cool.clickTM

photo of cool.clickBioject developed the cool.clickTM needle-free injection system for delivering Saizen® recombinant human growth hormone. In some children, naturally occurring growth hormone is absent or is produced in inadequate amounts. In these cases, Saizen® or growth hormone replacement must be injected to maintain normal growth.

cool.clickTM is a customized version of Bioject's VitajetTM 3 needle-free injection system. The system includes customized dosage features to accurately deliver variable doses of Saizen® and was designed with bright colors to make the injector attractive and non-threatening to children. The cool.clickTM received FDA market clearance for delivering subcutaneous injections of Saizen® in June, 2000.

The cool.clickTM works by the same principle as all of Bioject's needle-free injection systems: by forcing liquid medication through a tiny orifice that is held against the skin. This creates a very fine, high-pressure stream of medication that penetrates the skin, depositing medication in the tissue beneath.

Preferred by Patients

In a published study, pediatric patients indicated an overall preference for the cool.clickTM needle-free delivery system over traditional syringes (Murray, F.T., et al. Bioequivalence and Patient Satisfaction with a Growth Hormone (Saizen®) Needle-Free Device - Results of Clinical and Laboratory Studies. Today's Therapeutic Trends). 18(1):71-86, 2000). The patients also indicated that the cool.clickTM creates less discomfort than traditional syringes.

Unique Injector Design

The cool.clickTM injector is designed with durable construction for years of reliable use in home settings. Each device is thoroughly tested and rated to deliver over 3,000 injections. The cool.clickTM is ergonomically designed for right or left handed users.

Energy Source

The cool.clickTM is energized by an internal spring. Springs are an effective and economical power source for subcutaneous injections, and because they are a reusable, they do not create waste. The spring is compressed by the user by winding the device before each injection in a simple procedure described in the cool.clickTM instruction manual. The spring never comes in contact with the medication.

Easy to Use

Using the cool.clickTM to deliver injections is easy. The system requires no maintenance or re-assembly. With disposable nozzles that are replaced once a week, the offers the quality of a reusable medical product, with the convenience and safety of a sterile disposable. The exclusive, easy-to-read Crystal CheckTM disposable transparent nozzle allows you to inspect the dosage prior to injection, and visually confirm loading and full discharge of the dose after each use.

The cool.clickTM utilizes a simple-to-use "snap-on and click" design that requires no tools or assembly. The sterile nozzle and vial holder click into place in seconds, indicating to the patient that engagement is complete.

Just follow these simple steps (Do not attempt to use the cool.clickTM without reading the entire cool.clickTM Instruction Manual):

  1. Wind the device to energize the spring
  2. Draw medication into the Crystal CheckTM nozzle. Dosage settings are quick and convenient with our easy-to-read, large numbered dosage scale
  3. Using firm pressure at the injection site, hold the injector at a 90° angle
  4. Press the blue actuator button
