Clinical Application
This curved lancet-tip guide needle is intended to establish percutaneous access and to facilitate the controlled introduction of guidewires and catheters. The combination of a lancet cutting tip and a curved shaft supports directional control during puncture and wire placement, making it useful in procedures that require precise trajectory or access across curved anatomy.
Design & Configuration
The curved shaft geometry provides improved steering and alignment when approaching off-angle or tortuous targets, reducing the need for repeated passes. The lancet tip offers a sharp, wedge-style cutting profile that penetrates tissue cleanly to enable predictable entry and a stable initial tract for subsequent wire or catheter passage. The 21 cm length supplies extended reach for deeper percutaneous approaches or when additional working length is required.
