Pune Startup Unveils Needle-free Injection Device

The device administers medication through the skin using a high-pressure, hair-fine jet, eliminating the need for traditional needles.

Pune-based medtech startup IntegriMedical has unveiled a needle-free, spring-powered injection device aimed at making drug delivery safer and virtually painless.

The device administers medication through the skin using a high-pressure, hair-fine jet, eliminating the need for traditional needles.

Founded in 2020 by Sarvesh Mutha, Ankur Naik, Scott McFarland, and Mark Timm, the company seeks to address both patient needle phobia and healthcare worker safety risks.

“Needle phobia is more than just fear—it can cause patients to skip life-saving treatments,” said Sarvesh Mutha, Managing Director, IntegriMedical.

He added that the device also reduces the risk of needle-stick injuries and cross-contamination for healthcare professionals.

The Needle-Free Injection System (N-FIS) uses a stainless-steel piston and a disposable cartridge to deliver medication intramuscularly or subcutaneously in less than a tenth of a second.

“The result is a nearly painless experience that also reduces the risk of cross-contamination, tissue damage, and hazardous medical waste,” Mutha explained.
