Medical Syringe (Hypo Needles)

Sunday, June 15, 2008


Hypodermic syringes are utilized with hypodermic needles to introduce liquid or gases into body tissues, or to take out from the body. Injecting of air into a blood vessel is unwanted, as it may cause an air embolism; preventing embolisms by removing air from the syringe is one of the reasons for the recognizable image of holding a hypodermic syringe upside down, beating it, and expelling a small amount of liquid before an injection into the bloodstream. However, the chief reason air bubbles are removed from the syringe preceding to injection is to make sure an exact dosage is delivered.
