The invention relates to a needle guard (10) for a needle (12), in particular for a hypodermic needle of a medical apparatus, wherein the needle has a needle tip (14) and a needle shaft (16) and defines an axial direction. The needle guard comprises a base (20) portion having a hole (22) the dimensions of which are adapted to the needle shaft such that the needle may extend through the hole and move relative to the needle guard from a ready position in which the needle tip is outside the needle guard to a protective position in which the needle tip is covered by the needle guard, first (24) and second (26) arms extending distally from the base portion generally in the axial direction, each of the first and second arms having a main portion (28,34) and a distal end (30,36) portion, the main portion of the second arm including two outer arm sections (40) and an inner arm section (42), wherein the inner arm section is bent away from the first arm and the outer arm sections are bent towards the first arm, thereby defining a passage for the needle, which is axially aligned with the hole in the base portion. |
