Abstract: KRISHNA INJECTION SYRINGE can be used by health practitioners to reduce risk of needle injury during recapping. The said invention will come in handy for routine clinical work as well as for students. The risk of injury during recapping and cumbersome method of recapping will be eliminated. Medical students and nurses who are at risk of needle injury because of their clinical inexperience will be controlled. The said invention will overcome the limits of conventional injection syringe like: a) Risk of getting pierced by needle syringe. b) Cumbersome and time consuming single handed scooping technique during recapping. c) Uncapped needles are not safe for transportation. Thus by using KRISHNA INJECTION SYRINGE the above limitations are overcome & injection recapping and transportation becomes safe. Thus the said invention can prove to be safe and cost effective alternative to prevent needle injuries.
Claims:1. The KRISHNA INJECTION SYRINGE comprises of:
a) Plunger (1)
b) Barrel (2)
c) Push protector sheath (3)
d) Pusher (4)
e) Needle adapter (5)
f) Needle hub (6)
g) Needle shaft (7)
h) Bevel (8)
i) Protective cover (9)
j) Cap (10)
which works as follows-
The KRISHNA INJECTION SYRINGE has a barrel (2) which is a hollow cylinder that holds the medication. Barrel has calibrations on the outer surface to measure the medication. The barrel is fitted with push protector sheath (3) which has a pusher (4) which helps to easily slide the push protector sheath back and forth. The plunger (1) fits in the barrel and is moved back and forth. Pulling back on the plunger draws medications or air into the syringe. Pushing in the plunger (1) forces air or medication out of the syringe. The other end of the barrel has a needle adapter (5) to which a needle hub (6) is attached which holds the needle shaft (7) with bevel (8). A protective sheath with a pusher (4) at its base encapsulated the barrel (2). Push protector sheath (3) helps in recapping the syringe rapidly and easily by pressing the pusher (4). The cap (10) is fitted on the other end of push protector sheath which helps in completely encapsulate the needle syringe. If required protective cover (9) can be applied to the needle end prior to application of the cap (10) which ensures complete double security and safety.

3. PREAMBLE TO THE DESCRIPTION:
The following complete specification particularly describes the nature of this invention and the manner in which it is to be performed:
4. TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to medical sciences. This invention is directed towards structuring of injection syringe so as to reduce the risk of needle injuries during recapping. Thus using this KRISHNA INJECTION SYRINGE we can reduce the risk of needle injuries during recapping and reduce risk of infection from contaminated needles.
5. Prior Art:
Needle stick injuries are wounds caused by needles that accidently puncture the skin. WHO estimates that 2 million needle stick injuries occur per year. A considerable percentage of these occur during recapping. The risk is greatest amongst medical students taking their first steps in the medical profession. Recapping needles puts personnel at risk for an accidental needle stick injuries. Recapping is a procedure to insert the syringe needle tip deep into the plastic protective cap and secure it in place. A needle stick injury from a contaminated needle can result in infection of blood borne virus, especially viruses that causes AIDS (Human Immunodeficiency Virus), Hepatitis B virus (HBV), Hepatitis C virus (HCV) and other blood borne pathogens. So until now most routinely recapping of syringe was avoided, whenever possible needles were disposed immediately without recapping them. If recapping was necessary in situations like when the patient needed to be injected several times in a single procedure, injecting to an uncooperative patient, if there is delay in use of injection or there is need to transport the syringe before or after the administration. In these situations if recapping was to be done then single-handed scoop technique was used. Single-handed recapping process is the process in which the cap should not be held by the other hand during the capping process.
Drawbacks of routine Single-handed recapping technique:
1) It increases the risk of getting pierced by needle
2) As scooping by single hand takes time so this technique is time consuming
3) During single-handed scoop technique the cap should be placed on flat surface for ease of capping, which may not be possible always.
4) Uncapped needles are not safe for transportation.
Drawbacks of routine roller protector syringe :
1) Protective shield is not handy and so recapping may take time
2) As needle end remains open it is not completely encapsulated.
3) As needle remains open, it is a hazardous during transporting.
6. Objective:
The main objective of the present invention is to provide a novel machine which aids in Reduces risk of needle stick injury.
Yet another object of the present invention is to overcome drawbacks of single-handed capping technique.
Yet another object of the present invention is to make recapping easy and safe.
Yet another object of the present invention is to reduce risk of uncapped syringe.
Yet another object of the present invention is to make it simple to use.
Yet another object of the present invention is to make recapping using this special structured syringe can be done rapidly and easily without much time consumption.
Yet another object of the present invention is to make the cap encapsulates the syringe completely and maintains hygiene.
7. Statement:
Hence the invention of this new device ‘KRISHNA INJECTION SYRINGE’ was made to overcome the drawbacks in the following ways:
The said invention overcomes these drawbacks in the following way:
1) Reduces risk of needle stick injury.
2) Overcomes drawbacks of single-handed capping technique.
3) Makes recapping easy and safe.
4) Reduces risk of uncapped syringe.
5) It is simple to use.
6) Recapping using this special structured syringe can be done rapidly and easily without much time consumption.
7) The cap encapsulates the syringe completely and maintains hygiene.
Advantages:
This device is time saving and cheaper. It helps in applying effective force required for recapping of syringe. Makes recapping simple, easy and safe. Recapping using this special structured syringe can be done rapidly and easily without much time consumption. The cap encapsulates the syringe completely and maintains hygiene. This reduces risk of needle stick injury. Since needle stick injuries are more common in health care providers this syringe can prove useful in reducing risk.
Working of the device:
The said invention works in the following manner:
1) The syringe barrel has an outer tubular covering which can be pushed out or pulled in with the help of a pusher. The pusher is a small knob like elevation on the protection capsule.
2) At the free end of the protector sheath, a cap is placed.
3) The user has to remove the cap, and pull the pusher inwards with her thumb to expose the needle.
4) Once the filling of medication and injection procedure is over, the user pushes the pusher, thereby pushing out the protector sheath.
5) The free end can be again capped thereby securing the needle.
6) The protective sheath is made up of transparent material thereby not impeding with the visibility of the markings of the barrel.
