FAQ:

Q1: What are the primary application scenarios for this lancet needle?

A:​ This needle is primarily used in medical scenarios requiring high-precision puncture and visualization, such as: drainage tube placement in minimally invasive surgery, biopsy puncture, cyst aspiration, and as a guide needle for sutures (e.g., in cardiovascular or plastic surgery for deep tissue suturing). Its radiopaque feature makes it particularly suitable for cardiac or complex anatomical position surgeries.

Q2: What is the function of the radiopaque band? How does it help surgeons during surgery?

A:​ The radiopaque band provides a clear visual marker under X-ray or fluoroscopy. During surgery, the surgeon can use a C-arm or ultrasound in conjunction to observe the position of the needle tip in real-time, avoiding accidental injury to blood vessels, nerves, or organs, ensuring an accurate puncture path, and thus enhancing surgical safety.

Q3: What are the practical benefits of the knurled design?

A:​ The knurled design increases the friction on the head of the needle shaft. During manual puncture or when fixing the angle of the needle, the surgeon can grip and apply force more easily, preventing the needle from slipping in the hand, thereby improving operational stability and precision.

Q4: Is this needle reusable?

A:​ We offer this lancet needle in two versions: Sterile Single-Use​ and Reusable Autoclavable. The reusable version is made with special surface treatment and materials that can withstand high-temperature, high-pressure sterilization (e.g., 134°C steam sterilization), but maintenance should follow hospital infection control protocols and product instructions.

Q5: Are there different specifications available (e.g., gauge, length, radiopaque band position)?

A:​ Yes, we offer highly customized services. You can select different needle gauges (e.g., 18G, 20G, 22G, etc.), lengths (ranging from 50mm to 300mm), as well as the position and width of the radiopaque band according to specific clinical needs, to meet the requirements of different departments and surgical types.
