Hypodermic Needles

Hypodermic Needles are small and sharp needles that are used to inject fluids into the body or extract fluids for testing purposes. They come in different sizes, ranging from 16G to 28G, with larger numbers indicating thinner needles. These injection needles are designed to be single-use disposable items.

Hypodermic needles have various applications in the medical field, such as administering medications or vaccines, drawing blood samples for diagnostic tests, or draining fluids from abscesses or cysts. The needle's length and gauge depend on the injection site and the fluid being injected, with larger needles typically used for thicker fluids and larger doses.

AdvaCare Pharma's Hypodermic Needles are manufactured in facilities in China, India, and the USA, using the highest quality materials and strict quality control procedures. Our products are designed to meet the needs of healthcare providers and patients worldwide, and are backed by our commitment to excellence in every aspect of the production process.

Features

Hypodermic Needles are available in various gauges and lengths to accommodate different administration requirements. The Birmingham gauge is the primary system used to measure the diameter of the needle.

Standard sizes for general use are usually thinner needles ranging from 23G to 27G, while oil-based solutions, serums aspirating, and other applications may require wider gauges, ranging from 16G to 22G. The appropriate needle gauge and length depend on several factors such as the injection formulation, target tissue, and patient population.

One of the essential features of hypodermic needles is their ability to be sterilized and made non-toxic and non-pyrogenic for safe use. One method of sterilization is through gas sterilization, which ensures that the needles are free from harmful microorganisms that may cause infections. Additionally, hypodermic needles are designed to be single-use disposable items, which eliminates the risk of cross-contamination and infection transmission.

How should Hypodermic Needles be used?

Before using a hypodermic needle, hands must be washed thoroughly and the medication prepared as directed. The needle should be inspected for any signs of damage or defects before use.

Once ready, the injection site should be cleaned with an alcohol swab and allowed to dry before inserting the needle at a 90-degree angle. After insertion, the plunger should be depressed slowly to administer the medication.

It is important to follow the appropriate needle gauge and length based on the specific administration requirements. The needle should be inserted at the correct angle to ensure accurate delivery and minimize discomfort. Avoid reusing needles to prevent infection or contamination. If any complications or adverse reactions occur, seek medical attention immediately.

How should Hypodermic Needles be disposed of?

Hypodermic needles should be disposed of as medical waste in a safe and appropriate manner. After use, it is essential to place the used needles in a puncture-resistant sharps container immediately. These containers are specifically designed to prevent accidental needlestick injuries.
