A dermal patch system for collecting a physiological sample includes a cartridge configured to attach to the skin of a subject. The cartridge includes a bottom material layer, a middle material layer, a top material layer, and a sample collection pad. The top layer and the middle layer define a vacuum pin receptacle and the vacuum pin is disposed within the vacuum pin receptacle. The vacuum pin creates a vacuum within the cartridge when moved to a deployed position. The system further includes a lancet with a needle(s). The lancet is configured to move the needle(s) from an undeployed position to a deployed position when engaged with into the cartridge. The needle(s) is configured to draw a physiological sample from the subject when the needle(s) is in the deployed position. The vacuum created by the vacuum pin draws the physiological sample to the sample collection pad.
