Description

The Needle, Safety Glide 23Gx1" is designed to provide enhanced safety and protection during medical procedures. It features the patented BD Activation-Assist™ Needle Shield, which allows for fast and easy activation of the safety shield. This mechanism helps protect healthcare professionals from needlestick injuries, reducing the risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens and the associated costs of treating such injuries.

The safety shield is an integral part of the needle, designed to cover the hypodermic needle immediately after use, ensuring that the sharp end is no longer exposed. The Activation-Assist™ technology offers a smooth and simple operation, allowing for quick shielding without the need for additional handling or steps. This innovative technology ensures that the user’s hands are kept safely away from the needle.

The needle itself is a 23-gauge size, with a 1-inch length, making it suitable for a variety of injection and blood draw applications. Its sharp, precise tip allows for efficient penetration with minimal discomfort to the patient, while the safety features ensure both user and patient safety during the procedure.
