Compatibility and Applications

The BD 408295 needle is compatible with standard guide wires, introducer sheaths, and vascular access systems. It is designed for use in:

• Central venous and arterial catheterization procedures.
• Angiographic and interventional radiology procedures.
• Percutaneous access for cardiovascular, renal, and imaging applications.
• Catheter insertion requiring guide wire introduction for precise placement.

Its precise engineering and secure winged hub make it ideal for clinicians performing image-guided or manual puncture techniques where controlled access and safety are paramount.

Usage Guidelines

Use aseptic technique throughout the procedure. Attach the BD Single Wall Puncture Needle securely to a syringe if aspiration is required to confirm vessel entry. Insert the needle at the appropriate angle until blood flashback is observed, confirming vessel access. Remove the syringe (if attached) and insert the compatible 0.032"0.038" guide wire through the needle lumen. Once the wire is positioned, withdraw the needle carefully while maintaining wire stability. Dispose of used needles immediately in approved sharps containers according to institutional biohazard policies.

The BD 408295 Procedure Needle is manufactured under ISO 13485:2016 and ISO 9001:2015-certified quality management systems. It complies with FDA and CE regulatory standards for Class II medical devices. Each needle undergoes rigorous inspection for sharpness, lumen integrity, and sterility assurance (SAL 10?6). The product is DEHP-free, latex-free, and non-pyrogenic, ensuring compatibility with patient safety requirements in clinical and surgical environments.

Comparison with Competitor Products

Compared to conventional introducer needles, the BD Single Wall Puncture Needle offers enhanced control, superior tip geometry, and reduced tissue resistance. While some competitor models employ double-wall puncture designs that increase the risk of posterior vessel injury, BDs single-wall configuration provides a more controlled entry with improved feedback and fewer complications. Additionally, the BD needles uniform internal diameter ensures smooth guide wire passage and consistent procedural outcomes.

Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios

This product is designed for use by healthcare professionals specializing in vascular access, interventional radiology, and cardiology, including:

• Interventional radiologists and cardiologists performing percutaneous procedures.
• Vascular surgeons and anesthesiologists conducting central line placements.
• Critical care and emergency physicians requiring reliable venous or arterial access.
• Nurses and technicians trained in image-guided vascular procedures.

The BD 408295 needle is ideal for clinical environments requiring precision, sterility, and reliability in every puncture.

Best Practices for Use and Maintenance

Store the BD Single Wall Puncture Needle in its original sterile packaging at room temperature (1530C) and away from direct sunlight. Do not use if the packaging is damaged or the sterility indicator is compromised. Always verify guide wire compatibility before use. Do not reuse, re-sterilize, or attempt to sharpen the needle. Follow institutional protocols for sharps safety and disposal after single use.
