Frequently asked questions
What lengths are available for the insulated Tuohy needle?
The Contiplex Stim Tray Kit utilizes an 18 Gauge (Ga) insulated Tuohy needle. The kit is available in two specific configurations based on the needle length, accommodating different peripheral nerve block procedures:
- 2 inches: Configuration #331755 (18 Ga x 2 in Insulated Tuohy Needle and Stimulating Catheter)
- 4 inches: Configuration #331756 (18 Ga x 4 in Insulated Tuohy Needle and Stimulating Catheter)
The stimulating catheter included in the tray is a separate 20 Ga closed-tip catheter.
What are the available needle length options?
The B. Braun Contiplex Stim Tray Kit is available in two specialized configurations, defined by the length of the included 18 Ga Insulated Tuohy Needle and the corresponding stimulating catheter:
- 2 inches (Configuration #331755)
- 4 inches (Configuration #331756)
This selection provides practitioners with necessary procedural flexibility for various peripheral nerve block applications. Both configurations utilize a fully coated stimulation needle with a Tuohy bevel and a pinpoint electrode to facilitate a pronounced motor response.
Does the stimulating catheter have enhanced safety features?
Yes, the 20 Ga stimulating catheter included in the Contiplex Stim Tray Kit is specifically engineered for improved safety and visualization during peripheral nerve block procedures.
Key advanced features include:
- Enhanced Safety: The catheter tip is fully enclosed with no exposed coil. This design significantly improves safety when advancing the catheter near the target nerve site.
- Superior Visualization: It utilizes a unique flat wire coil structure that provides improved echogenicity, ensuring clearer visualization during ultrasound-guided placement.
- Design & Handling: The catheter is 55 cm long for manageable handling within the sterile field and features a closed tip with three lateral holes.
Is this advanced kit free of natural rubber (latex)?
Yes, the components of the B. Braun Contiplex Stim Tray Kit are confirmed to not contain natural rubber (latex). This is a crucial safety feature for patients with sensitivities.
Is the Contiplex Stim Tray Kit sterile?
Yes, the B. Braun Contiplex Stim Tray Kit is provided sterile and is factory new. It is designed for maximum safety and compliance during peripheral nerve block procedures.
Does the catheter have improved echogenicity?
Yes, the stimulating catheter in the Contiplex Stim Tray Kit is designed with a unique flat wire coil specifically to improve echogenicity. This feature significantly enhances visualization and placement accuracy during ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve block procedures.
Are essential medications included in this kit?
Yes, the B. Braun Contiplex Stim Tray Kit is designed for procedural completeness and includes the pharmacological agents commonly used for peripheral nerve blocks.
The kit specifically includes:
- Lidocaine HCI
- Lidocaine HCI with Epinephrine
Does the stimulating catheter improve safety?
Yes, the Contiplex stimulating catheter is specifically designed to enhance both safety and efficiency during peripheral nerve block procedures. Key safety features include:
- Enhanced Safety Tip: The 20 Ga stimulating catheter features a closed tip with an integrated wire and no exposed coil. This design significantly improves safety during catheter advancement and placement.
- Improved Ultrasound Guidance: The catheter contains a unique flat wire coil which ensures improved echogenicity, allowing for better visualization during ultrasound-guided placement.
- Efficient Nerve Localization: The accompanying fully coated stimulation needle, which features a Tuohy bevel and a pinpoint electrode, helps facilitate a more pronounced motor response closer to the nerve, contributing to precise and streamlined procedural steps.
Is the Contiplex Stim Tray Kit latex-free?
Yes, the components of the B. Braun Contiplex Stim Tray Kit do not contain natural rubber (latex), making it suitable for patients with latex sensitivities. For complete material disclosure, please note that certain components within the kit do contain the following substances: * BPA * DEHP * PVC
Are multiple needle lengths available?
Yes, the B. Braun Contiplex Stim Tray Kit is offered in two distinct configurations, which are defined by the length of the insulated Tuohy needle and integrated catheter:
- 2-inch Length (18 Ga x 2 in, MPN: 331755)
- 4-inch Length (18 Ga x 4 in, MPN: 331756)
Both configurations utilize the same stimulating catheter, which is 55 cm in length and features a closed tip for enhanced safety and a flat wire coil designed to significantly improve echogenicity under ultrasound guidance.
