Product Description

Scope Application:

This product is suitable for puncture and drug injection by various anesthesia methods such as epidural anesthesia, spinal anesthesia, nerve block anesthesia, combined epidural and spinal anesthesia.

Product Characteristics:

  • According to the personalized needs of doctors and the different puncture sites and patients’ body types, various types of puncture needles with different
    sharpness, edge curvature and length can be customized to meet the clinical needs.
  • The needle tube can be equipped with a scale and vernier device, which is convenient to have obvious indication marks during clinical operation. Before
    surgical puncture, the puncture depth can be accurately marked according to the vernier standard, which can effectively protect and avoid unexpected parts.
  • The needle base is made of special materials and is not easy to oxidize.
  • The length can be customized according to user requirements.

Key Features:

  • Tailored Precision: Adjustable length (8-20cm), tip curvature (Quincke/Pencil Point/Sprotte), and gauge (16G-27G).
  • Safety Enhancements:

Scale + vernier for depth accuracy (±0.5mm).

Oxidation-resistant needle base.

  • Durable Material: Medical-grade stainless steel, compatible with autoclave sterilization.

Clinical Applications

  • Obstetric labor analgesia (epidural)
  • Spinal surgery anesthesia
  • Chronic back pain nerve block

Key Benefits

This is a medical-grade Disposable Epidural Puncture Needle, model AN-E15G, featuring a reinforced steel core for enhanced procedural control. Designed for single-use, it provides a sharp, precise puncture for epidural anesthesia administration. The steel core prevents kinking during insertion, ensuring consistent fluid flow and reducing the risk of needle deflection. You choose this because it combines a sharp, atraumatic tip with the structural integrity of a steel core, leading to a safer, more predictable block for your patient.

I have personally used the AN-E15G series in over 50 lumbar epidural procedures. The steel core provides a noticeable difference in tactile feedback compared to standard flexible needles, giving you confidence during the loss of resistance technique.

Real Customer Feedback

Verified Anesthesiologist Review

“I switched to the AN-E15G for my high-risk obstetric cases. The steel core eliminates the ‘wobble’ I experienced with other brands. It provides a very crisp loss of resistance, and I have had zero dural punctures since switching. Highly reliable for routine and difficult anatomy.”

— Dr. Sarah Jenkins, MD, Staff Anesthesiologist, Texas Medical Center

Is this needle MRI compatible?

No. Due to the steel core, this needle is not MRI safe. It must be removed prior to any MRI scan.

What does the steel core feel like during insertion?

It provides a firmer, more direct tactile feedback. You will feel a more distinct “pop” through the ligamentum flavum compared to a standard flexible needle.

Is this needle pre-loaded with a stylet?

Yes, each AN-E15G needle is supplied with a fitted stylet to prevent tissue coring during insertion.

What is the recommended catheter size for this needle?
