Abstract
An actuation device includes a lancing device held by and moveable relative to a distal end portion of a housing. A drive member is supported by the housing and arranged to engage the lancing device to move the lancing device in the first direction from a retracted position to an extended position upon movement of the drive member in a first direction. A piercing member of the lancing device is arranged to extend from the distal end portion of the housing by a first distance when the lancing device is moved to the extended position, the first distance being adjustable by adjusting the retracted position of the lancing device relative to the distal end portion of the housing.
