ProBloc Single Injection Regional Block Needles

Peripheral Nerve Block Needles
Life-Tech's insulated nerve block needles are available in three styles and three tip designs. Each style and tip design is available in several gauges and lengths to meet the requirements of a wide variety of nerve block procedures. Medical grade insulation on all needles localizes the stimulating current to the needle tip.

Laser-Stripping Technology

• Provides clean insulation removal with sharp, defect-free boundary.
• Creates limited conductive area on lumen side of needle tip to localize stimulation to the anesthetic's exit point.
• Produces consistent conductive areas in different size needles insuring repeatable stimulation characteristics from procedure to procedure.

Needle Tip Designs (as shown in the selection chart below)
Block Bevel with Sleeve Insulation

• Provides maximum uninsulated tip exposure.
  

Block Bevel Laser-Stripped Tip

• Meets requirements of anesthesiologists who prefer a blunter needle tip to minimize nerve trauma.
• Provides precise stimulation pattern for tip placement.
  

Chiba Tip with Ground Conductive Area

• Meets requirements of anesthesiologists who prefer a sharper needle to minimize tissue trauma and maximize needle control.
  

Transparent, Ergonomically Designed Hub

• Molded arrow provides both visual and tactile indication of bevel orientation.
• Easy to hold and manipulate.
• Enables easy observation of aspirated blood without contaminating the injection tubing set.
