A syringe-assist device including a housing portion, an actuator portion, and a syringe-supporting member. The housing portion includes body defining an axial passage. The actuator portion is connected to and is partially disposed within the axial passage of the body. The syringe-supporting member is movably-disposed within the axial passage. The syringe-supporting member fluidly separates the axial passage into a first, proximal passage portion and a second, distal passage portion. The actuator portion is movably-disposed within the second, distal passage portion of the axial passage. The syringe-supporting member defines a fluid-flow passage that fluidly-connects the first, proximal passage portion of the axial passage to the second, distal passage portion of the axial passage. A method is also disclosed.
