The BD UltraSafe Plus™ passive needle guard for pre-filled ISO standard glass syringes is designed to support viscous drug delivery with ergonomics and drug visibility. The BD UltraSafe Plus passive needle guard enables passive activation for single-handed use.
Safety devices are made with the philosophy of increasing the immunity of the patient and those around the patient, so that after injection, the needle will be completely covered and the possibility of transmitting diseases such as AIDS and hepatitis through a contaminated syringe will be eliminated.
The American Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has recommended the use of safety devices in order to prevent the transmission of diseases through contaminated needles.
