Product Overview
Needle-stick injury is one of the most preventable healthcare hazards, and the risk is amplified in field medical settings where providers are working under stress, in poor lighting, and without the bench-space organization of a clinical environment. The NAR Sharps Shuttle addresses this risk with a purpose-built, point-of-use sharps container designed to fit seamlessly into tactical medical carry systems.
The tapered cylindrical body (1.25 in diameter × 6.5 in length) fits snugly into the NAR Medic Leg-Rig™ or Trauma Pack, keeping the Sharps Shuttle accessible at the point of IV or IO procedure without occupying valuable kit space. The vertical "point-first" entry design guides needles into the container with the sharp end down, reducing the risk of hand contact with the needle tip during one-handed disposal. The clear/translucent body allows immediate visual assessment of fill level, prompting replacement before the container is overloaded. The quick-tab locking snap cap secures the container against accidental opening during movement.
The Sharps Shuttle is single-use and should be sealed with the quick-tab lock and disposed of as biohazardous waste after use, following applicable sharps disposal regulations. It accommodates needles, catheters, and small syringes from IV access procedures — particularly useful alongside the NAR Saline Lock Kit (30-0013) and during IO access procedures using the SAM IO Driver.
