BD 405170 - BD Spinal Needle Sterile 25G x 3", Atraumatic Needle for Spinal Access, 25/BX

The BD 405170 Spinal Needle Sterile 25G x 3" is a precision-engineered, sterile spinal needle designed for safe and efficient lumbar punctures and spinal anesthesia procedures. Featuring a 25-gauge needle with a 3-inch length, this needle provides controlled access to the subarachnoid space while minimizing patient discomfort. The atraumatic pencil-point tip reduces tissue trauma and the risk of post-dural puncture headache (PDPH), making it ideal for both diagnostic and therapeutic spinal procedures.

Key Benefits

• 25G x 3" size provides optimal balance between precision and comfort, suitable for a wide range of adult spinal access procedures

• Atraumatic pencil-point tip minimizes tissue disruption, reducing the incidence of PDPH

• Sterile, single-use design to eliminate cross-contamination and ensure the highest level of infection control

• Clear hub with depth markings enables precise insertion and accurate placement in the subarachnoid space

• Smooth, controlled insertion with minimal resistance, improving overall patient experience

• High tensile strength ensures durability during insertion and prevents needle breakage

Comparison with Competitor Products
Compared to traditional spinal needles, the BD 405170 provides a higher degree of precision and comfort. The atraumatic pencil-point tip reduces the risk of complications, while the sterile, single-use design ensures infection control and operational safety. The 3-inch length is ideal for accessing deeper spinal spaces in adult patients, offering a more versatile solution than shorter needles.

Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios
Used by anesthesiologists, neurologists, radiologists, and pain management specialists. Common in:

• Operating rooms for spinal anesthesia and epidural procedures

• Diagnostic radiology departments for myelography and lumbar punctures

• Labor and delivery units for labor pain management

• Pain management clinics for intrathecal drug delivery

Best Practices for Use and Maintenance

• Inspect the packaging and check the expiration date before use to ensure sterility

• Use aseptic techniques during insertion to minimize infection risks

• Dispose of the needle immediately after use in an appropriate sharps container

• Monitor the insertion site for signs of complications such as infection, bleeding, or injury
