Allison Medical 22-9003 Sure Comfort Insulin Syringes 29 gauge x 1/2″ 0.3 mL.
Allison Medical 22-9003 Sure Comfort Insulin Syringes are used for administering insulin injections to patients with diabetes. The syringe is designed to be used with U-100 insulin and features a 29 gauge needle that is 1/2 inch in length. The total capacity of the syringe is 0.3 mL.
To use the syringe, first, the patient or caregiver should wash their hands and gather all necessary supplies, including the insulin vial, alcohol wipes, and a sharps container. Next, the seal on the insulin vial should be cleaned with an alcohol wipe, and the appropriate amount of air should be injected into the vial using the plunger. The vial is then held upside down, and the needle is inserted through the rubber stopper. The patient or caregiver then draws the desired amount of insulin into the syringe by pulling back on the plunger.
Before administering the injection, the patient should also clean the injection site with an alcohol wipe. The syringe should be held like a pencil and the needle should be inserted at a 90-degree angle into the cleaned injection site. The plunger is then pushed to inject the insulin into the subcutaneous tissue. Once the injection is complete, the needle is withdrawn from the skin. The syringe should be disposed of safely in a sharps container.
It is important to follow proper injection techniques and rotate injection sites to minimize any discomfort or risk of infection. Always consult with a healthcare professional for specific instructions on using insulin syringes and managing diabetes.
