InviroSNAP! Safety Syringe Allergy Trays

Inviro Medical

InviroSNAP! Safety Syringe Allergy Trays offer the following benefits to healthcare providers:

  • Enables easy administration of flu shots - trays designed for convenient access.

  • Reduces packaging waste – includes 25 sterile syringes in a sealed tray, instead of 25 individually packaged, unopened syringes.

  • Reduces administration time – designed to save both clinicians' and patients' valuable time.

  • Reduces risk of needlestick injuries - includes cost-effective safety syringes that bridge the gap between bulky retro-fitted designs and more expensive automatic retractables.

The InviroSNAP! Safety Syringe Allergy Trays include Inviro Medical Devices’ flagship, patented InviroSNAP! Safety Syringes. These syringes function like traditional syringes, but the device is engineered with a safety feature integral to the design. After using standard technique to administer a medication dose from the safety syringe, the clinician pulls the plunger back, causing the needle to retract inside the barrel. The plunger is then snapped off, permanently disabling the device. These easy-to-use syringes help hospitals and healthcare professionals reduce the incidence of needlestick injuries on the job, and can be especially critical in settings where allergy shots and other vaccinations are being administered in bulk.
