REPORT DESCRIPTION
Prefilled Safety Devices Market – Overview
Prefilled safety devices refer to the development of technology in the conventional form of syringes, wherein
the needles are developed with safety mechanism to prevent needle stick or any other needle-associated
injuries. These needles are designed and manufactured in such a way that it does not harm the recipient as
well as prevents the exposure of health-workers towards susceptible risks and harmful infections. These
syringes have needles that can be retracted after use, which enables safe disposal of needles and prevents
misuse of the used syringes. Moreover, syringes with protective shields are also available.
The prefilled safety devices are found extensively in practice these days among large number of hospitals and
clinics across the globe. These devices were developed to reduce the number of needle-stick injuries and
possibility of spreading of infections due to these injuries. Infections spreading through the use of unsafe
needles and syringes are harmful and can be avoided through proper guidance to the healthcare workers
about avoiding reuse of syringes.
Commercially available prefilled safety devices include BD SafetyGlide, Sterican safety needle, SureSafe
automatic retractable syringe, BD Integra, and others.
