Vancouver, BC – Pyng Medical is proud to announce that its award-winning FAST1 Intraosseous Infusion System no longer requires a remover tool. The new FAST1 is removed simply by grasping the new, blue-tipped infusion tube and firmly pulling. The product upgrade was made in response to feedback from FAST1TM users based on their experiences in the field.
“Through Pyng’s ongoing commitment to technology innovation, we’ve made use of our market-leading FAST1 Intraosseous Infusion System even more simple. We look forward to showcasing further developments in our next generation product at leading industry events later this year,” said David Christie, President and CEO.

With its unique sternal site, FAST1 insertion is complete within 10 seconds and drugs reach the patient’s heart in less than 20 seconds.

Designed as a single use device, FAST1 ensures no risk of cross-contamination.
The new FAST1, is now available worldwide.
