Safety Huber Needle
Huber needles are used to administer chemotherapy, antibiotics, and TPN (Total Parenteral Nutrition) through an implanted IV port. These needles may be left in the port for many days at a time.
Why Safety Design Matters: It can be difficult to deaccess, or extract the needle safely. The difficulty of pulling the needle out often creates a recoil action, with the clinician often getting a needle stuck into the stabilizing hand. A Safety Huber needle retracts or shields the needle upon removal from the implanted port, preventing the potential of recoil resulting in an accidental needle-stick.
