- The estimated cost of a single, high-risk needlestick injury is approximately $3,000, and more when follow-up testing and disability payments are factored in.
- NeedleZap® reduces the risk of catastrophic infection and the large associated costs.
- NeedleZap® reduces the lost time associated with needlestick accidents.
