Abstract
A syringe assembly includes a syringe barrel having a proximal end and a distal end, a needle hub supporting the needle and coupled to the distal end of the syringe barrel. An adapter is coupled to the hub where the needle extends from the adapter to define a length of the needle for injection as substance into the patient. The adapter has a diameter greater than a diameter of the syringe and has a distal face with a shape and dimension configured for controlling the depth of penetration of the needle into the patient and a proximal face forming a finger grip.
