A
syringe is the most important element of medical
lab supplies because
it moves fast. A clinic might consume hundreds of syringes in a
business day. This product is used for administering medicines and
also for taking blood samples for health checkup.
Made
up of plastic material, these syringes come in different sizes and
with different features like changeable needle that allows changing
broken or faulty needles. Convenience is the biggest factor to
consider in syringes. These products are recognized with their
markings used for measuring medicines and samples.
Consider
the high demand for medical
lab supplies,
it becomes necessary that you understand value of needles that are
the most important clinic supplies. A syringe has three parts –
needle, barrel and plunger. Each part has its role and together the
three parts make a syringe functional and useful.
Let’s
discuss some important features of a syringe
1.
Needle
It
is the longest and also the most important part of a syringe. It is
with a needle that a syringe administers medicine into human body.
This part should remain capped before and after use.
2.
Barrel
It
is the chamber where medicine is held. The barrel must have clear and
visible markings from outside. The users must be able to read the
markings to avoid human error in administering doses.
3.
Disposal
All
medical
lab supplies have
to dispose of safely. But in case of syringes, due care has to be
taken to make sure that they don’t land into the hands of others.
