In the UK, the syringe was developed, which allow the injections virtually painless. According to the BBC, the author was developing 29-year-old specialist in the field of industrial design, Oliver Blackwell (Oliver Blackwell).
The new device resembles a catheter for intravenous infusion. In addition to the usual needle through which the injected under the skin of a particular drug at the end of the syringe, there is still a fine needle. She was the first pierces the skin, and place it in the subsequent injection of a small quantity (about 0.2 milliliters) pain.
Accordingly, the penetration of the needle under the skin of the main, which follows the first one takes place under local anesthesia. According to Blackwell, it greatly reduces the anxiety of patients during the injection, and facilitates the health care provider that conducts the procedure. Learn more about Health News!
The developer said that at the present time for an injection of anesthesia needed to perform sequentially two different injection needles. The new syringe combines the two processes, thereby reducing the risk of transmission through medical instruments.
In the summer of 2010, American experts have confirmed the effectiveness of vaccination with plaster. At his side are sticky polymer microneedles containing a drug for immunization. When sticking plaster needles dissolved and the vaccine enters the top layer of skin.
