The Forum for Injection Technique (FIT) UK, which provides evidence-based best practice recommendations on diabetes injection technique, has published the latest edition of its UK Injection and ...

Scientists have demonstrated the ability to deliver a dried live vaccine to the skin without a traditional needle, and shown for the first time that this technique is powerful enough to enable ...

Researchers of the University of Twente, Netherlands, have developed a laser-driven micro-jet injection technology that does not require needles. Instead, an ultrafast liquid jet with the thickness of ...

Intramuscular injection remains a cornerstone of clinical practice, offering rapid drug absorption and efficacy when performed correctly. However, its success is intrinsically linked to precise ...

PharmaJet will deliver two presentations on October 27 focusing on current and future applications of their needle-free technology. The Tropis ® intradermal (ID) Needle-free Injection System overcomes ...

Objective—We aimed to establish the ideal injection techniques using 5-mm needles to reliably inject insulin into the subcutaneous fat in both children and adults and to quantify the associated pain ...
