The Polymed Spinal Needle is a medical instrument specifically designed for administering spinal anesthesia. It features a Quincke point with a conical tip, engineered for precision during lumbar puncture procedures. The design aims to facilitate the injection of anesthetics into the subarachnoid space while providing tactile feedback to the clinician. Its construction from high-quality stainless steel ensures durability. The transparent hub allows for clear visualization of Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) flashback, confirming correct needle placement.
Quincke Point Design: Features a sharp, beveled Quincke tip for smoother entry, which may help minimize tissue trauma.
Conical Tip: The needle's conical tip is designed to provide superior tactile feedback to the clinician during insertion for procedural control.
High Flow Rate: Engineered to allow for a high flow rate, which enables faster flashback of Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) to confirm proper needle placement.
Transparent Hub: Equipped with a large, clear hub that aids in the visualization of CSF, confirming the needle has reached the correct space.
Siliconized Needle: The stainless steel needle is coated with a thin layer of silicone for smooth insertion and withdrawal, reducing friction.
Q: What is this spinal needle used for?
A: This spinal needle is designed for administration of spinal anaesthesia. It can also be used for diagnostic lumbar punctures.
Q: What do the measurements '26 G' and '3.5 inch' mean?
A: The term '26 G' refers to the gauge or thickness of the needle, while '3.5 inch' (approximately 90 mm) indicates the needle's length.
Q: What is a Quincke point on a spinal needle?
A: A Quincke point refers to a sharp, cutting bevel tip on the needle. This design is intended to provide tactile feedback to the clinician during insertion.
Q: How does the design aid in procedures?
A: The needle is engineered for a high flow rate, which allows for a more rapid appearance of Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF), helping to confirm correct placement.
Q: Who should use this medical device?
A: This is a medical instrument intended for use only by qualified and trained healthcare professionals in a hospital or clinical setting.
