Key Features
Advanced Echogenicity: The needle shaft and tip feature a specialized texture designed to reflect ultrasound waves back to the probe. This ensures that the needle is highly visible on the monitor, even when inserted at steeper angles.
SPIROL® Catheter Technology: The 20-gauge catheter is reinforced with a stainless steel spring coil. This "kink-proof" design is essential for blocks in high-movement areas, ensuring the continuous delivery of local anesthetic is not interrupted by the patient's repositioning.
Standard Tuohy Tip: The curved tip allows the clinician to "steer" the catheter as it exits the needle, helping it lay parallel to the target nerve rather than piercing through the nerve bed.
Clean Workflow: Because there is no stimulation wire attached to the needle, the workspace is less cluttered, which is often preferred by anesthesiologists who have moved exclusively to ultrasound-guided techniques.
