The Sol-Care® Safety Needle is engineered to enhance clinician safety and streamline injection workflows.
-
A secure one-hand safety shield pivots over the needle tip after use and locks audibly with a “click”, reducing risk of accidental needlestick injury.
-
Dual activation options – either via thumb press or by engaging the protective arm on a hard surface – give flexibility in clinical settings.
-
Colour-coded hubs, safety arm and packaging conforming to ISO-6009 gauge identification standards make it easy to visually pick the correct gauge.
-
A bevel-up needle design enables low-angle injections and the safety arm is positioned so it does not obstruct the view of the injection site.
-
Fully compatible with standard Luer Lock & Luer Slip syringes (ISO 80369-7) and manufactured according to ISO 7864 & 23908.
-
Free from Latex, PVC and DEHP, making it suitable for latex-sensitive patients and environments.
-
Available in a wide range of gauges and lengths (18G–30G, ½”-2″ lengths) with box/case quantities optimized for institutional use.
Clinical & Operational Benefits:
-
Helps reduce needlestick injuries among healthcare staff by providing a mechanical safety cover mechanism.
-
The colour coded system helps minimise selection errors in high-volume settings.
-
One-hand operation supports busy clinical workflows and allows the other hand to stabilise the patient or the injection site.
-
Compatible with EMRN’s inventory strategy for medical supplies across Canadian acute care, clinics, and homecare settings, ensuring bilingual packaging and regulatory compliance.
Recommended Uses:
Ideal for medication administration via syringe in hospitals, clinics, home-care, and injection suites where user safety and ease of use are essential. Especially suitable for settings requiring low-angle subcutaneous or intramuscular injections, reduced risk workflows, and standard Luer syringe compatibility.
