How does the Pro Tector Needle Sheath Prop meet recommendations for sharps safety?
OSHA and the CDC recommend safety devices to facilitate one handed recapping while giving injections. Pro Tector Needle Sheath Prop is a disposable card that promotes this practice. The simple design encourages compliance.
Pro Tector Needle Sheath Prop promotes the safe work practice of one handed re-capping by holding the cap securely and providing a stable target. (Using the “scoop” technique may contaminate or bend the needle.) In addition, the Pro Tector Needle Sheath Prop provides protection during injections by keeping the hand behind a barrier when removing the cap and during disassembly in case the cap is accidentally dislodged from the needle
