Safety Pen Needle

A safety pen needle is a medical device used to administer insulin injections to people with diabetes. It is similar to a regular pen needle, but with an added safety mechanism that helps reduce the risk of accidental needlestick injuries.The safety mechanism on a pen needle is typically activated after injection by either pulling or twisting a protective shield over the needle tip. This helps prevent the needle from accidentally puncturing the skin or coming into contact with another person or object.Safety pen needles are designed to be easy to use and are available in various sizes to accommodate different injection lengths and body types. They are also compatible with most standard insulin pens.Using a safety pen needle can help reduce the risk of needlestick injuries and improve overall safety for both patients and healthcare providers. However, it is important to follow proper needle safety techniques and dispose of used needles in a sharps container to minimize the risk of infection or injury.
