Insuflon makes injections more
convenient & comfortable
Although some patients don't mind frequent daily injections, many
object to this painful inconvenience. For these people an alternative
may be Insuflon, an indwelling subcutaneous soft cannula. Insuflon
can be used by adults and children (even infants) and was initially
designed to help children and their families to come to terms
with diabetes. By virtually eliminating the needle pain associated
with daily injections, Insuflon can increase therapy compliance.
Currently, Insuflon is being used successfully in many specialties
throughout the hospital and at home to administer subcutaneous
medications.

Insuflon is gentle
Insuflon consists of a soft cannula that is gentle to the tissues.
It is small and easy to handle, only 18mm (0.71") long and
0.6mm (0.02") outer diameter.
Insertion of Insuflon is simple. It is inserted subcutaneously
into the fatty tissue of the body at a 30-45° angle. The steel
needle, which is used to introduce Insuflon, is then removed leaving
the soft cannula in place.
Insuflon has a small membrane through which medication can be
injected painlessly.

Insuflon is held in place by a skin-friendly adhesive with a built-in
see through window to allow visual inspection of the injection
site.
Insuflon is safe to use
The adhesive material is soft and comfortable to the tissue with
little risk that Insuflon will scrape or cause irritation.

the medications which are given subcutaneously: insulin, heparin,

Insuflon
: the cost effective solution
Insuflon can be left in the subcutaneous fatty tissue of the abdomen
for up to 7 days (maximum 4 days for insulin), thus the patient
will only need to prick their skin once i.e. when Insuflon is
inserted. Within the first few weeks of use, the optimal dwell
time for each patient will be established.
