Manually controls the amount of suction applied to obtain the oocytes. ||Leak-free|| luer lock connection for ensuring the process. Needle with aspiration tube for syringe also available.

Its “Thin Wall” design offers, with the same external diameter, an increased internal diameter, allowing work with smaller needles. This reduces the possibility of bleeding and the risk of lesions in the uterine lining while minimising stress to the oocyte during aspiration. With the aim of minimising harm to the patient, Kitazato offers a full range of “Thin Wall” needles, offering gynecologists the widest range of diameters in the assisted reproduction sector, from 16G to 21G.

The Kitazato ovarian puncture needles have the following characteristics:

• Tip with echogenic marking. Guarantees high visibility for the correct approach to the follicle during the puncture.
• “Thin Wall” design. Provides a greater internal diameter. Reduces stress to the oocyte during aspiration and allows work with needles with smaller external diameter, reducing trauma to the patient.
• Triple cut blade. Ensures fast and effective puncture which minimises lesions to tissue.
• Handle with positioning marking. Provides control throughout the puncture process and helps to control the position of the needle blade.
• Silicon bung with syringe connection for cleaning the follicle or cleaning the needle.
• Different lengths available for aspiration tubes
