SYRINGE with SafeR autoretractable needle and reuse prevention,
Definition
SafeR® is an automatically retractable safety syringe designed to provide a safe, accurate and reliable method for injecting liquids and medications.
Once assembled with its needle (SafeR® Sting), the syringe incorporates a passive safety mechanism that retracts and contains the contaminated needle after use, helping to prevent possible infections due to needle stick injuries and syringe reuse. The needle retraction is activated by the syringe user with one hand, with a single click.
