agellan™ safety needles are unlike other safety devices on the market. These needle-based safety devices are designed to protect the healthcare worker from accidental needlestick injuries.
Safe and convenient preattached Safety Needle and Syringe Combinations are also available.
Because more than 40% of needlestick injuries happen after use1, we designed Cardinal Health™ Monoject™ Magellan™ Safety Needles to keep patients and clinicians safe at every step. Magellan™ Safety Needles are engineered to comply with OSHA regulations and help you standardize solutions across every job with one safety technology. Intuitive, easy-to-use design offers protection with just the push of a finger, improving clinician comfort and confidence with less follow-up training.
- Easy to use, practical and intuitive one-handed activation via multiple methods (finger, thumb or surface) for clinical flexibility
- Even if bent inadvertently, safety shield provides 360-degree protection after activation to improve safety during use and downstream workers after disposal
- Audible and tactile click confirms safety activation and ready to be discarded in an approved sharps container
- Safety shield is an integral part of the needle hub, reducing the possibility of removal in accordance with OSHA standards
- Bevel orientation facilitates injection technique; if the safety shield faces up, the needle bevel also faces up
- Inspected multiple times throughout the manufacturing process to ensure optimum quality
- Designed to simplify safety technology standardization throughout your facility
- Not manufactured with DEHP or natural rubber latex
- Sterile, single-use and individually package
