Let me give a brief description about medical syringe.

What is a syringe?

Syringes are important medical tools and have been around for thousands of years. With the ongoing vaccination effort against COVID-19, you or a loved one may well have encountered one quite recently.

A syringe is a medical instrument for injecting or drawing off liquid, consisting of a hollow cylinder with a plunger inside and a thin hollow needle attached, or a similar device used in gardening, cooking, etc.

Parts of a syringe

The syringe is made up of three parts:

The needle

This is a sharp hollow tube which pierces the skin and enables medication to be injected into the body. The needle is the part of the syringe that some people find scary!

The barrel

This is where medicine is held in the barrel before injection and is usually transparent. Once the medication has been dispensed via the needle into the body, the medicine is no longer visible in the transparent barrel.

The plunger and piston

The plunger and piston work together to help control the amount of medicine that you receive for an injection.

Early syringes

Early syringes didn’t have needles and instead were used to apply medical ointment or to suction. The plunger portion could be pulled back to suction material or push out to apply medicine or liquid to an area. Syringes were used in early medicine to remove cataracts from the eye through suction and apply medicine through the skin.

Early needles took the form of hollow reeds, glass tubes and goose quills.

Alexander Wood, using his newly invented hypodermic syringe, was able to inject pain relief medicine into the area which was causing pain. His first patient was a woman experiencing neuralgia, which causes intense pain after nerve damage. She was injected at the site of her pain with the pain relief medicine mora. Mora was a mixture of sherry and morne, a powerful pain relief medicine.

Â

Coincidentally, French orthopaedic surgeon, Charles Gabriel Pravaz, invented the syringe at the same time. Despite inventing them in the same year (without ever meeting), Wood is credited with the invention of the syringe. Pravaz’s syringe was made of silver, as opposed to glass. This meant you could not see the contents, making it much harder to control the amount of medicine given to a patient. Pravaz’s plunger mechanism was also different than Wood’s, as rather than pushing down a plunger, Pravaz’s device used a screw. Â

What made this syringe different than others before is the ability to inject small, measured amounts into an area without creating a cut, or incision, in the skin first. The glass sides of Wood’s syringe made it easy to see the dosage, and the plunger allowed more control over dosage of the medication.

Soon the syringes were developed further, and measurements were added to the sides, allowing even more control. Before this, doses were often measured roughly, which means giving too much, or too little, of a medication to a patient. The design of syringes hasn’t changed since their invention.

Syringe material

Depending on their use, syringes are made of different types of material. Historically syringes were made of metal and glass. This allowed them to be used, cleaned, and re-used. Before an understanding of antiseptics this was a recipe to spread disease. But after the importance of sterilising equipment between patients was discovered, needles and syringes would be sterilised between uses. Today most syringes we see are plastic with stainless steel needles and are single use. This is to ensure each time they are used they are sterile and won’t spread disease.

Â

Reusing syringes

While plastic syringes are intended for single use, in some cases where materials are in short supply plastic syringes are re-used. This can cause the spread of disease, particularly Hepatitis and HIV. The K1 auto-disable syringe was invented in the late 1990s and can only be used once. After the plunger is pressed down it cannot be pulled back up, meaning it is truly single use. This syringe was invented to combat the spread of disease through needle reuse.

Modern syringes

The syringe we see today in use rolling out the COVID-19 vaccine very closely resembles historic ones in our collections. Modern syringes are used for a variety of purposes in medicine for both humans and animals for:

Injecting drugs into the body

Intravenous therapy into the bloodstream

Applying compounds like glue or lubricants

Measuring and drawing liquids
