Venous Blood Collection Needles Scalp Vein Sets Blue 23G Medical Grade Sterile Needle

A scalp vein needle is a type of medical device used to access veins in the scalp or forehead for drawing blood or for intravenous (IV) therapy. It is similar in design to a butterfly needle, with a small-gauge needle attached to a flexible tubing and two "wings" that can be pressed down to stabilize the needle during insertion and removed after insertion.

FEATURES

1. Small size: Scalp vein needles are relatively small in size, which makes them suitable for infants and young children.

2. Thin wall needle: The needle of a scalp vein needle is typically made of a thin wall material, which allows for better flow rates and less damage to the vein during insertion.

3. Gauge size: Scalp vein needles come in various gauge sizes, typically ranging from 20 to 25 gauge. The gauge size refers to the thickness of the needle, with a smaller gauge number indicating a thicker needle.

4. Lumen size: The lumen, or the hollow space inside the needle, is relatively small in a scalp vein needle. This makes it less suitable for high-volume blood draws or for administering fluids or medications at a high flow rate.

5. Flexible tubing: A flexible tubing is attached to the needle, which allows for greater ease in handling and movement during the insertion process.

6. Sterilization: Like all medical devices, scalp vein needles need to be sterilized before use to prevent infection.

7. Single-use: Scalp vein needles are typically single-use devices, meaning that they are disposed of after one use to prevent the spread of infection.

8. Winged design: Scalp vein needles have two flexible "wings" that can be pressed down to stabilize the needle during insertion and removed after insertion. The design helps to reduce discomfort and trauma during the insertion process.
