Frequently asked questions
Are these needles optimized for IOM?
Yes, the Ambu Neuroline Subdermal Needle Electrodes are specifically optimized and highly recommended for reliable Intra-Operative Monitoring (IOM) recordings.
Their design prioritizes recording integrity and safety in demanding surgical settings:
- Precision Tip: Features an ultra-sharp lancet cut tip engineered for easy, minimal trauma skin penetration.
- High-Fidelity: Optimized construction minimizes noise and impedance levels for superior signal acquisition.
- Material Specs: The needle is made from durable stainless steel (27 Gauge, 12 mm length) with balanced strength and flexibility.
- Sterility: The electrodes are EO-sterilized (Ethylene Oxide) and are certified latex-free (electrode and lead wire).
Does the electrode use a standard touch-proof safety connector?
Yes, the Ambu Neuroline Subdermal Needle Electrode is equipped with a 1.5 mm touch-proof safety connector that adheres to the DIN 42 802 standard.
This specific connector design offers crucial benefits for reliable monitoring:
- Secure Connection: Ensures a robust and reliable electrical connection to monitoring equipment.
- Industry Standard: The DIN 42 802 standard provides broad compatibility with typical clinical monitoring systems.
- Clinical Performance: Meets the necessary safety and performance requirements, especially when used for Intra-Operative Monitoring (IOM) recordings.
Are the electrodes EO-sterilized?
Yes, the Ambu Neuroline Subdermal Needle Electrodes are supplied EO-sterilized (Ethylene Oxide).
This method guarantees sterility, ensuring maximum safety for critical clinical procedures like Intra-Operative Monitoring (IOM) and eliminating the risk of cross-contamination.
Additional safety features:
- Material Safety: Both the electrode and the lead wires are confirmed to be Latex-free.
- Shelf Life: They maintain their sterility and efficacy with a generous 5-year shelf life.
Are the Neuroline electrodes latex-free?
Yes, the Ambu Neuroline Subdermal Needle Electrodes are completely latex-free, including both the electrode and the lead wire.
What lead wire lengths are available?
The Ambu Neuroline Subdermal Needle Electrodes are offered in four different lead wire lengths to suit various Intra-Operative Monitoring (IOM) setups:
- 20” (50 cm)
- 40” (100 cm)
- 60” (150 cm)
- 100” (250 cm)
How many Neuroline electrodes come in a box?
Each box contains 24 Ambu Neuroline Subdermal Needle Electrodes. These units feature color-coded lead wires (including red, blue, green, black, yellow, and white) to facilitate easy identification during complex procedures.
Do these electrodes have a long shelf life?
Yes, the Ambu Neuroline Subdermal Needle Electrodes are designed for long-term reliability and come with a generous shelf life.
- Shelf Life: 5 years
- Warranty: They are guaranteed to maintain their sterility (EO-sterilized) and performance until the date of use or the expiration date.
Does this electrode have an ultra-sharp tip?
Yes, the Ambu Neuroline Subdermal Needle Electrode features an ultra-sharp lancet cut tip designed specifically for superior and reliable electrophysiological recordings, particularly during Intra-Operative Monitoring (IOM).
Key benefits of this specialized design include:
- Easy Penetration: The ultra-sharp tip ensures secure and easy skin penetration, minimizing resistance upon insertion.
- Optimal Signal Quality: The tip geometry is optimized for maintaining consistently low electrical noise and impedance levels, which is critical for high-quality data.
- Reliable Construction: The needle is manufactured from durable stainless steel, ensuring consistent performance and strength in surgical environments.
- Safety and Hygiene: These electrodes are sterile (EO-sterilized) and are latex-free for both the electrode and the lead wire.
Is the needle made of high-quality stainless steel?
Yes, the Ambu Neuroline Subdermal Needle Electrode is constructed using high-quality stainless steel.
This material provides an optimized balance of strength and flexibility, which is crucial for achieving secure and reliable recording placement, especially during critical procedures like Intra-Operative Monitoring (IOM) and when placed directly on the scalp.
Needle Design Highlights:
- Ultra-Sharp Tip: Features an ultra-sharp lancet cut tip, engineered for easy, low-noise skin penetration.
- Performance: This design helps ensure low impedance levels necessary for accurate electrophysiological recordings.
Are the lead wires color-coded for easy use?
Yes, the Ambu Neuroline Subdermal Needle Electrodes feature color-coded lead wires to facilitate rapid identification and correct channel assignment during complex procedures like Intra-Operative Monitoring (IOM).
The set includes the following specific colors:
- Red
- Blue
- Green
- Black
- Yellow
- White
These wires are made from copper tinned wire with Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) insulation.
