NO-POKESm is a disposable needle recapping aid that helps prevent recapping injury by providing repository for the needle cap (other than the user's hand) in which to place the cap while using the syringe. This keeps the user's hand away from the needle during uncapping and recapping.
The cap of the capped needle is placed in the NO-POKESTM. The "wax-like" substance in the NO-POKESTM holds the cap securely while the operator uses the needle. After the procedure, while the cap is secured in the NO-POKESTM, the operator inserts the needle back into the cap without exposing hislher hand to the needle. The NO-POKESm container has an adhesive on the base to hold it to the desired surface while in use.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA 510(k) statement.
