Abstract

A syringe is disclosed. The syringe may include a syringe body, a first slot formed in the syringe body, a first sleeve covering the first slot, a thumb grip including a first slot guide disposed in the first slot, the thumb grip shaped to slide from a first position near the distal end of the syringe body toward a second position near the proximal end of the syringe body, and a plunger disposed in the fluid chamber of the syringe body. The plunger is configured to move towards the proximal end of the syringe body in response to pressure applied by a user to the thumb grip and includes a first plunger slot guide.
