Medline Blunt Fill Needle with Filter 18G | ConceptASR

Medline blunt fill needle with filter for syringe preparation

The Medline blunt fill needle with filter is designed to draw medication and other solutions during syringe preparation. It features an 18G gauge, a 1½-inch (3.81 cm) length and an integrated 5 µm filter.

The filter is the principal difference between SYR110022F and the standard non-filtered SYR110022 blunt fill needle. It helps retain particles that may be present in a solution during withdrawal, particularly when medication is drawn from a glass ampoule.

This product is intended for filling and transferring solutions. It must not be used to administer an injection to a patient.

Integrated 5 µm filter

When a glass ampoule is opened, very small glass particles may detach and come into contact with its contents. The integrated 5 µm filter helps prevent certain particles from passing into the syringe while the solution is being withdrawn.

This feature provides authorized healthcare professionals with a practical option when preparing medications from glass ampoules or when additional filtration is required during syringe filling.

The filter needle must be selected and used according to the medication, container, applicable professional protocols and manufacturer instructions.

Blunt tip for solution withdrawal

The blunt tip is designed for filling and transferring solutions rather than performing an injection. It allows professionals to prepare syringes without using a sharp hypodermic point during the filling process.

When used with a compatible vial stopper, its blunt design also helps prevent coring. Coring occurs when a small piece of the stopper becomes dislodged while the vial is being punctured.

After the solution has been withdrawn, the filter needle must be removed. If the medication is to be administered, a qualified professional must install an appropriate administration needle based on the procedure being performed.

Compatible with standard Luer-lock syringes

The Medline blunt fill needle with filter works with most standard Luer-lock syringes. The connection helps secure the needle to a compatible syringe before the solution is drawn.

This compatibility makes the filtered needle easy to integrate with supplies already used in medical clinics, podiatry practices, nursing services, home healthcare and other professional settings.

The professional must verify the connection and suitability of the device before use.

Sterile and single-use

Each needle is supplied sterile and comes with a protective cap. The cap helps protect the device before use and reduce the risk of damage or accidental contact during handling.

This product is intended for one-time use only. Using a new needle for every preparation helps reduce the possibility of cross-contamination.

The individual package must be inspected before use. Do not use the needle if its packaging is open, damaged or appears compromised.

After use, the needle must be discarded in an appropriate sharps container according to the healthcare facility’s procedures and applicable requirements.
