WHAT MAKES THE GERTIE MARX® NEEDLE DIFFERENT FROM OTHERS:
"e;DISTINCTIVE POP"e; – when dura is punctured based on the tip design.
SIDE PORT INDICATORS ON THE NEEDLE HUB – give visual and sensory indication of the position of the side port, eliminating alignment of the stylet cap with the hub when the stylet is withdrawn and reinserted.
360 DEGREE STYLET CAP – emphasizes the redundancy of aligning the stylet cap with the hub and raised lines offer a secure grip.
MAGNIFYING HUB – to increase the visibility of CSF flow by 2.5 times.
NEEDLES IN 25G SIZES AND LONGER NEEDLES (5"e;, 6"e;, 6.5"e;) – for the "e;combined Spinal Epidural Technique"e; with 3.5"e;, 4.5"e; and 5"e; epidural needles and singleshot use on obese patients.
CSE-SET FOR THE OBESE PATIENT – the only CSE-set with a 25G x 160mm/6.5"e; spinal needle and a 17G x 5"e; epidural needle in the U.S.
