According to the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA), an estimated 1,000,000 needle stick and cutting accidents occur annually among healthcare professionals in Europe. These incidents constitute a significant occupational risk due to potential exposure to bloodborne infections such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV.¹
For this reason, a European directive (2010/32/EU) was introduced in 2010, requiring healthcare employers to protect employees against sharp injuries and, where possible, to use safe medical devices.²
In response to this directive, the SteriFlow™ safety needles were designed. Compared to conventional injection needles, these safety needles feature a fully integrated safety system that shields the needle immediately after use. This aligns with the aforementioned directive.
The safety system is effortless and intuitive to use, ensuring that workflow interruptions are kept to a minimum. The immediate shielding of the needle helps reduce the risk of accidental contact after use and supports a safe working environment for healthcare providers.
