Blood sample collecting device and kit

Abstract

The invention relates to a blood sample collecting device and a kit, which can be easily used by people who do not receive medical training or learn other expertise or knowledge to alleviate pains. Two parts on a first side are provided with flexible stripes with adhesive, and an absorbent pad and a substrate with a microstructure are arranged between the two parts. The substrate comprises a microstructure which is an external surface capable of mildly penetrating or puncturing skin to make blood flow into the body of a user. The absorbent pad can receive or absorb a blood sample and support various chemical agents which can further improve the blood mobility in a collecting system. The chemical agents include anticoagulant or blood anticoagulant, thereby being beneficial to blood transfer from donors to the absorbent pad. In addition, blood preservative is available in the system for stabilizing collected blood in long-distance transportation and transfer. The blood sample collecting systems can be further provided with anesthetics for improving comfort level of use.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to blood sample collection devices and kits, and in particular to devices and kits that are usable and fully operable by non-technical users in a home use environment. Background technique [0002] Modern medical analysis systems have matured to the point where delicate tests can be performed cheaply and easily without inconvenient trips to doctor's offices, laboratories, infirmaries, etc. In particular, blood metabolism analysis performed in advanced modern laboratories requires only a very small amount of blood from the patient as a sample. Although blood sampling for metabolic analysis is still largely a procedure performed by medical professionals (such as nurses) with advanced training in medical procedures in a controlled environment such as a doctor's office or hospital with specialized expensive equipment, new health concepts It is recommended that trips to doctors / hospitals be omitted and replaced by a...
