Huber needles are used to administer chemotherapy, antibiotics, and TPN through an implanted IV port. These needles may be left in the port for many days at a time. It can be difficult to deaccess, or extract the needle safely. The difficulty of pulling the needle out often creates a recoil action with the clinician often getting a needle stuck into the stabilizing hand. A Safety Huber needle retracts or shields the needle the needle upon removal from the implanted port preventing the potential of recoil resulting in an accidental needlestick.
