Okay that answered my question. Yes some of our needles are connected to syringes, and some are not. I don’t even know if some supplies are from US. We get weird resupply with what seems like leftover supplies and often get stuck with luer lock saline locks but no luer lock syringes to push meds with so I was just trying to figure out if the luer lock saline lock adapter could be used for both needles and needless system. Thank you all.

So are you saying you can use a needle setup and just put it in a needless port and inject meds, or it has to be given IM or SQ? Sorry, it so difficult to ask equipment questions through a forum when you can’t explain it very well. ?

What about the needless adapters (iv hubs), are there any you can also use a needle on if need be? I ask because the facility I work at often has both kinds of syringes (luer lock and only ones that can be used with a needle). Its frustrating because we run out of the luer lock syringes often and I can’t use a normal syringe with a needle on the needless adapter to give meds. We are overseas so resupply is limited as well as options for resupply.

Has anyone ever heard of a needless system that you are also able to use needles on if you don’t have a luer lock syringe available?
