Spinal Needle
Spinal needles have several important characteristics:
Needle Type: These are Quincke-type spinal needles used for spinal anesthesia or lumbar puncture.
Sterility and Single Use: They are sterile and designed for single use only to prevent infection.
Material and Design:
The needle barrel is made of thin-walled steel, facilitating the reflux of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).
The needle hub is transparent to allow rapid visualization of CSF or blood reflux.
A notch or lug on the hub can indicate the bevel orientation.
Style:
The stylet fits snugly into the needle lumen to prevent coring and minimize tissue damage.
Its hub is colored differently depending on the needle’s outer diameter (standardized color coding).
Spinal pre cut rod
Titanium Alloys: Offer moderate stiffness and strength.
Cobalt Chrome (CoCr): Provides high stiffness and yield strength.
Stainless Steel: A relatively easy-to-bend material with good strength.
Design and Shaping
Pre-cut Length: Unlike longer rods that must be cut in the operating room, pre-cut rods are a specific length, reducing surgical time and the risk of errors during the procedure.
Pre-bent Options: Some systems offer pre-bent rods to achieve the desired spinal curvature (lordosis), which can improve biomechanics and lower the overall height of the spinal construct.
Patient-Specific Rods (PSRs): These are custom-designed and manufactured to the exact patient’s spinal anatomy, offering a more precise fit and potentially better correction of deformities.
Spoon Stretcher
A spoon stretcher (or lifting stretcher).
Its main features are:
Separable design: It consists of two parts that can be separated by pressing latches, usually located at the top and bottom of the stretcher.
Facilitates patient transfer: This design allows the two parts to slide under the patient without excessive lifting or handling, minimizing the risk of further injury, especially in cases of suspected spinal cord injury.
Materials: It is made of aluminum or ABS plastic, making it both sturdy and lightweight.
Adjustable length: The length of the stretcher is usually adjustable to fit the patient’s height.
Safety straps: It is equipped with straps to secure the patient during transport.
Load capacity: Its sturdy design allows it to support a significant weight, often up to 159 kg.
Stabilizing knee brace
The image shows a neoprene stabilizing knee brace with a patellar opening. Its main features are:
Material and Comfort:
- Made of neoprene, it provides a thermo-compression effect that helps maintain body heat and promote blood circulation, which can reduce the risk of strains and aid in the resolution of edema.
- The 3 mm neoprene ensures comfort and flexibility, ideal for sports or everyday use.
- Some models incorporate a breathable and sweat-wicking SBR fabric lining for optimal comfort.
Support and Stability:
- The patellar opening helps keep the kneecap aligned and reduce pressure on it, thus relieving pain and stabilizing the joint.
- Lateral stabilizers or spiral supports can be integrated to improve knee stability and reduce the risk of injury. The adjustable strap systems (double, quadruple, or tabs) allow for compression and support to be adjusted to the user’s needs, ensuring the knee brace stays in place without slipping.
Indications and Benefits:
- Ideal for injury prevention, post-operative and post-traumatic treatment, and pain relief from conditions such as patellar syndrome, ligament sprains, or chondromalacia.
- Provides moderate support to maintain physical activity while protecting the knee.

Material and Adhesive: It is made from saturated crepe paper and uses a natural rubber-based adhesive, providing good adhesion and resistance to heat and humidity.
Standard Compliance: These tapes are designed to comply with international sterilization standards, such as ISO 11140-1:2014, which specifies the requirements for sterilization indicators.
Use: It is used to seal sterilization packages and visually differentiates sterilized items from those that have not yet been sterilized.
Stem Centralizer
A stem centralizer is a component used in hip surgery, particularly during the implantation of cemented hip prostheses. It serves to ensure proper positioning of the femoral stem in the medullary canal and to ensure a uniform thickness of the cement mantle.
Key Features:
Material: Often made of UHMWPE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) or PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate), the same material as bone cement.
Shape and Design: Typically round or pyramidal, designed to fit the distal tip of the femoral stem. Some models are hollow to allow the stem to subside without direct contact with the centralizer, thus avoiding pressure on the stem tip.
Function:
Centering: Helps center the femoral stem in the medullary canal, ensuring a uniform cement mantle around the stem.
Bone-prosthesis contact prevention: Avoids direct contact between the bone and the distal end of the prosthesis.
Cement mantle optimization: Helps maintain a consistent cement thickness, essential for the stability and longevity of the prosthesis.
Positioning: Distal centralizers are available, attached to the end of the stem, and proximal centralizers can improve cement penetration and cementing pressure in the proximal region of the femur.
Sizes: Available in various sizes to match the femoral canal diameter or the size of the cement restrictor.
Placement: Slipped onto the distal tip of the stem prior to implantation, sometimes with a thin layer of cement to ensure good adhesion.
Stepladder
The stepladder is designed to provide safe assistance to patients and staff in medical environments. Its main features include:
Robust and hygienic materials: They are made of stainless steel, ensuring durability, corrosion resistance, and ease of cleaning to maintain hygiene.

Stability and safety: The feet are equipped with non-slip rubber tips for optimal grip and increased stability, even on smooth surfaces.
High load capacity: These stepladders are designed to support a significant weight, often up to 150 kg, ensuring reliable and safe use for a wide range of patients.
Adapted dimensions: Available in various heights and with a variable number of steps (often two), their dimensions are designed to facilitate access to examination tables or other medical equipment.
Compact design: Their format is designed to be space-saving and easy to store, which is an advantage in medical spaces where space optimization is important.
