제품 설명
Confidence¿ Introducer Needle Side Hole 13G x 4-Inch || Product Code: 2839-04-413 || The Confidence Needles are supplied sterile. They are used to place bone cement percutaneously at a desired location. They come in a variety of sizes (length and diameter) and configurations (Bevel tip, Diamond tip). The cement extrudes from the end of the cannulated needle with the exception of the side hole needle which extrudes cement from a portal on the side of the tube near the distal end. The needle is placed under fluoroscopy prior to cement delivery. The needle is also sometimes used in MIS cases to place the guide wire that is used to assist in the placement of the pedicle screw.
