Plunger syringes supplied with a needle permanently attached to their tip (e.g., cemented into glass syringes, glued in plastic syringes) that is not concentric (i.e., eccentric) with the barrel and that are designed to provide needlestick protection (safety). These syringes include some mechanism (manually positioned or activated) intended either to shield, blunt, or recess the needle after use or, by some other means, to lessen the possibility of contact of the healthcare provider with a sharp needle.
