What is Buzzy^®?

Buzzy^® is simply a small vibrating bee with a unique ice pack.  Put it near any sharp pain, and presto!  Using natural pain relief, Buzzy confuses your body's own nerves and distracts attention away, thereby dulling or eliminating sharp injection pain. In the same way that rubbing a bumped elbow helps, or cool running water soothes a burn, Buzzy^® crowds out pain by sending stronger motions sensations down the nerves instead . Cool! Research shows it really works.In an emergency department, nurses and doctors can get too busy to wait for numbing creams for needle procedures. For newly diagnosed diabetic children, the medical community has a history of expecting kids to just get used to needle pain. For shots, for bee stings, for boo-boos, for injected medicines,… for all acute pain management, we developed Buzzy^® to put instant pain management in YOUR hands.

A pilot trial in adults for IV starts (Clinical Journal of Pain, October 2009) found that Buzzy^® significantly decreased needle pain. A randomized study in children needing IV starts in the emergency department also showed significantly decreased pain by child and parent report, with INCREASED success on the first try. Buzzy^® has been used for dentistry, travel immunizations, fertility shots, and finger pricks, splinter removal, flu injections and more!
