Raumedic praised for needle injection system

Scooping a win at the DeviceMed Awards at Compamed 2014, Raumedic’s RauSafe is an injection system designed to protect against needle stick injuries. The DeviceMed Award was presented at Compamed for the third time.

RauSafe  has been designed to offer users and patients safe protection with easy, intuitive use. The safety system is activated after the injection by simply pushing it forwards. As soon as the needle is fully enclosed, the system latches permanently in the final position, which the user can hear and feel. The needle stick protection system can also be adapted to various existing syringes on the market and is built in such a compact way that it is frequently possible to retain the standard packaging. With RauSafe, this medical engineering company developed a needle stick protection device that differs significantly from the products available on the market. Other systems are either complicated and expensive or are simple but not sufficiently reliable.

Dr. Thomas Jakob, director of the moulding/pharma solutions business unit, accepted the prize on behalf of the project team. His thanks went out to his colleagues: "This is a great award for Raumedic. Without the team's excellent cooperation, it would not have been possible to realize this innovative system."
