The new IV needle, which is rigid at room temperature like a conventional one, softens when it is inserted and reaches body temperature. Bioengineers in South Korea have succeeded in developing an ...
A research team has developed an intravenous (IV) needle that softens upon insertion, minimizing risk of damage to blood vessels and tissues. Once used, it remains soft even at room temperature, ...
