Aspirating Syringe Archives

An Aspirating Syringe is a safety-engineered medical device designed to verify needle placement before injection, crucial for avoiding intravascular administration of medications. It features a threaded plunger or a special mechanism that allows the practitioner to pull back (aspirate) with one hand while stabilizing the syringe, checking for blood return in the hub. This is a critical step in procedures like dental blocks, regional anesthesia, and cosmetic injections (e.g., dermal fillers), where accidental injection into a blood vessel can lead to serious complications such as tissue necrosis or embolism.

Key Features:

Threaded plunger or specialized design for secure, one-handed aspiration.
Allows the user to check for blood return to confirm extravascular needle placement.
Essential for safety in dental anesthesia, regional nerve blocks, and cosmetic injections.
Clear barrel enables visualization of aspirated blood or fluid.
Available in various capacities (e.g., 3ml, 5ml, 10ml) for different applications.
A fundamental safety device for any procedure involving percutaneous injection of potentially hazardous substances.
