Anesthesia needle CN

contrast medium injection

The CN needle is used for peripheral nerve blocks and injection of radiocontrast medium. The Cosman CN injection needles have integrated plastic tubing and an injection port. This configuration allows the physician to visualize the spread of injected contrast without directly exposing his hands to the x-ray beam. This helps reduce the chance of an erroneous intravascular injection or epidural spread. The discrete ergonomic hub provides comfortable handling and clear fluoroscopic views. A marker on the hub indicates the orientation of the bevel opening.
