CIVCO Expands Esaote Offering with New Infiniti™ and Ultra-Pro II™ Starter Kits
KALONA, IA, USA – CIVCO Medical Solutions has introduced the Infiniti needle guidance system for use with Esaote’s LA533 transducer. Esaote’s transducers, coupled with the Infiniti needle guidance system, are used in imaging applications to shorten procedure time and increase accuracy. Together they offer a safe, reliable and efficient tool to increase clinical confidence in ultrasound-guided procedures such as regional anesthesia, catheter placement, breast biopsy, thyroid biopsy and vascular access. The Infiniti needle guide offers multiple angle capabilities for shallow and deep access, and the open channel design of the needle guide allows instruments to be positioned in the scan plane providing a safe, efficient means for ultrasound-guided puncture procedures.
CIVCO is also announcing the release of its Ultra-Pro II needle guidance system for Esaote’s LA533 transducer. The Ultra-Pro II utilizes a two-part system consisting of a custom reusable biopsy bracket and a disposable snap-on needle guide. The single-use design of the needle guide reduces the risk of cross-contamination. Together, these tools offer physicians reduced technique variability, a shorter learning curve and reduced procedure time. The needle guide directs instruments according to on-screen software guidelines. The Ultra-Pro II needle guidance system is designed to increase the productivity of ultrasound-guided procedures including tissue biopsy, fluid aspirations and catheter placement. In addition, multi-angle brackets offer professionals several needle paths to reach the targeted anatomy during puncture procedures.
