Frequently asked questions
What needle gauges are available?
The ConMed WANG Cytology Needle is offered in three precise gauge options, ensuring clinicians can select the optimal size for reliable aspirate collection across various lung segments:
- 20 Gauge (20G)
- 21 Gauge (21G)
- 22 Gauge (22G)
These gauge options are paired with specific lengths (13 mm or 15 mm) and targeted configurations (Central, Peripheral, or Combined focus) to maximize sampling stability and overall aspirate yield during transbronchial procedures.
What is the working length for this cytology needle?
The working length for the ConMed WANG Cytology Needle is specified as 15.7 inches (140 cm). This working length ensures optimal reach and versatile application for specimen collection in virtually every segment of the lung during pulmonary procedures.
How many cytology needles are included per box?
Each box of the ConMed WANG Cytology Needle contains 4 disposable needles.
Does the ConMed WANG Cytology Needle have a locking mechanism?
Yes, the ConMed WANG Cytology Needle includes locking mechanisms to ensure needle stability during sampling.
Is the ConMed Cytology Needle disposable?
Yes, the ConMed WANG Cytology Needle is a disposable, single-use medical device. This is crucial for maintaining a sterile environment and ensuring maximum patient safety during transbronchial aspiration procedures.
What is the needle's working diameter?
The ConMed WANG Cytology Needle has a precise working diameter of 1.9 mm.
This specific dimension is standardized to ensure optimal compatibility and safe passage through bronchoscopes, facilitating efficient specimen collection across virtually every segment of the lung.
Are the needles retractable for safe passage?
Yes, the ConMed WANG Cytology Needle is designed with several key safety features to optimize procedures:
- Retractability: The instrument features retractable needles and smooth hubs to ensure safe, damage-free passage through the bronchoscope’s working channel.
- Sampling Stability: Integrated locking mechanisms are incorporated to maintain secure needle stability during the aspiration process.
- Visualization: The clear Teflon catheter allows clinicians to directly visualize the collected aspirate, which helps confirm sample quality and adequacy.
Does the clear catheter allow visualization?
Yes, the ConMed WANG Cytology Needle is designed with a clear Teflon catheter. This material is a key feature as it allows medical professionals to achieve direct visualization of the aspirate during transbronchial aspiration, which aids procedural confidence and ensures optimal specimen collection.
What areas of the lung can this needle sample?
The ConMed WANG Cytology Needle is highly versatile and can be configured to sample various lung segments. It is suitable for collecting specimens from:
- Central lesions
- Carinal regions
- Mediastinal regions
- Hilar regions
- Peripheral regions
Different models offer specific configurations to best accommodate sampling needs across virtually every segment of the lung.
Does the needle ensure optimal specimen collection?
Yes, the ConMed WANG Cytology Needle is specifically designed for optimal specimen collection, ensuring a high-quality yield during procedures. Its design aims to facilitate efficient and effective aspiration for diagnostic purposes.
