Intradermal Adapter for Disposable Syringes

West Pharmaceutical Services, Inc

West introduces the ID adapter, a 510K-cleared intradermal adapter for disposable syringes. The adapter is designed to help improve the consistency and reliability of intradermal injections for vaccines and other injectable drugs by guiding the angle and limiting the depth of needle insertion. Correctly administered ID injections can help conserve the supply of high-value vaccines and the ID adapter provides an alternative to the Mantoux method, which requires extensive training and experience. This injection aid technology is designed for use with 1 mL disposable syringes.
