BD 405149 - Spinal Needle 22G x 7" Long-Length, Sterile, Single-Use Needle for Deep Spinal and Epidural Access, 10/BX, 5 BX/CS

TheBD 405149 Long-Length Spinal Needleis a precision-engineered22-gauge x 7-inch (178 mm)sterile, single-use needle designed for procedures requiring deeper spinal or epidural access. Manufactured byBD (Becton, Dickinson and Company), this high-quality spinal needle delivers consistent performance and depth control for healthcare professionals performingdiagnostic lumbar punctures, spinal anesthesia, or epidural injectionsin patients with increased anatomical depth.

Itsextra-long lengthandfine-gauge profileenable clinicians to safely and accurately reach the subarachnoid space or epidural area in more challenging patient anatomies, while maintaining patient comfort and procedural confidence.

Key Product Features

Product Packaging Information

Key Benefits:

• Extended 7-Inch Length: Allows deep access for spinal procedures in patients with higher BMI or atypical spinal anatomy.

• 22-Gauge Needle: Provides an ideal balance of rigidity and reduced tissue trauma.

• Sterile and Single-Use: Minimizes contamination risks, ensuring patient safety.

• Smooth Bevel Design: Enhances precision and reduces insertion resistance.

• Clear Hub Construction: Offers optimal visibility of cerebrospinal fluid return during lumbar puncture.

Compatibility and Applications:
Compatible with standardspinal introducer kits and syringes, this spinal needle is commonly used in:

• Hospitals and surgical centers

• Pain management clinics

• Neurology and anesthesiology departments

• OB/GYN and labor units for spinal/epidural blocks

Clinical applications include:

• Lumbar punctures for cerebrospinal fluid collection

• Spinal anesthesia or analgesia

• Intrathecal chemotherapy administration

• Epidural steroid or anesthetic injectionsin patients with deeper anatomical positioning

Usage Guidelines:

• Ensure the procedure is performed under sterile technique by a qualified provider.

• Insert the needle slowly and carefully along the midline, advancing to appropriate depth.

• Monitor for cerebrospinal fluid return or epidural placement confirmation.

• Upon completion, dispose of the needle immediately in a designated sharps container.

Always refer to institutional guidelines or BDs usage instructions for optimal safety and accuracy.

Certifications, Safety Standards, and Regulatory Approvals:

• FDA Approvedfor spinal procedures in the United States

• CE Markedfor European compliance

• Latex-Free and DEHP-Freematerials to support sensitive patient use

• ASTM-compliantfor spinal access devices

These certifications validate the needles safety, sterility, and performance for critical procedures in high-risk environments.

Comparison with Competitor Products:
TheBD 405149 Long-Length Spinal Needleoffers unique advantages over standard or shorter needles:

• Extended reach (7")provides access in patients where standard 3.5" or 5" needles are insufficient

• Superior bevel finish and barrel strengthreduce buckling risk and insertion discomfort

• Transparent hub with optimized fluid visibilityimproves procedural feedback

• BD reliability and quality assurancebacked by global clinical adoption

Many competitor needles do not combine extended length with BDs level of smooth insertion and visual control, which can impact procedural success in challenging cases.

Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios:
Used by:

• Anesthesiologists,neurologists, andpain specialists

• OB/GYN anesthetic teamsduring C-sections or labor analgesia

• Surgeons or radiologistsduring fluoroscopy-guided spinal injections

• Hospital staffin critical care or emergency lumbar puncture scenarios

Ideal in scenarios such as:

• Spinal procedures inobese or bariatric patients

• Recurrent epidural failuresdue to depth limitations

• Oncology patientsrequiringintrathecal drug delivery

• Research and diagnostic settingswith precise fluid collection needs

Best Practices for Use and Maintenance:

• Store in original sterile packaging until time of use

• Confirm patient positioning to optimize spinal access

• Use slow, controlled insertion to reduce risk of trauma

• Always verify needle tip placement using clinical or imaging confirmation

• Dispose in sharps container immediately post-use; never reuse

Regulatory and Safety Information:
The BD 405149 adheres to all safety regulations and guidelines for spinal and epidural access devices, including OSHA sharps protocols and CDC infection prevention standards.
