ARROW® UltraQuik™ Peripheral Nerve Block Needles Receive FDA 510(k) Clearance
LIMERICK, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Teleflex Incorporated (NYSE: TFX) today announced that the ARROW
UltraQuik peripheral nerve block (PNB) needles have received 510(k)
clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
ARROW UltraQuik peripheral nerve block needles are designed to help
increase overall block success for clinicians who use
ultrasound-guidance when performing single-injection PNBs. UltraQuik
needles maintain many of the same clinician-inspired features of the
ARROW® StimuQuik® ECHO needles, including five
grooved rings at the distal tip of the needle to help clinicians
identify the needle tip under ultrasound.
"Teleflex is pleased to add the ARROW UltraQuik to our line of
peripheral nerve block needles," said Cary Vance, President, Anesthesia
and Respiratory Division. "The ARROW UltraQuik, StimuQuik and StimuQuik
ECHO needles allow us to now offer products to clinicians performing
peripheral nerve blocks, whether they use ultrasound only, nerve
stimulation only, or a combined approach.”
