2. Birmingham gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birmingham_gauge

   Smaller gauge numbers indicate larger outer diameters. [4] Inner diameter depends on both gauge and wall thickness. The following chart shows nominal inner diameter and wall thickness for regular-wall needles. [4] [5] Thin-wall needles (not shown) have identical outer diameters but larger inner diameters for a given gauge.

3. Hypodermic needle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypodermic_needle

   Various needle lengths are available for any given gauge. Needles in common medical use range from 7 gauge (the largest) to 34 (the smallest). 21-gauge needles are most commonly used for drawing blood for testing purposes, and 16- or 17-gauge needles are most commonly used for blood donation, as the larger luminal cross-sectional area results ...

4. Injector pen - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injector_pen

   Today, pen needles are manufactured at shorter needle lengths than required for typical vial and syringe administration, which decreases the pain associated with injection. [2] They are available in multiple lengths and gauge of needle , including 3.5mm, 4mm, 5mm, and 8mm lengths, and 31 through 34 gauge. [ 8 ]

5. Subcutaneous administration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subcutaneous_administration

   The gauge of the needle used can range from 25 gauge to 27 gauge, while the length can vary between 1 ⁄ 2-inch to 5 ⁄ 8-inch for injections using a syringe and needle. [ 3 ] : 722 For subcutaneous injections delivered using devices such as injector pens , the needle used may be as thin as 34 gauge (commonly 30–32 gauge), and as short as 3 ...

   The boxes contain sterile needles as well as other supplies necessary to reduce the risk of spreading blood borne pathogens. [17] This is a pilot program for increasing injection safety and, if successful, may expand to other areas of the United States. Although this is a new idea in the United States, it was tested in Europe over 20 years ago.

7. Winged infusion set - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winged_infusion_set

   It consists, from front to rear, of a hypodermic needle, two bilateral flexible "wings", flexible small-bore transparent tubing (often 20–35 cm long), and lastly a connector (often female Luer). This connector attaches to another device: e.g. syringe , vacuum tube holder/hub, or extension tubing from an infusion pump or gravity-fed infusion ...
