About this study

Official title: Assessment of Safety and Efficacy of EZ-Ject Injector a Novel Device for Pain-Free Subcutaneous Automatic Injection in Healthy Volunteers

Subcutaneous injections are a widely used method for drug delivery. One of its major drawbacks is the pain inflicted during the process. Sindolor has developed the chemical-free EZ-Ject Injector device, based on employing cutaneous local anesthesia on the injection site by an electronic anesthetic system. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of the EZ-Ject for subcutaneous injections.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Study primary goal is to evaluate the safety of using the EZ-Ject Injector device for subcutaneous injections.The safety of using the EZ-Ject Injector device will be established by paucity of major complications that are device-related.

    Measured: immediately

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Study secondary goal is to asses the efficacy of using the EZ-Ject Injector device. Efficacy will be assessed by alleviating injection pain. Subjective discomfort and pain will be assessed by analogue pain scale (VAS Scale).

    Measured: immediately
