Zusammenfassung:A method of applying an on-skin sensor assembly to skin of a host is provided. The method comprises providing an assembly comprising an applicator housing operatively coupled to a disposable housing, an insertion assembly comprising an insertion member, a first drive assembly containing a first amount of stored energy, and a second drive assembly containing a second amount of stored energy. The method further comprises activating a trigger of the assembly, wherein activating the trigger causes the first drive assembly to drive the insertion member in a distal direction during a first phase, wherein a sensor is inserted into the skin of the host; the first drive assembly to drive the insertion member in a proximal direction during a second phase, wherein the first drive assembly activates the second drive assembly while driving the insertion member in the proximal direction during the second phase; and the second drive assembly to drive the insertion member in the proximal direction during the second phase.
