<p>A needle protection holder (10) encloses an automatically retractable safety syringe (12) and needle (14) within a tubular cylinder (16) after the needle (14) has been used. Its intended purpose is to remove a needle (14) attached to a syringe (12) from a patient, both human and animal, thereby containing the needle (14) safely within the holder (10) or cylinder (16). With such a construction, the holder (10) prevents the exchange of bodily fluids caused by needle sticks (14) which are known to cause serious illnesses including death to medical technicians and personnel. <IMAGE></p> |
