BD Spinal Needle 22G x 90mm Quinke Point – 1 Unit

The BD Spinal Needle 22G x 90mm with a Quinke point is a sterile, single‑use spinal needle designed for accurate cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) access and spinal anesthesia. Ideal for lumbar puncture procedures and diagnostic CSF collection, this BD spinal needle combines a precision stainless‑steel shaft and smooth stylet to facilitate controlled insertion and reduce tissue coring.

Key Benefits

• Precision access for lumbar puncture and spinal anesthesia — optimized 22G x 90mm length for adult patients.
• Quinke cutting point for predictable penetration and tactile feedback during dura puncture.
• Sterile, single‑use design reduces cross‑contamination risk; packaged for clinical convenience (1 unit).
• High‑quality stainless‑steel construction with a secure hub for reliable handling and sample collection.
• Compatible with standard spinal procedure workflows in anesthesia, neurology and emergency care.

Ingredients and Materials

Needle shaft: medical‑grade stainless steel (22 gauge, 90 mm). Hub: medical‑grade polymer (polypropylene). Stylet: matching stainless steel stylet to prevent tissue coring. Sterilization: ethylene oxide (EO) sterilized. Packaging: sterile single‑unit blister/foil pack. Latex‑free components where specified by manufacturer.

How to Use

For use by trained healthcare professionals only. Follow institutional protocols and aseptic technique.

1. Verify patient identity and indication for lumbar puncture or spinal anesthesia.
2. Position patient (lateral decubitus or sitting) and identify intervertebral space (commonly L3‑L4 or L4‑L5).
3. Prepare and drape site using sterile technique; administer local anesthetic as needed.
4. Advance needle with stylet in place at the appropriate midline/paramedian angle; remove stylet upon dural puncture to confirm CSF flow or administer anesthetic per protocol.
5. Withdraw needle and apply pressure; dispose of needle in an approved sharps container.

Always adhere to local clinical guidelines and manufacturer instructions for use.

Who It’s For

Designed for anesthesiologists, neurologists, emergency physicians, nurse anesthetists and other trained clinicians performing lumbar puncture, spinal anesthesia, or diagnostic CSF collection in hospital or clinic settings.

Caution & Storage

Caution: Single‑use sterile device. Do not reuse or resterilize. Use only by trained healthcare professionals. Potential procedure risks include headache (post‑dural puncture headache), bleeding, infection, nerve injury and local tissue trauma. Evaluate patient coagulation status and contraindications prior to procedure.

Storage: Store in original packaging at controlled room temperature, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Inspect packaging prior to use; do not use if package is damaged or seal is broken. Dispose of used needles in an approved sharps container in accordance with local regulations.
