SAFETY DEVICE FOR A SYRINGE

摘要

A syringe safety device comprises telescoping inner and outer members. The members include complementary projections and recesses to limit the full extension of the inner member and to lock the inner member in place once it has been fully extended. The inner member includes a ring at the distal end which extends radially outward of the outer member and is pushed against to deploy the inner member. The outer member is secured to the proximal flange of a syringe received within the safety device. A clip or cover is attached to the outer member and secures the outer member to the syringe flange.
