Gentleheel® Heel Incision Device Lancet by Cardinal Health

The GentleHeel® heel incision device provides a safe and efficient means for acquiring blood samples from the heels of newborns.

GentleHeel® features a tri-bevel and hardened stainless steel blade that generates a less traumatic and more accurate incision as well as a welded casing to help prevent accidental exposure to the blade.

In addition to the current GentleHeel® features, the following cosmetic improvements have been added:

Multiple visual indicators reinforce the location of the incision site

Four distinct colors for easier selection
Welded plastic case prevents accidental exposure to the blade
