Ogawa's Hypospray

Nurse Ogawa grips this sleek handheld injector and presses it against Worf's neck to deliver 20 cc's of inoprovaline, countering his isocortex fluctuations during the genetronic procedure. Beverly Crusher later seizes it for doses of chlormydride and cordrazine amid crashing vitals and flatlining monitors. The device hisses with each injection, its ergonomic casing steady in tense hands as the team races Worf's 27-minute life-support clock.
