Product Details
18G-27G Medical spinal anesthesia needle Pencil and Quincke type
with and without introducer needle
Product description
The spinal needle is a specialized medical instrument designed for
accessing the spinal canal and delivering medications, anesthesia,
or withdrawing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) during various procedures.
Below is a detailed description of this essential medical device:
Purpose and Function:
A spinal needle is used primarily in spinal anesthesia, lumbar
punctures (spinal taps), and spinal injections to access the
subarachnoid space within the spinal canal.
It facilitates the precise delivery of medications, local
anesthetics, or the withdrawal of cerebrospinal fluid for
diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
Design and Components:
- Typically made of stainless steel or high-quality medical-grade
materials, the spinal needle is a long, thin, and hollow needle
with a sharp beveled tip.
- It features a hub at one end for attachment to syringes or other
devices and markings along the shaft to indicate depth during
insertion.
- Available in various lengths, gauges, and designs to suit different
procedures and patient populations.
Key Features:
- Beveled Tip: The sharp, beveled tip ensures smooth penetration
through tissues and reduces trauma during insertion.
- Stylet: Some spinal needles come with a removable stylet that
provides additional stiffness during insertion and can be withdrawn
once the needle is in place.
- Depth Markings: Graduated markings along the shaft help healthcare
providers gauge the depth of needle insertion into the spinal
canal.
- Echogenic Markers: Some advanced needles feature echogenic markers
for enhanced visibility under ultrasound guidance.
- Applications:
- Spinal Anesthesia: Used to deliver local anesthetics into the
subarachnoid space for surgical procedures or pain management.
- Lumbar Puncture: Essential for obtaining cerebrospinal fluid
samples for diagnostic purposes or administering medications
directly into the spinal canal.
Usage Guidelines:
- Inserted by trained healthcare professionals using aseptic
techniques to minimize the risk of infection.
- Proper positioning and orientation are crucial to avoid spinal cord
injury or nerve damage.
- Careful aspiration to confirm correct needle placement in the
subarachnoid space before medication administration.
Benefits:
- Facilitates precise and controlled access to the spinal canal for
diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
- Minimizes patient discomfort and complications during spinal
interventions.
- Customizable options ensure compatibility with various procedures
and patient needs.
- Essential tool in anesthesia, neurology, and pain management
specialties.
- The spinal needle is a critical tool in spinal interventions,
providing healthcare professionals with a safe and effective means
of accessing the spinal canal for a range of diagnostic and
therapeutic procedures.
FAQ
1.What is a spinal needle used for?
Spinal needles are used to inject analgesia and/or anaesthetic
directly into the CSF usually at a point below the second lumbar
vertebra. Spinal needles enter the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF)
through the membranes surrounding the spinal cord.
2.What is the difference between a spinal needle and an epidural?
The spinal cord and the nerves are contained in a sac of
cerebrospinal fluid. The space around this sac is the epidural
space. Spinal anesthesia involves the injection of numbing medicine
directly into the fluid sac. Epidurals involve the injection into
the space outside the sac (epidural space).
3.What is a 25G spinal needle used for?
Medrop Spinal needle 25G Pack of 10 Medical Needle
lumbar puncture procedures
A 25G spinal needle is considered relatively small and is often
used for procedures in infants, children, and adults who have small
body frames or who are more sensitive to pain. A spinal needle 25G
is a medical device used for lumbar puncture procedures.
4.Why do people need spinal injections?
Spinal Injections - OrthoInfo - AAOS
These types of injections are placed into and around the facet
joints, which are the small joints located between each vertebra on
the back of the spine. Facet joint injections are often used when
pain is caused by degenerative/arthritic conditions or injury. They
are used to treat neck, middle back, or low back pain.
5.Does spinal needle hurt?
Will I feel anything during the Spinal? Spinal anaesthetic is no
more painful than having a blood test, especially with a local
anaesthetic injection at the skin. Most patients do not feel
anything other than a warm sensation in their legs or buttocks as
the spinal anaesthetic takes effect.
