A novel two part lancing device comprising a multiple compartment housing for lancets and a carrier. The compartments (256) are joined in a common multiple lancet housing for improved handling and distribution. The housing comprises two end compartments and at least two serially linked, frangibly separable, disposable lancet compartments (256) which include presterilized, selfactuating lancets (170). When fired, each lancet (170), driven by a precocked torsion spring (114), executes one reciprocal cycle wherein the lancet tip (140) is driven outward a precise distance to lance a patient's finger or the like and is then fully retracted into the housing to provide access to the next lancet. The carrier is a handler for the lancet housing and provides a convenient tool of constant length and feel for positioning and firing the lancets. |
