ABSTRACT:
A needle protector having a body, a needle hub and a needle. The body includes a first end and a second end. The body consists of a hollow elongated cylinder defined by a continuous wall having a channel extending between the first and second ends. The continuous wall defines a recess adjacent the first end. The needle hub is movably mounted on the body. The needle hub has an external portion, an internal portion and a tracking member extending between the external portions. The tracking member is positioned in the channel. The external portion includes a single locking arm adapted to be received by the recess and the second end. The needle is mounted in the internal portion of the needle hub. Movement of the needle hub from the first end to the second end results in corresponding movement of the needle into the body until the locking arm engages the second end thereby preventing movement of the needle hub and the needle from the second end to the first end of the body.
