Description

The TEMNO EVOLUTION BIOPSY NEEDLES are expertly crafted for healthcare professionals seeking precision and flexibility in soft tissue biopsy procedures. Designed by Temno, also associated with CAREFUSION and Merit Medical Systems, these single-use devices are not intended for bone biopsies, ensuring specialized application in clinical settings.

Key Features

• Four-Bevel, Super-Sharp Tip: This innovative design allows for easy penetration with minimal tissue shear, providing a straighter track and reducing trauma to surrounding tissues.
• Variable Notch Sizes: Available in 10 mm and 20 mm, these notches offer controlled sampling, enhancing clinical flexibility.
• Throw Length Options: Depending on the model, throw lengths are available at 12 mm or 21/22 mm, allowing for precise operation.

Ergonomic Design

The needle's compact, ergonomically contoured body is lightweight, enabling comfortable one-handed operation. Soft, pliable finger grips and a tactile-enhanced plunger increase control and comfort, while the short needle tip design minimizes the risk of perforating nearby organs and vessels.

Enhanced Visibility and Compatibility

• Echogenic Markings: These markings on the stylet and cannula improve ultrasound visibility for accurate needle placement.
• Coaxial Introducer Compatibility: Offered with or without a coaxial introducer needle, the system includes features like centimeter markings, a positive-locking skin stop, and a clear luer lock hub for enhanced precision.

Sampling Efficiency

The coaxial introducer allows for multiple samples from a single puncture, reducing tissue damage. A coaxial spacer is included for precise placement with the 10 mm notch option, and centimeter depth marks ensure accurate depth control during procedures.

Available Sizes

The needles come in various gauges (14 G, 16 G, 18 G, 19 G, 20 G) and lengths (6 cm, 11 cm, 15 cm, 20 cm), with availability varying by gauge. Typically, they are packaged in cases of 5 or 10 devices, depending on configuration.

Intended Use and Disposal

Designed for use in radiology, oncology, and pathology settings, these needles provide precise tissue sampling for healthcare professionals. As a single-use device, each needle must be disposed of after one procedure following medical waste protocols, ensuring safety and hygiene.

The TEMNO EVOLUTION BIOPSY NEEDLES stand out as a reliable tool for clinicians, offering advanced features that support accurate and efficient biopsy procedures.
