As awareness of medical safety continues to rise, the market demand for safety needles with anti-prick features is steadily growing, with adoption rates increasing by approximately 20% compared to the same period last year.

With growing awareness of medical safety, the market demand for safety needles equipped with anti-prick features continues to rise, with adoption rates increasing by approximately 20% compared to the same period last year. These safety needles are designed with enhanced protective mechanisms: once the injection is complete, the needle automatically retracts back into the syringe or is securely enclosed by a protective sheath, preventing healthcare workers from accidentally pricking themselves while disposing of used needles. This innovation significantly reduces the risk of contracting bloodborne infections such as hepatitis B and HIV.

According to research data, healthcare workers using traditional needles face an annual risk of accidental needlestick injuries ranging from 3% to 5%, whereas this risk drops to below 0.1% when safety needles designed to prevent such injuries are employed. However, since safety needles are slightly more expensive to produce than conventional ones, some primary-level medical facilities still have limited purchasing volumes. To address this issue, many regional medical insurance authorities have already included safety needles in their centralized procurement programs, leveraging bulk purchasing to drive down costs and accelerate their adoption across healthcare institutions at all levels.
