BD SafetyGlide TB Syringe with Needle

A Shield That Activates Without Changing How You Give the Injection

Needlestick protection only works in practice if it doesn't slow the injection down or require relearning technique, which is the specific problem this hinged shield design solves – one hand slides it into place immediately after the needle comes out, with no separate activation step disrupting the motion staff already know. Combined with the 1 mL tuberculin barrel's fine graduation, this syringe covers small-volume, precisely-dosed injections where accuracy and needlestick protection both matter, which comes up often in vaccine administration, intradermal testing, and weight-based dosing on smaller patients.
