RTI’s VanishPoint Safety Syringe is easy to use, requires no additional steps, and allows for single-handed activation. It requires less disposal space than other safety needles/syringes and prevents disposal-related needlestick injuries.
Features
- Greatly reduces exposure
- Prevents needle removal
- Integrated safety mechanism
- Remains safe through disposal
- Hands remain behind the sharp
- Singled-handed, passive activation
- Easy to use, requires minimal training
- Safe and effective for healthcare workers and patients
Automated Retraction
The needle is automatically retracted directly from the patient into the barrel of the syringe when the plunger handle is fully depressed. The pre-removal, automated retraction greatly reduces exposure to the contaminated needle, effectively reducing the risk of needlestick injury.
Low Dead Space Technology
According to a leading COVID-19 vaccine maker, using a syringe with a dead space of 35 microliters or less allows access to an additional dose from a 5-dose vial. VanishPoint 1mL Low Dead Space safety syringe meets that criterion, allowing for an extra dose that otherwise would be wasted. Received multiple reports from clinicians stating that they were able to draw additional doses from multi-dose vials.
Product Usage Information:
- Prepare and give injection using aseptic technique according to institutional policy.
- Continue depressing plunger to activate automatic needle retraction while needle is still in patient. Full dose is administered when the plunger handle is fully depressed, which activates the needle retraction mechanism.
- Needle will automatically retract into syringe, preventing exposure to contaminated needle and rendering syringe non-reusable. In the event that needle retraction mechanism does not activate, discard syringe in an appropriate sharps container per protocol of institution. Do not recap contaminated needles.
- Dispose of VanishPoint syringe in an appropriate sharps container per protocol of institution.
Precautions:
- Not made with natural rubber latex.
- Use only with attached needle. Needle cannot be changed.
- U.S. Federal Law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
- Contents are sterile, non-toxic, and non-pyrogenic. Do not use if product or package is damaged.
- Automated needle retraction occurs only when barrel is emptied and plunger is fully depressed.
- For applications where full dose is not administered, expel remaining contents according to institutional policy and activate needle retraction.
- Single use only. Reuse of this device may result in exposure to bloodborne pathogens, including Hepatitis B virus (HBV), Hepatitis C virus (HCV), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
