Description

Technical Specifications

  • Needle Gauge: 18G (Wide lumen to accommodate a catheter)

  • Needle Length: 50 mm (Approx. 2 inches)

  • Bevel Type: Tuohy (Curved tip to steer the catheter and prevent shearing)

  • Connector Type: NRFit™ (ISO 80369-6 compliant)

  • Guidance: Dual-mode (Echogenic and Nerve Stimulation)

  • Safety Standard: Yellow-coded hub for regional anesthesia identification


Key Features

  • ECHOBRIGHT* Technology: The needle tip features a 360° laser-etched pattern. This ensures high ultrasound visibility, which is critical when navigating the needle around delicate structures during superficial blocks like the Interscalene or Femoral nerve blocks.

  • Nerve Stimulation: The "C" in the part number indicates an integrated stimulating cable. This allows clinicians to use electrical pulses to confirm the needle’s proximity to the target nerve by eliciting a motor response, adding a second layer of verification.

  • Tuohy Tip Design: The curved bevel is designed specifically for continuous blocks. It helps "steer" the catheter into the correct plane as it exits the needle, ensuring it travels alongside the nerve rather than directly into it or through it.

  • NRFit™ Safety: The yellow-coded NRFit™ hub is physically incompatible with standard Luer-lock IV sets. This eliminates the risk of accidental cross-connection between regional anesthesia medication and intravenous lines.
