Components of autoclavable OPU System

  • Outer pipe: Needle guide
  • Middle pipe with male Luer for SL Needle for flushing.
  • Narrow pipe: for aspiration

The  aim of this innovative technique was to replace painful 12 gauge DL Needles with 17 or 15 gauge  disposable SL Needles guaranteeing optimal sharpness.

A 4 Way Stop Cock makes this technology possible.

Dead space; length of needle only!

Forming ECHOTIP

  • Insert needle at modified WOLFCRAFT cutting device with mechanical 
  • Rotating needle until reaching length of Echo Tip of  aprox. 10mm.
  • Cleaning needle in usual manner and autoclaving.

Tubing System:

  • DISPOSABLE
  • 1 disp. tubing, 100cm
  • 4-Way Stop Cock , (standard 562535  red color ELCAM, Israel).
  • 1 disp. tubing 50cm
  • Autoclavable 
  • Silicone Stopper  for NUNC Vial or glas bottle glas  with 1 metallic female and 1 metallic mail Luer.

Opt. 1) : Assistance turns  4 Way Stop Cock 90°for flushing  and injects Flushing Medium via 3 Way Stop Cock on ohysitians comanso,

Opt. 2):  Flushing with  Stop Cock Mechanism of MECHANICAL or STEINER COMBI PUMP:

  • 1 additional 5ocm tubing connecting 50cc Syringe at Warming Element of Pump with 4 Way Stop
  • Cock ( ELCAM) . Stop Cock clicked at STEINER PUMP.
  • Advantage: constant temperature of  Flushing Medium. ( Hand temperature approx, 27°! ) 
  • Minimizing hazard of contamination.
  • Physician can choose amount and velocity of flushing fluid.
