Description

The Tuohy Epidural Needle, 22G x 3.5", is a precision-engineered medical tool designed for administering epidural anesthesia. Its carefully crafted design ensures optimal control and accuracy during single-shot or continuous epidural procedures. The needle’s curved tip facilitates precise placement, reducing the risk of puncturing the dura mater and improving patient safety. This makes it a reliable choice for anesthesiologists in various clinical applications.

The needle features a durable metal stylet that maintains the integrity of the lumen, ensuring smooth insertion and preventing tissue coring. The removable wings are designed to enhance maneuverability and comfort for the practitioner during placement. Once positioned, the wings can be detached to reduce bulk and allow unobstructed access during the procedure.

A plastic hub at the base of the needle provides a secure grip, ensuring stability and ease of handling. The translucent hub allows for clear visualization of fluids, which aids in confirming accurate placement within the epidural space. This design feature is essential for achieving effective delivery of anesthesia.
