Updated Infusomat(R) Space Pump, products designed to reduce bacterial contamination and pre-filled anesthesia syringes from CAPS also to be showcased
(firmenpresse) - BETHLEHEM, PA -- (Marketwired) -- 10/20/16 -- B. Braun Medical Inc., the market leader in regional anesthesia, will demonstrate the advantages of its new echogenic peripheral nerve block needle technology at this year''s American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) meeting Oct. 22-26 at the McCormick Place convention center in Chicago.
"Our new Ultra 360® needles feature an echogenic 360 degree X-pattern, when combined with a clear coating, reflect more ultrasound waves back to the probe than previous designs," said Brad Lane, Vice President, Critical Care Marketing at B. Braun. "They''re designed to provide clear visibility from all sides without compromising puncture characteristics."
The X-pattern can be seen on B. Braun''s Stimuplex® Ultra 360, Ultraplex 360® and Contiplex® Ultra 360 needles.
"It''s an advancement in regional anesthesia designed to help improve outcomes," Lane said. "Our goal is to be the first choice among anesthesiologists for delivering regional anesthesia safely and effectively."
B. Braun also will launch its neuraxial products with NRFit® connectors at ASA. These new connectors are designed to reduce the risk of cross-connection between applications and reduce medication errors and will replace Luer connectors for neuraxial administration.
