An apparatus for lancing a dermal tissue target site includes a dermal tissue lancing device with a housing, a lancet that is moveable with respect to the housing, and a cap. The cap has an opening therethrough for a portion of a lancet to pass through and a continuous saddle-contoured compression surface. The continuous saddle-contoured compression surface is configured for engaging a dermal tissue target site such that, when the cap contacts and is urged towards the dermal tissue target site, the continuous saddle-contoured compression surface applies substantially uniform pressure against the dermal tissue target site. <IMAGE> |
