Healthcare has transformed nearly every aspect of patient care over the past several decades. Hospitals now use robotic surgery, smart infusion pumps, artificial intelligence, electronic medication administration records, and advanced biologic therapies.

Yet one of the most commonly used medical devices the disposable syringe has remained fundamentally unchanged.

The QD Syringe…

Walk into any modern hospital and you'll see robotic surgery, artificial intelligence, precision medicine, computerized medication cabinets, electronic medical records, and highly sophisticated injectable biologic therapies.

Yet one of the most frequently used medical devices in healthcare remains remarkably similar to the syringe introduced decades ago.

This raises an important…

Every day, hospitals, surgery centers, infusion clinics, and physician offices administer millions of injectable medications. Most healthcare professionals focus on choosing the correct drug, verifying the correct dose, and ensuring patient safety. Far fewer stop to consider what happens to the medication that never reaches the patient.

The answer lies in a little-known design characteristic called…

A new disposable syringe with an integrated cone-shaped tip can completely extract costly medicines from rubber stopper vials and deliver them to patients effectively.



The QD Syringe Systems Quick Draw (QD) Syringe is a based on a solid polycarbonate dual-channel, draw-down tip which completely draws all medication out of a vial. An extended rubber nipple tip eliminates the dead space within the…

Basic Syringe Definition:

"A syringe is a simple piston pump consisting of a plunger that fits tightly in a tube. The plunger can be pulled and pushed along inside a cylindrical tube (the barrel), allowing the syringe to take in and expel a liquid or gas through an orifice at the open end of the tube. The open end of the…

Syringes are a surprising source of wasted medication

Better syringe design can save thousands of dollars per year

(Chapel Hill, N.C., June 6) – When medicine is injected, a little bit of it stays behind in the syringe. It’s not much, but depending on syringe design and the cost of the drug, this waste — or dead space — can…

QD Syringes are the next generation of basic disposable plastic syringes with detachable injection hubs with needles. The QD Syringe does not need a detachable draw needle to draw fluid inside of its barrel. The QD Syringe has an integrated poly-carbonate tip with Gly Flo Technology to accomplish this task. The QD Syringe is a low dead space syringe and has the sharpest…
