Epidural Needles & Sets

Clinical Application

Epidural needles and sets are used to establish epidural access for administration of anaesthetic and analgesic agents during surgical, obstetric, and pain management procedures.

They are used where controlled entry into the epidural space and stable catheter placement are required.

These devices support:

• Controlled identification of the epidural space
• Stable catheter placement
• Continuous or intermittent drug delivery
• Reliable connection during regional anaesthesia

Design and Performance

ALSPL epidural needles are designed to provide tactile feedback and controlled advancement through tissue layers.

Key characteristics include:

• Defined needle tip geometry suited for epidural access
• Controlled bevel configuration
• Stable hub design for precise handling
• Dimensional consistency for predictable depth control

Epidural sets are structured as integrated systems in which needle, catheter, and accessory components function together during placement.

Construction Options

Epidural platforms may include:

• Standalone epidural needles
• Complete epidural sets
• Defined gauge platforms
• Integrated catheter and fixation components
• Loss-of-resistance syringe compatibility

Configuration is selected based on procedural protocol and clinician preference.

Standard Configurations

Standard epidural platforms are available across commonly used gauge and length profiles.

Detailed dimensional specifications and configuration references are provided in the product brochure.

Customisation

Custom epidural programs may include:

• Alternative gauge and length combinations
• Modified catheter configurations
• Procedure-specific set layouts
• Custom component combinations
• OEM and private label manufacturing

Custom designs are aligned with anaesthesia workflow and institutional requirements.
