Description
The 183A024 is the product code for the Avanos Quincke Point Spinal Needle in its longest standard configuration: 25 Gauge and 6.0 inches (152 mm) long.
This specialized "extra-long" needle is designed for anesthesia and diagnostic procedures in cases where standard needle lengths (3.5" or 5") cannot reach the subarachnoid space due to patient anatomy or a high Body Mass Index (BMI).

Key Design Features
Maximum Reach: At 6 inches, this is the largest needle in the Quincke series, specifically intended for extreme bariatric access or deep diagnostic lumbar punctures.
Tactile Precision: Despite the extreme length, the Quincke bevel is engineered to transmit tactile feedback back to the clinician's hand, allowing them to feel the distinct change in resistance when the needle penetrates the dura mater.
Stylet Integrity: The metal stylet is precision-ground to fit the needle perfectly. This is critical for 6-inch needles to provide enough rigidity to prevent the needle from "bowing" or veering off-course during insertion.
Clear Flashback Visualization: The transparent hub allows the clinician to see Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) as soon as it enters the needle, which is vital for confirming correct placement at such significant depths.
