  • THREADED PLUNGER SYRINGES WITH TACTILE FEEDBACK
    Publication number: 20240157058
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to threaded plunger syringes with tactile feedback mechanisms and method of using such syringes. The syringes can include a first configuration, wherein the threads of the threaded plunger are engaged by the syringe such that fluid delivery can be precisely controlled, and a second configuration, wherein the threads of the threaded plunger are not engaged such that the syringe can act similar to that of a conventional plunger syringe. In addition, the syringes can include a tactile feedback mechanism that provides tactile feedback when a predetermined amount of fluid volume is dispersed.
