What Physicians Say

It makes a cumbersome procedure easier for both the practitioner and the patient.

The A-Tap™ makes the injection procedure cleaner compared to standard care where needle hub is exposed and fluid may leak, especially when switching syringes is common.

Likely to do more aspirations with this device to remove fluid and increase drug concentration, improving efficiency of injection.
