Description
The DISP ENDO STERILE NEEDLE GUIDE is an essential tool for clinicians performing ultrasound-guided endocavity procedures. This single-use, disposable guide is meticulously designed to enhance precision in needle placement, making it invaluable for procedures such as tissue biopsy, fluid aspiration, and targeted therapy injections.
Key Features
-
Sterility and Hygiene
Each guide is supplied sterile and individually wrapped, eliminating the need for cleaning or sterilization between uses. This design significantly reduces the risk of cross-contamination and infection, aligning with stringent infection control protocols. -
Design and Comfort
The guide features a contoured, low-profile construction that ensures patient comfort and minimizes trauma. Its secure attachment to ultrasound transducers provides stability, while the smooth transition from the funnel insertion point to the exit allows for seamless needle navigation.
Compatibility
The guide is compatible with a wide array of ultrasound transducer models from leading manufacturers such as GE, Siemens, Philips, and others. This broad compatibility ensures that each guide can be tailored to specific transducer models, accommodating various needle gauges and lengths typically ranging from 16-18GA.
Additional Features
Some models of the guide offer:
- Multiple insertion points with varying needle angles.
- Accessories such as latex covers, o-rings, gel, and bands.
These features provide versatility and adaptability to meet the specific needs of different medical procedures.
Packaging
Typically, the guides are packaged in boxes containing 20 or 24 units, making them convenient for clinical settings with varying procedure volumes.
Intended Use
This needle guide is particularly beneficial in medical fields such as urology, gastroenterology, gynecology, and radiology. It supports procedures including prostate and ovarian biopsies, IVF-related interventions, and other gynecological applications.
Benefits
-
Consistent Performance
Each new guide ensures consistent performance, enhancing the accuracy and reliability of needle placement. -
Patient Comfort
Compared to reusable metal guides, this disposable option improves patient comfort and reduces procedural trauma.
Environmental Considerations
While the single-use nature of the guide contributes to medical waste, proper disposal as infectious waste is necessary to mitigate environmental impact. Clinicians should be aware of standard procedural risks, including infection and tissue injury, and manage them accordingly.
The DISP ENDO STERILE NEEDLE GUIDE offers a practical, reliable solution for enhancing procedural outcomes in ultrasound-guided interventions, embodying a commitment to patient safety and clinical excellence.
