- Commonly used in medical and veterinary settings
Uses
- Subcutaneous (Sub-Q) Injections:
- The fine gauge is often preferred for injections into the fatty tissue just below the skin
- Blood Sampling:
- The 23G needle can be used for drawing blood samples, particularly in patients with fragile veins, due to its finer gauge
- Intramuscular (IM) Injections:
- The 1-1/2-inch length is suitable for deep intramuscular injections, ensuring medication reaches the muscle tissue effectively in most adult patients
- Administering Vaccines:
- Suitable for vaccine administration where a fine, longer needle is required
- General Fluid Management:
- Used for accurately measuring and transferring liquids or gases in a clinical or laboratory setting
Features
- Luer-Lock Tip:
- Features a threaded tip that allows the needle hub to be twisted and securely locked onto the syringe barrel
- This provides a tight, leak-proof seal that prevents accidental disconnections during use, even under moderate pressure
- Capacity:
- A 3mL (3cc) barrel capacity, which is ideal for small to moderate volume injections and accurate dosing
- Needle Specifications:
- Includes a 23-gauge (G) x 1 1/2-inch (1.5") regular wall stainless steel needle
- The 23G is a fine gauge needle
- Low Dead Space:
- The plunger is designed with low dead space, which minimizes the amount of residual fluid remaining in the syringe after full depression, reducing medication waste and ensuring accurate dosing
- Visibility and Accuracy:
- Features a crystal clear barrel with large, bold print markings for excellent visibility and greater filling accuracy
- Smooth Plunger Motion:
- Designed with siliconized gaskets for a smooth and consistent plunger action, allowing for controlled administration
- Positive Plunger Stop:
- Includes a mechanism that prevents the plunger from being accidentally pulled completely out, avoiding spillage
- Safety and Sterility:
- It is sterile, non-toxic, non-pyrogenic, and natural rubber latex-free, minimizing the risk of allergic reactions and contamination
