    DULUTH, GA, August 02, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- MediPurpose(tm), a manufacturer and master distributor of medical products, today announced the publication of a new white paper, Reinventing a Better Safety Heelstick: A Summary of babyLance(tm) Features -- Design and Validation.

This white paper summarizes key design features -- and the processes by which they were validated -- for the all-new babyLance safety heelstick, including its:

* Easy activation
* Smooth and consistent incisions
* Ergonomics
* Safety

"MediPurpose has committed considerable time and effort into discovering, implementing and validating the features that result in the 'ideal' neonatal heelstick device," said MediPurpose founder and CEO Patrick Yi, leader of the babyLance design team.

"Coupled with being the only known infant heelstick to have U.S. FDA 510(k) clearance for sharps injury prevention features, we believe babyLance meets all the user requirements for an 'ideal heelstick device," added Yi.
