Syringes – devices used to inject medication into or withdraw fluid from the body. Lancets, also called “fingerstick” devices – are instruments with a short, two-edged blade used to get drops of blood for testing.
Depending on the capacity of a syringe, its primary measurement-line markings may be in milliliters (e.g. 1mL, 2mL, 5mL, etc.) or fractions of a milliliter (e.g. 0.1mL, 0.2mL, 0.5mL, etc.). The larger the capacity of the syringe, the more space there will be in between the measurement lines.
