For use with the Philips Ergo S4-2, S5-1 and S5-2 ultrasound transducers

CIVCO’s reusable needle guidance system incorporates a multi-angle approach for improved anatomical access. Simple adjustment of the angle thumbscrew allows selection of the desired angle of access and securely locks the guide into position, providing a direct visual path for instruments to follow according to on-screen guidelines. A large quick-release tab allows easy detachment of the device from the transducer providing physicians increased flexibility during procedures. A unique v-slot insertion point accepts a full range of gauge sizes including: 8.5 French-23 gauge. Needle guides are shipped non-sterile with cleaning brushes. Select kits include sterile transducer covers. Needle guides should be cleaned, disinfected and sterilized according to your CIVCO User’s Guide.

NOTE: Reusable needle guides are recommended to follow FDA Guidelines for Reprocessing Ultrasound Transducer Assemblies including use of sterile barrier sheath, cleaning brush and proper cleaning and sterilization of the device between patients.
