Function:
A Disposable Sterile Insulin Syringe is a medical device specifically designed for the precise and safe administration of insulin, a hormone used to manage diabetes. It enables individuals with diabetes to self-administer insulin injections accurately and effectively.
Features:
Insulin Compatibility: The syringe is designed to accurately measure and deliver insulin doses, ensuring proper management of blood sugar levels.
Dual Nominal Capacities: Available in U-40 and U-100 nominal capacities, the syringe accommodates different insulin concentrations, allowing for accurate dosing based on the prescribed insulin type.
Needle Diameter Options: The syringe is available with different needle diameters, such as 0.3mm, 0.33mm, and 0.36mm, providing options for patient comfort and injection preferences.
Clear Scale Markings: The syringe barrel is marked with clear and accurate scale measurements, ensuring precise dosage measurement and administration.
Color-Coded Plunger: Some insulin syringes have color-coded plungers, making it easier to identify and select the correct syringe and dosage.
Attached Needle: Insulin syringes often come with an attached fine-gauge needle specifically designed for subcutaneous injections, minimizing discomfort during injection.
Sterility: The syringes are pre-sterilized and packaged individually, ensuring aseptic conditions and reducing the risk of infection.
Smooth Plunger Movement: The plunger is designed to move smoothly, allowing for controlled and gentle injection.
Single-Use: Insulin syringes are intended for single-use only to ensure patient safety and prevent contamination.
Advantages:
Accurate Insulin Delivery: The syringe's accurate scale markings and precise construction enable patients to administer the correct insulin dosage, maintaining blood sugar levels within the desired range.
Dual Capacities: The availability of U-40 and U-100 capacities accommodates different insulin concentrations, making it suitable for a wide range of insulin types.
Customizable Needle Diameter: Patients can choose the needle diameter that best suits their comfort level and injection preferences.
User-Friendly: Clear scale markings, color-coded plungers (if applicable), and smooth plunger movement make the syringe easy to use, even for individuals with limited dexterity.
Minimized Discomfort: The attached fine-gauge needle minimizes pain and discomfort during injection, promoting better adherence to insulin therapy.
Convenient Packaging: Individually packaged syringes are sterile and ready for immediate use, promoting convenience and hygiene.
Safe and Sterile: Single-use, pre-sterilized syringes ensure patient safety and reduce the risk of contamination or infection.
Effective Diabetes Management: The insulin syringe plays a crucial role in helping individuals manage their diabetes effectively, preventing complications associated with uncontrolled blood sugar levels.
Versatility: Suitable for use across various medical departments, including the general surgery, inpatient, and emergency departments.
