Spinal needles are used for spinal anesthesia or diagnostic puncture of the spinal canal. They are made of high-quality steel and have a Quincke tip with double bevel, which enables atraumatic puncture of the dura and minimizes the risk of post-spinal headache. The pencil point design of the needle provides precise navigation, making it a reliable and safe choice for accurate administration of spinal anesthesia.
