HP Thermal Inkjet Technology put to medical use to give you painless injection

HP Thermal Inkjet Technology put to medical use to give you painless injectionI’m totally not aware that HP is into some medical research. HP has been known to us that they’re kind of focus in the computer industry, especially on their inkjet-printer technology. Anyway, due to their in-depth expertise on the inkjet-printer technology, they’ve managed to develop a medical patch that makes use of the thermal inkjet technology found in printers, which gives no pain at all when administering drugs to a patient.

The drug patch uses microneedles to inject drugs below the patient’s skin. These microneedles are so tiny that they won’t trigger any nerve endings in the skin while injecting drug to a patient. The drug patch is also programmable that allows to control precisely the amount and timing of each drug to be delivered. This is the great news for those with a phobia of needle injection. Now, you should be more daring for a shot!
