Ultrasound Needle Guides

There are a variety of proven clinical benefits to clinicians utilizing needle guides for nerve blocks and other regional anesthesia procedures, including:

• Improved needle visualization (keeps the needle tip within the scan plan)
• Reduced procedure time (helps reduce time for successful needle placement)
• Increased patient safety (helps reduce the risk of inadvertent punctures to adjacent structures).
• Improved physician and staff satisfaction

Your Options:

• CIVCO’s disposable needle guides are compatible with most ultrasound systems, attaching directly to your transducer via a custom-made, reusable bracket.
• Infiniti Plus needle guidance system is an effective tool used to improve efficiency and outcomes for in-plane (IP) ultrasound-guided nerve blocks and central line placement.

The use of ultrasound needle guides in vascular access procedures has become increasingly popular, with clinicians citing several specific benefits tied directly to their inclusion. These include:

• improved needle visualization (visibility increased 54.4% with a needle guide vs. free-hand technique in the placement of a subclavian vein CVC)
• decreased access time (access time was reduced by 52.9% when cannulating the subclavian vein)
• increased success rates for first attempt insertions (successful bedside insertions increased to more than 90%, compared to 73% success rate without ultrasound guidance).

Your Options:

• CIVCO’s disposable needle guides are compatible with most ultrasound systems, attaching directly to your transducer via a custom-made, reusable bracket.
• Infiniti Plus needle guidance system is an effective tool used to improve efficiency and outcomes for in-plane (IP) ultrasound-guided nerve blocks and central line placement.
• The AccuSITE needle guidance system allows for an out-of-plane (OOP) approach, designed specifically for central line placement. The AccuSITE needle guide increases first-time success rates during catheter placement procedures.”

Needle guidance is clinically proven to lead to more confident outcomes in ultrasound-guided biopsies and endocavity procedures, while also offering clinicians several distinct procedural advantages, including:

• improved needle visualization
• reduced procedure time
• reproducible procedure techniques with better tissue yield

• CIVCO’s disposable needle guides are compatible with most ultrasound systems, attaching directly to your transducer via a custom-made, reusable bracket.
• Verza Guidance System is a next generation guidance system, providing unmatched versatility, ease-of-use and confident outcomes for diagnostic and therapeutic in-plane (IP) ultrasound-guided interventions.
• Ultra-Pro II needle guide can be utilized in a variety of interventions, including core tissue biopsies, fine needle aspirations, and ablations. Ultra-Pro II is ideally suited for clinicians seeking limited needle movement and a direct needle path to the target.
