Carefusion 700 - 120mm Veress Needle, Disposable, Sterile for Laparoscopic Insufflation, 12/BX
The Carefusion 700 Veress Needle is a 120mm disposable, sterile surgical instrument designed to safely establish pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic procedures. With its precision-engineered spring-loaded blunt stylet and ultra-sharp beveled tip, the needle ensures controlled entry into the peritoneal cavity, reducing the risk of injury to internal organs.
Ideal for use in general and minimally invasive surgeries, the Veress needle delivers consistent performance with a simple, user-friendly design. Its 120mm length provides the reach necessary for patients with thicker abdominal walls, making it a reliable tool in both routine and complex laparoscopic cases.
