BD 27G Spinal Needle

• They are available in different sizes with length 90 mm and gauges from 18 G to 27 G. The key/slot arrangement of stylet and cannula hubs on the BD Quincke spinal needles facilitates proper needle bevel orientation.
• Needle Design: The BD 27G Spinal Needle features a thin, sharp, and beveled tip that facilitates smooth and precise insertion into the spinal canal. The needle is typically made of stainless steel or a similar material, ensuring strength and durability.
• Gauge: The term "G" in "27G" refers to the gauge of the needle. The gauge indicates the thickness of the needle, with a higher gauge number indicating a thinner needle. A 27G needle has a relatively small diameter, which can help minimize patient discomfort during the insertion process.
• Needle Length: The BD 27G Spinal Needle is available in different lengths to accommodate various patient populations and procedural requirements. Typical lengths range from 90mm to 120mm.
• Stylet: The spinal needle is equipped with a removable stylet or obturator that is inserted into the needle during the insertion process. The stylet provides rigidity and helps guide the needle into the desired location. Once the needle is properly positioned, the stylet is removed to allow for the collection of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or administration of medication.
• Hub: The hub of the BD 27G Spinal Needle serves as the handle or connector through which the needle is manipulated by the healthcare provider. The hub is designed to provide a secure grip and control during the insertion and removal process.
• Sterility: The BD 27G Spinal Needle is designed for single-use and is supplied sterile. It should be handled and used following aseptic techniques to minimize the risk of infection.
