Verza Needle Guidance System for VerzaLink Transducers
Verza™ Needle Guidance System for VerzaLink™ Transducers
VerzaLink transducers use the proprietary attachment feature eliminating the need for a reusable bracket. The guide's innovative design reduces blind zone and unguided needle length while providing high stability for improved accuracy. Verza offers maximum versatility with a five-angle approach for improved anatomical access while also featuring an expanded gauge range – accommodating 14 different sizes of interventional instruments. The Verza Guidance System directs instruments according to on-screen ultrasound system guidelines. Setting a new standard for ease-of-use, Verza features easy-to-read gauge sizes, angle indicator and repeatable bolt action quick-release for secure instrument detachment. Verza is sold in a convenient sterile procedure kit with telescopically-folded CIV-Flex cover, gel packet and colored elastic bands. Verza accepts a full range of interventional devices including: 12F, 10F, 9F, 8F, 7F, 14G, 15G, 16G, 17G, 18G, 20G, 21G, 22G and 25G. The Verza guidance system is intended for use with pediatric and adult patients.
