<p>An arterial syringe safety vent that is dually optimized for needle safety and arterial blood degassing efficiency is presented. In an exemplary embodiment, the device of the present invention is self-supporting on a horizontal surface so that a degassing procedure can be performed single-handedly. The arterial syringe safety vent can include a housing adapted to receive a hypodermic needle; a needle lock to capture and retain the hypodermic needle; a venting portion; and a penetrable membrane adapted to allow the needle sealed access to the venting portion so that a blood sample can be safely purged. The arterial syringe safety vent can be adapted to receive a needle capture device in a manner that allows movement in relation to the needle capture device so that a needle secured within the needle capture device can penetrate the penetrable membrane and the arterial syringe safety vent can engage the needle capture device.</p> |
