of thereof; and
at least one sensor, wherein, at least a portion of the target site contact surface is moveable between a first position and a second position upon application of a predetermined pressure to the portion of the distal end contact surface, and wherein the sensor is configured to detect movement of the portion of the distal end contact surface into the second position and communicate such detection to the lancing device.

Abstract
A lancing kit includes a lancing device and a lancing device cap. The cap for the lancing device includes a cap body and at least one sensor. In addition, the cap body includes a distal end with a target site contact surface, a proximal end for attachment to a lancing device and an opening through the cap body from the distal end to the proximal end. Furthermore, at least a portion of the target site contact surface is moveable between a first position and a second position upon application of a predetermined pressure to that portion of the distal end contact surface, and the sensor is configured to detect movement of the portion of the distal end contact surface into the second position and communicate such detection to the lancing device.
