Designed with the patient in mind
The surgical blade produces an accurate, clean-edged incision that minimizes newborn discomfort. The blood draw reduces newborn screening reject rates and hemolyzed samples.
NeatNick’s fast blade speed produces a virtually instantaneous incision meaning less pain for the baby. The high-precision surgical blade produces an accurate, clean-edged incision through the capillary bed, at a depth level comparable to other sweeping lancets. This means a clean cut translating into faster healing times and less trauma.
The textured design of NeatNick ensures secure placement on the baby’s heel. A tapered edge and arrows are used as guidance for accurate placement. The smooth firing mechanism produces a quick incision without any “jump.”
