B Braun Espocan Combined Spinal Epidural Needles

• B. Braun's Espocan^® combined spinal epidural needles give the anesthesia provider the ability to perform CSE with one of the most technically advanced devices. Espocan is the combination of two unique, patented regional anesthesia needles designed to enhance your CSE technique.
• B Braun Espocan Combined Spinal Epidural Needles are medical devices used for regional anesthesia techniques that involve both spinal anesthesia and epidural anesthesia. These needles are designed to provide a single puncture site for performing both spinal and epidural procedures, allowing for seamless transition between the two techniques.
• Here are some key features and characteristics of B Braun Espocan Combined Spinal Epidural Needles:
• Dual Needle Design: The Espocan Combined Spinal Epidural Needle consists of two needles enclosed within a single unit. One needle is used for the spinal anesthesia component, while the other needle is used for the epidural anesthesia component.

• Tuohy Needle: The epidural needle component of the Espocan needle is typically a Tuohy needle. The Tuohy needle has a curved tip and is specifically designed for the safe and accurate placement of an epidural catheter.

• Pencil Point or Quincke Point Spinal Needle: The spinal needle component of the Espocan needle may come in a pencil point or Quincke point design. Both designs are commonly used for spinal anesthesia procedures and provide different benefits in terms of accuracy and CSF flow dynamics.

• Depth Markings: The Espocan needle usually has depth markings along its shaft, allowing the clinician to gauge the depth of insertion during the procedure.

• Stylet and Introducer: The needle set may include a stylet or introducer to facilitate the initial placement of the needle and help guide it accurately into the desired location.

CSE sets contain:

• Espocan Tuohy needle
• Espocan sleeved Pencan^® or Spinocan^® spinal needle
• 5 mL clear spinal syringe
