Genkl Control Syringe

Hypodermic syringe use requires skill, confidence, and accurate operation (e.g. a controlled compression of a syringe plunger). Simultaneously, precise control of the needle location and depth is the key. It is very important to precisely accomplish both the distal (injecting) stroke, e.g. to determine whether the needle is in a blood vessel, and the proximal (aspirating) stroke.

Existing syringes typically have limited plunger and barrel body surfaces used to grasp, operate and control dispensing of the syringe content, which syringe surfaces typically minimally accommodate the diverse finger sizes, or have any structure to enhance the operation and control of the syringe by the user.

The Genkl control hypodermic syringe and Genkl attachment to hypodermic syringe includes finger-holding surfaces that substantially or completely surround the operator finger and include an interior portion to better engage a finger, which facilitates one-handed use by allowing the same hand that holds the syringe to operate the plunger conveniently to accomplish both the distal (injecting) stroke and the proximal (aspirating) stroke. This technology can be implemented with hypodermic and dental syringes.

This technology is currently protected by four US Patent. We have additionally filed three utility patent applications which cover additional inventions.
