The 31G – 8mm Short Ultra Fine Pen Needle is a type of insulin pen needle that is commonly used for subcutaneous injections of medications, particularly insulin. It has a gauge size of 31G, which indicates the thickness of the needle, and a length of 8mm (5/16 inch).
The needle is designed to be ultra-fine, allowing for a more comfortable injection experience. It may feature special lubrication for reduced friction and a fine point needle tip for easier insertion. The 31G – 8mm Short Ultra Fine Pen Needle is compatible with most insulin pens.
To use the 31G – 8mm Short Ultra Fine Pen Needle, ensure you have the correct medication and insulin pen ready for use. Follow the instructions provided by your healthcare professional or the medication packaging. Thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water before handling the pen needle and preparing for the injection. This helps maintain proper hygiene and reduce the risk of infection.
Remove the cap from the insulin pen and carefully screw on the 31G – 8mm Short Ultra Fine Pen Needle. Ensure it is securely attached but do not overtighten. Follow the specific instructions provided with your pen device to prime the pen and remove any air bubbles from the needle. This step helps ensure accurate dosage delivery.
Choose an appropriate injection site, typically the fatty tissue just under the skin on the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. Rotate injection sites to avoid developing lumps or skin reactions. Wipe the selected injection site with an alcohol swab and allow it to dry. This helps reduce the risk of infection. Hold the pen device like a pen or pencil and gently pinch the skin at the cleaned injection site. Insert the needle into the pinched skin at a 90-degree angle or as directed by your healthcare professional. Depress the plunger fully to inject the medication.
After the injection, carefully remove the needle from the injection site by pulling it straight out. Do not recap the needle. Safely dispose of the used needle in a sharps container as per local regulations and guidelines. Do not re-cap, bend, or break the needle to avoid accidental injuries.

After use, the needle should be safely disposed of in a sharps container. Do not re-cap, bend, or break the needle before disposal to avoid accidental needlestick injuries. Local regulations and guidelines should be followed for safe disposal.
Compatibility may vary depending on the specific pen device. Check the compatibility of the needle with your pen device to ensure proper functioning and dosage accuracy.
Some general precautions include proper injection site rotation, following proper hygiene practices, and consulting with a healthcare professional for personalized advice. Additionally, individuals may experience skin reactions or allergic reactions to the materials used in the needle construction.
