R.K.™ Epidural Needles
Developed by Epimed, the R.K.™ epidural needle is a modified Tuohy
epidural needle with an opened and dulled bevel to allow safer catheter
passage. A large triangle is printed on the hub in the direction of the
bevel to assist in correct placement.
RX™ Epidural Needle
The patented RX™ epidural needle ensures more precise needle tip
placement and positioning of epidural catheters. The bevel opening at
distal tip is shorter than a standard Touhy Needle. As with the Epimed
R.K.™ epidural needle, the RX™ rear heel is rounded to resist catheter
shearing during placement.
RX Coudé® Needle
The patented RX Coudé® epidural needle ensures more precise needle
tip placement and positioning of epidural catheters. The RX Coudé® can
be positioned so that the front bevel forms a flat surface parallel to the
ligamentum flavum and the dura, limiting the chance of dural puncture.
Once epidural placement is confirmed, the needle can be rotated
towards your target site. The RX rear heel is rounded to resist catheter
shearing during placement.
R.E.C.
This is the original spring catheter that started it all. It possesses the
same basic features of the Epimed spring guide epidural catheter product
line but with the least stiff catheter body. This catheter has a basic
fluoropolymer coating.
Brevi-Kath
Heavy duty catheter body and soft tip in convenient lengths.
Tun-L-Kath
Firm, directable catheter body. Round, deflective atraumatic tip design
(stylette does not extend to the distal tip). Both systems have annealed
fluoropolymer coatings for greater durability and ease in placement.
Precise directional control.
Brevi-XL
Similar to the Brevi-Kath with the added versatility of selective distal end
stiffness (i.e. firm or soft) by adjusting the stylette. Even with the stiffer
distal end, the catheter maintains a round, deflective, atraumatic tip. The
stylette runs the entire length of the catheter to the distal end.
The XL-2 model is supplied with a spare stylette.
Versa-Kath®
21g catheter for cervical applications. Reduced size, same 1:1 torque
and directability. Due to its slim design, the Versa-Kath® is the only
spring guide epidural catheter that can be introduced through an 18g
needle. Packaged with a stylette.
The blunt tip of the Epimed needle enhances tactile feedback as the needle tip passes through various
tissue planes. The blunt tip is designed to deflect rather than transfix neural structures and blood
vessels. The curved cannula aids in guiding the needle tip to enable site specific injections. The side
port allows drugs to be distributed laterally around the needle tip and directly target the nerve.
Blunt Nerve Block Needles - Straight
Designed for atraumatic access for nerve blocks: sleeve blocks, deep
muscle blocks, hypogastric blocks, paravertebral blocks, joint blocks,
facets, selective nerve root, lumbar sympathetic, celiac plexus.
Blunt Nerve Block Needles - Coudé®
A Coudé (curved) version of the blunt nerve block needle that has a
15° bend in the cannula approximately one centimetre from the distal
end allowing for precise tip placement even with difficult to reach
target areas.
14g RX Coudé® Needle
The patented RX Coudé® Needle is the perfect introducer needle for
stimulator lead placement. This needle is dimensionally compatible
with trial or implantable electrodes placed through a 14g introducer
currently available from various manufacturers. It is ideal for Retrograde
Stimulator placement. The RX™ rear heel is rounded to resist
lead shearing during placement..
Stingray™ Connector
The Stingray™ connector is a new, prize winning, catheter connection
device available from Epimed International. Designed to work with 19g
(Blue) and 21g(Green) catheters they provide a simple and secure
connector system. The flatter, low profile configuration provides for
better patient comfort than standard products in this area.
Providing the ideal combination of radiation reduction, dexterity, comfort and sensitivity. With a material thickness of only 0.18mm these gloves allow the greatest possible flexibility, dexterity and sensitivity of touch.
These products are lead, latex and powder free for reduced risk of allergic reactions. Available in half sizes from 6½ to 9.
