The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) recommends a maximum depth of heel puncture not to exceed 2.0 mm. This guideline is aimed at minimizing the risk of injury to the underlying structures, such as bones and nerves, especially in neonates and infants. Proper technique and adherence to this depth are crucial for safe and effective blood sample collection from the heel.
The heel prick test, also known as newborn screening, is performed on the heel because it provides a convenient and safe site for blood collection in infants. The heel is less likely to be affected by movement, making it easier to obtain a small blood sample without causing significant discomfort. Additionally, this location minimizes the risk of injury to the infant, as it is away from major nerves and blood vessels. The test is crucial for early detection of metabolic and genetic disorders, allowing for timely intervention.
