2-piece disposable syringe, 5 mL, eccentric Luer slip, without needle
Description
The BD Discardit™ II 5 mL Eccentric Tip Syringe (REF 309050) is a sterile, single-use, latex-free, 2-piece syringe without needle intended for injection and/or aspiration of medical fluids, including bodily fluids (e.g. blood) and drugs. It consists of a clear polypropylene barrel and a polyethylene plunger rod, with an amide lubricant incorporated into the barrel material to provide smooth plunger movement without a rubber stopper. The syringe features an eccentric Luer slip tip that allows low-angle injections close to the skin, a clear, easy-to-read graduation scale (0.2 mL) and finger flanges designed to improve stability and comfort during injection. It is CE-marked as a Class I sterile measuring device and supplied in boxes of 100 syringes.
Bnefits
- Medical single-use syringe specifically intended for both injection and aspiration of medical fluids, including bodily fluids and drugs.
- 2-piece design (barrel and plunger) with lubricant incorporated into the barrel material provides smooth plunger movement and reduced sliding force without the need for a rubber stopper.
- Clear and transparent barrel ensures excellent visualisation of syringe contents for accurate fluid measurement and dosing.
- Accurate, wipe-resistant graduation scale (0.2 mL increments on the 5 mL size) supports precise dosing and easy reading.
- Eccentric Luer slip tip enables lower angle injections in close proximity to the skin, improving access for certain anatomical sites and procedures.
- Finger grip flanges are shaped to enhance stability and user comfort during injection or aspiration procedures.
- Retaining ring at the end of the barrel helps prevent accidental plunger rod withdrawal, reducing the risk of spills and loss of sterility (as described for Discardit II range).
- Latex-, PVC- and DEHP-free construction reduces exposure to these materials for sensitive patients and staff.
- Sterile, single-use, EO-sterilised device supports infection prevention when used with appropriate aseptic technique.
- Syringes are tested during manufacture in compliance with ISO 7886-1 to ensure leak-tightness and performance.
Indications
- Injection and/or aspiration of medical fluids, including bodily fluids (e.g. blood) and medicinal products, from vials, ampoules, and parts of the body below the surface of the skin when used with an appropriate needle or device.
- General purpose use as a measuring syringe for preparation, transfer and administration of small volumes of fluids (up to 5 mL) in medical and laboratory settings.
- Use in routine clinical procedures where a 5 mL syringe with eccentric Luer slip connection is appropriate and a 2-piece syringe without rubber stopper is preferred.
- Single-use applications in hospitals, clinics, GP surgeries, laboratories and other healthcare environments where sterile disposable syringes are required.
Composition
- Barrel: Polypropylene.
- Plunger rod: Polyethylene.
- Lubricant: Amide-based solid lubricant incorporated into the barrel material (oleamide), enabling smooth plunger movement without silicone oil.
- Tip: Eccentric Luer slip (Luer taper) plastic tip integrated with the polypropylene barrel.
- Packaging – unit pack: Polyamide/polyethylene web (blister) with medical-grade paper sterile barrier.
- Packaging – shelf/carton: Cardboard carton outer box.
- Materials of concern: Does not contain DEHP (di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate) or other phthalates as per technical data; does not contain natural rubber latex; does not contain Bisphenol A; does not contain PVC.
- Animal-origin substances: May contain very small amounts of tallow-derived additives (e.g. stearates in polymers) but these are not considered derivatives of animal tissues under relevant EU guidance for TSE/BSE.
Formulation
- Syringe capacity: 5 mL.
- Design: 2-piece syringe (barrel and plunger), without rubber stopper.
- Tip type: Eccentric Luer slip tip, providing a friction-fit connection to compatible needles and devices.
- Graduation scale: 0.2 mL increments on the 5 mL barrel.

Usage
- Use only by trained personnel familiar with syringe handling, injection and aspiration techniques, and local clinical protocols.
- Before use, check the individual sterile package for damage, integrity of the sterile barrier and clear legibility of product information; do not use if the pack is opened, damaged or past the expiry date.
- Open the unit pack aseptically and remove the syringe, taking care not to touch or contaminate the Luer slip tip or internal surfaces.
- Attach an appropriate sterile needle or device to the eccentric Luer slip tip by pushing onto the taper and twisting to ensure a secure friction-fit connection.
- When drawing up fluids, pull the plunger back smoothly to aspirate the required volume, verifying the dose against the graduation scale and removing air bubbles according to local procedures.
- For injection, expel any air, position the needle or device according to the clinical technique required, and depress the plunger at a controlled rate to deliver the medication or fluid.
- For aspiration of bodily fluids, apply negative pressure via the plunger while ensuring the needle or device remains correctly positioned, then remove the device safely when the procedure is complete.
- Do not use with syringe pumps, as specified by multiple distributors and technical descriptions (manual use only).
- After use, activate any needle safety features where applicable and dispose of the syringe (and needle) immediately in accordance with local sharps and clinical waste regulations.
- Do not attempt to clean, reprocess or resterilise; the syringe is intended strictly for single use.
- Always follow applicable institutional policies, the BD Discardit™ II technical data sheet and any national guidelines for safe injection and aspiration practices.
Contraindications
- Do not use if the sterile packaging is broken, opened, damaged or shows any sign of compromise.
- Do not reuse, reprocess or resterilise; reuse may lead to infection, loss of performance or inaccurate dosing.
- Not suitable for use with syringe pumps; the product is specified for manual use only.
- Do not use with fluids or solvents that are known to be incompatible with polypropylene or polyethylene; verify compatibility before use with non-standard solutions.
- Do not use in patients or settings where an alternative connector (e.g. Luer-Lok) is specifically required for safety or pressure-related reasons.
- Although latex-free and PVC-free, avoid use in individuals with known hypersensitivity to polypropylene, polyethylene or amide lubricants if such sensitivities are clinically relevant.
- Do not use as an implantable or indwelling device.
Adverse Effects
- Potential infection or local inflammation if aseptic technique is not followed or if the syringe is reused contrary to instructions.
- Risk of dosing inaccuracies if the graduation scale is misread or if the wrong syringe size is selected for the required volume.
- Tissue trauma, pain or bruising related to the associated needle or injection technique rather than the syringe itself.
- Possible fluid leakage or disconnection if the Luer slip connection is not properly seated or if incompatible devices are used.
- Very rare risk of local or systemic reactions related to material sensitivity, although the device is latex-free, PVC-free and DEHP-free.
Storage Conditions
- Store in a dry, reasonably warm place and not exposed to strong or direct light, as recommended in the technical data sheet.
- Keep in original, unopened packaging until use to maintain sterility and protect from contamination.
- Avoid extreme temperatures and large temperature fluctuations that could affect packaging integrity or material properties.
- Protect cartons and unit packs from crushing, tearing or other mechanical damage.
- Do not use after the expiry date printed on the packaging.
Duration
Single-use device intended for one episode of injection and/or aspiration or one medication/fluid preparation and administration. It is not designed for continuous or long-term use; overall treatment duration is determined by the clinical regimen, not by the syringe.
Onset
Not directly applicable to the device; the syringe provides an immediate means to deliver or withdraw fluids once used. The clinical onset of effect depends on the medication or fluid administered and the route of administration rather than on the syringe itself.
