Faqs

What is a spinal needle used for?

A spinal needle is a specialized medical needle designed for specific procedures involving the spinal cord and surrounding structures. It's commonly used in spinal anesthesia, spinal taps (lumbar punctures), and certain diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.

Patients may feel slight pressure or the discomfort, but anesthesia usually minimizes pain.

1. Quincke (cutting tip) 2. Whitacre/Sprotte (non-cutting tip).

The price of 26G spinal needle depends on the brand and supplier, generally available at low to moderate cost.

The most painful spinal needle size is usually the larger ones like 18G, because they are thicker and can cause more pain.

There are six types of spinal needle are Quincke (or Cutting) Tip, Pencil Point Tip (Whitacre), Acutip Tip, Gertie Marx Tip, Atraumatic or Non-Cutting Tips, Sprotte Tip

Types of Spinal Needles Available

Quincke Tip (Cutting) — Model 14-200 – The Quincke is the most commonly used design of spinal needle. Its sharp beveled tip allows smooth penetration of the dura mater. It is the preferred choice for spinal anesthesia and lumbar puncture. Available in 18G to 27G.

Whitacre Pencil Point (Atraumatic) — Model 14-210 – The Whitacre’s rounded, pencil-like tip separates rather than cuts dura mater fibers, with a significant reduction in the risk of post-dural puncture headache (PDPH). The first is preferred for procedures such as epidural analgesia, obstetric anesthesia, and lumbar puncture where the risk of headache must be minimized. Available in 22G-27G.
