Abstract

A needle protective assembly (10) in which a slidable sheath (38) is mounted over a barrel (20) which, in turn, encircles a needle (12). The sheath (38) is adapted to slide along the barrel (20), and cover the needle (12) after use, protecting against accidental needlesticks. The inner barrel (20) is integrally formed with a hub (22) in which the needle (12) is mounted, and which may be used to attach the inventive protective assembly (10) to a blood collection vial holder (54), or a hypodermic syringe, depending upon the application. In some embodiments, the protective assembly (10) may also be formed integrally with either the blood collection vial holder (54), or the hypodermic syringe.
