Handling and organising prefilled syringes in hospitals and nursing homes

  • Schwarz Pflegesysteme

Prefilled syringes play an important role in medicine. They allow medication to be administered quickly and precisely, which can be crucial in hectic situations such as emergencies or when caring for a large number of patients. But how can the preparation and storage of these syringes be organised effectively and safely? In this article, we give you some helpful tips and present our innovative solutions.

1. Handling prefilled syringes

Careful handling of prefilled syringes is essential to ensure patient safety. Here are some basic rules:

  • Storage: prefilled syringes should always be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Hygiene: always observe hygiene rules before use. Disinfect your hands and only work with clean gloves.
  • Checks: before use, the syringes should be checked for expiry date, intact packaging and clarity of the liquid.

2. Organisation during preparation

Preparing prefilled syringes can become a challenging task, especially when large quantities are involved. A structured and clearly arranged organisation is therefore of great importance.
This is where the specially developed trays from Schwarz Pflegesysteme come into play:

  • Tray for 8 syringes: ideal for smaller units or specialised departments.
  • Tray for 18 syringes: perfect for larger wards or when several different medications are being prepared.

Both trays are designed to:

  • provide a clear overview of all prepared syringes.
  • increase safety with the optional stacking lid, which provides hygienic protection and allows the trays to be stacked.
  • enable personalised labelling thanks to the proven labelling film system located beneath the insert.
