Description
The Tuohy Epidural Needle without Wings in 18G x 3.5" size is meticulously designed for precision and safety in epidural procedures. Featuring a modified Tuohy-point needle, it ensures enhanced tactile feel during insertion, aiding in accurate positioning. The shorter length of 3.5 inches serves to mitigate the risk of accidental dural puncture, a critical consideration in epidural anesthesia. Needle-depth markings further enhance procedural accuracy, providing visual guidance for depth control during insertion.
Crafted with a focus on patient safety and infection control, each needle is sterile and designed for single-use, adhering to stringent medical standards. This guarantees optimal performance and reduces the risk of cross-contamination between patients. The packaging is thoughtfully organized, with 50 needles in each case, divided into 5 boxes for convenient storage and accessibility.
With its combination of precision engineering, safety features, and sterile packaging, the Tuohy Epidural Needle without Wings is a reliable choice for healthcare professionals performing epidural procedures, ensuring both procedural accuracy and patient well-being.
