Invention of Needle Guard
Needle Guard (US Patent: 5,779,682) is a device that prevents accidental needle sticks. It is a protective plate that has multiple slits at its center. The slits allow the needle cap to position through the needle guard. When a misaligned needle tip misses the cap and heads towards the user’s hand, the Needle Guard shields the user’s fingers and protects them from possible sticking injury.

Dr. Steven Chang invented it to ensure the safety of our patients and our staff.
