Sprotte Spinal Needle

Pajunk’s SPROTTE® spinal needle has set the standard for atraumatic dural puncture since its inception in the 1970s. The Sprotte’s atraumatic puncture and optimal gliding properties minimize possible injuries and prevent foreign bodies and tissue particles from being carried into the subarachnoid space. The atraumatic tip also reduces incidence of Post-Dural Puncture Headache (PDPH)³. Due to its "non-cutting" point geometry, the Sprotte needle does not puncture the skin as freely as a conventional Quincke needle.

‍Most Sprotte needles come with an introducer which can also be purchased separately. Dyna Medical also carries SprotteSono, an echogenic Sprotte spinal needle.

Overview of key advantages

Features & Advantages

1. Atraumatic Tip Design

The ogive shaped tip significantly reduces the risk of PDPH and the rounded edges of the lateral eye minimize trauma to the dura mater
Minimizes chance of PDPH³
Consistent tactile feedback

2. Lateral Eye

Burr-free, rounded atraumatic edges
Optimized gliding properties
Minimum chance of tissue coring and carry-over into the subarachnoidspace

3. Optimal Lateral Eye Size & Placement

Unobstructed backflow, even if the eye is partially blocked by the arachnoid membrane
Allows for quicker CSF flashback¹

4. Precision-Ground Metal Stylet

Lateral eye closes precisely to minimize chance of tissue coring²
Polished, rounded tip prevents abrasion on the inner needle tube

5. Standard Hub

Designed for rapid detection of even the smallest quantities of CSF
Reduced inner space

6. Magnified Hub

Clear, magnifying needle hub allows for easy visualization of blood or CSF
Easier detection of CSF flashback

7. Colour-Coded Needle Hub for Size Identification

Easy identification of needle size

8. Introducer with Facet Tip

Diameter and length perfectly matched to each spinal needle size
Minimal reduction of usable working length of the spinal needle
Funnel-shaped hub to reduce chance of spinal needle tip damage during insertion
