22 gauge x 1.5" Soft Pack Hypodermic Needles with Polypropylene hub 100/Box
Hypodermic needles are essential tools in the medical field, used primarily for delivering medications, fluids, and vaccines directly into the body through various types of injections, such as subcutaneous, intramuscular, or intravenous. They play a crucial role in administering vaccines, helping prevent a range of diseases. Additionally, hypodermic needles are used to withdraw blood for testing, donation, or transfusion purposes, facilitating critical blood analysis and treatments. In the context of surgery, they are employed to administer anesthetics, providing pain relief either locally or generally. Beyond these uses, hypodermic needles are instrumental in obtaining biopsies, allowing healthcare professionals to extract tissue or fluid samples for diagnostic examination. Their design allows for precise and efficient delivery or extraction of substances, making them indispensable in medical diagnostics and treatments.
Hypodermic needles are used for a variety of medical purposes, including:
-
Administering Medications: They are commonly used to deliver medications directly into the body through subcutaneous, intramuscular, or intravenous injection.
-
Vaccinations: Hypodermic needles are used to administer vaccines to help prevent diseases.
-
Blood Withdrawal: They are used to draw blood for testing, donations, or transfusions.

-
Anesthesia: Hypodermic needles are used to administer local or general anesthetics.
