Syringe necklace | 18k gold vermeil
The syringe — the instrument through which most modern pharmacotherapy is delivered, the universal symbol of medical intervention.
The Syringe in Medicine
The modern hypodermic syringe, developed independently by Alexander Wood and Charles Pravaz in 1853, transformed medicine by enabling direct vascular and tissue delivery of drugs at precise doses. The syringe consists of a barrel (graduated cylinder), plunger, and needle hub. Needle gauge determines flow rate and tissue trauma: large-gauge needles (18G) are used for blood collection and IV access; fine-gauge needles (25–30G) for subcutaneous insulin and vaccine injection, minimising pain. The syringe is the vector of vaccination — one of the most high-leverage medical interventions in history. It is also the instrument of anaesthesia, of chemotherapy, and of the acute treatment of anaphylaxis, sepsis, and cardiac arrest.
