The rising incidence of injuries and infections caused by needles is likely to limit market development. Numerous blood-borne illnesses, including the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis B (HBV), among others, are caused by a variety of needlestick injuries. As a result, the use of hypodermic needles may result in injuries and infections. However, healthcare professionals are increasingly turning to disposable needles and syringes, which greatly minimizes the risk of disease transmission.
