VanishPoint syringes have been called "the gold standard for retractable needle syringes."* They are available in a variety of sizes (0.5, 1, 3, 5, and 10mL), needle gauges, and needle lengths. 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 virtually eliminates exposure to the contaminated needle, effectively reducing the risk of needlestick injury.

VanishPoint syringes areeasy to use, require no additional steps, and allow forsingle-handed activation. After activation, they require less disposal space than most other safety needles/syringes and prevent disposal-related needlestick injuries.

Product Usage Information

• Prepare and give injection using aseptic technique according to institutional policy.
• For injection into patients, continue depressing plunger to activate automatic needle retraction while needle is still in patient. For injection into IV ports, continue depressing plunger to activate automatic needle retraction and immediately remove needle from port. Full dose is administered only when needle retraction is activated.
• 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.
