A simulated clinical use testing on the HTL-Strefa's safety lancets
This study aims to evaluate the safety of the use of the safety lancets: Haemolance Plus, Prolance and MediSafe Solo in the prevention of NSI and to evaluate the user's opinion with regards to the handling characteristics of the medical devices. The simulated use clinical study will involve healthcare professionals (HCPs) who routinely use safety lancets to collect blood samples.

The true failure rate of the tested devices
Time frame: At time of testing, up to 90 minutes
Effectiveness of the safety lancet's sharps injury prevention features
Evaluator questionnaire using five-point response Likert scale (coded from 1 "strongly disagree" to 5 "strongly agree") to measure respondents' attitudes to a particular question or statement. Numbers assigned to Likert scale express a "greater than" relationship.
Time frame: At time of testing, up to 90 minutes
Subjective assessments regarding evaluators' interactions with the tested safety lancets
Evaluator questionnaire using five-point response Likert scale (coded from 1 "strongly disagree" to 5 "strongly agree") to measure respondents' attitudes to a particular question or statement. Numbers assigned to Likert scale express a "greater than" relationship.
