  • Precision, patient care, ease of use, and fit – these are the main criteria physicians evaluate when it comes to choosing the right spinal needle. The fact is not all needles are equal, vary drastically when it comes to both quality and clinical outcomes. I’d love to share with you some specifics about how our Gertie Marx Atraumatic Spinal Needles are superior to our competitors, designed to increase your precision and ease of use. The Gertie Marx needles are designed to fit perfectly in the subarachnoid space, and come in the largest variety of sizes available. If you read our latest blog post (https://lnkd.in/gQ4dfZcc) it breaks down specifically why our needles outperform the Pencan, Sprotte, Whitacre, and Quincke spinal needles. Not only do each of these needles have design flaws, but they also have many FDA filings against them. We, on the other hand, have had no FDA filings against us for the past 30 years. Are needle shortages affecting your hospital? We ship within 24 hours. No back orders. If you’d like to feel the difference, I’d be happy to send you sterile samples to try. Please feel free to reach out to me here, via email at Sales@IMD-Corp.com, or call me directly at (914) 523-3797.

As a well-known complication following lumbar punctures and spinal anesthesia, medical institutions have long looked for a solution. Research has shown that both the needle size and needle shape play an integral role in reducing or eliminating the onset of PDPH. That’s where we come in. IMD Corp proudly offers products proven to be extremely effective at reducing PDPH. For more than 30 years medical institutions have relied on our product lines, as we work hand in hand with doctors across the globe.

From bilateral frontal or occipital headaches to neck pain and hearing loss, many note that their PDPH symptoms worsen when standing or sitting. The Gertie Marx spinal needle was developed to address these exact issues. Some of the most notable benefits of the Gertie Marx needles include: The Widest Range of Needle Sizes With the widest range of needle sizes available, our Gertie Marx spinal needles are perfectly designed for patients of every size – from pediatrics through bariatrics. The spinal needles are available in widths from 22G to 27G and in lengths from 50mm to 215mm (2” to 8.5”). Superior Design for Unmatched Precision and Control The Gertie Marx spinal needle boasts a unique, distinct “pop” when the dura is penetrated, which sets the standard for dramatically improving first time results. In fact, the Gertie Marx spinal needle is the only patented tip in the United States. In addition, the atraumatic needle has thin walls, allowing for fast flash of CSF to confirm needle placement. These features set the Gertie Marx spinal needle apart: ·      2.5x magnification window on crystal clear hub  ·      360 degree rotating stylet cap that saves time when repeated withdrawal and reinsertion of stylet is required  ·      Two side port indicators on the needle hub and introducer that identify the position of the eye of the needle IMD’s spinal needles are designed to provide a simple and effective way to dramatically reduce PDPH.
