MiniJect® is a versatile intramuscular (IM) auto-injector that is critically important when warfighters require medication, such as Ketamine, the battlefield anaesthetic of choice for casualties in severe pain/shock/respiratory distress, or at significant risk of these conditions. The DoD, following recommendations from the TCCC, has highlighted ketamine as a preferred alternative to morphine in the field. With MiniJect®, ketamine can be delivered faster, more accurately and reliably intramuscularly than via vial and syringe which is suboptimal for the chaos on the battlefield. MiniJect® is the size of a large thumb-drive and easily fits into a pocket or attaches to a belt. Its features - impact resistant, IR/UV-shielded, waterproof are well suited to austere conditions, including deployed settings and outside the wire operations.
