Inviro Medical Devices to Exhibit at American Society of Health-System Pharmacists Midyear Event
First Time Inviro Will Demonstrate Infection Control Products for ASHP Members
ATLANTA – December 4, 2006 – Inviro Medical Devices, a leading manufacturer of infection control products, including the innovative InviroSNAP!®
Safety Syringe, will demonstrate its Inviro Safety System at the 41st
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP) Midyear Clinical
Meeting and Exhibition. The ASHP meeting is scheduled December 3-7,
2006, in Anaheim, California.
Pharmacists and other attendees
are invited to visit Booth 3246 to speak with Gareth Clarke, chief
executive officer of Inviro Medical Devices, and to participate in
demonstrations of the company’s fixed and exchangeable needle systems.
Booth activities will showcase the patented InviroSNAP! Fixed Needle
Safety Syringe and the InviroSNAP Exchangeable Combinations, which
include the InviroLINK Vial Access Plastic Cannula and the InviroSTRIPE
syringe with the patented “write-on” stripe. The syringes are available
in a range of sizes from 1 to 5 ml (up to 10 ml for the exchangeable
system and 60ml for the InviroSTRIPE Luer Lock Syringes). Unlike most
safety syringes that are retro-fitted with add-on pieces, the safety
feature is integral to the design, enhancing infection control and
protection from needlestick injuries.
“We are eager to
introduce attendees of the American Society of Health-System
Pharmacists to the Inviro Safety System and its flagship infection
control product, the InviroSNAP! Safety Syringe,” said Clarke. “This
medical device creates a significant new segment – manually retractable
technology – in the safety syringe market. It is cost effective and
easy to use for pharmacists filling syringes, as well as for use by
nurses.” During the ASHP meeting, Clarke will be interviewed by Pharmacy Purchasing and Products magazine.
