Medical Disposable Arteriovenous Fistula Puncture Needle Av Fistula
Needle 17g for Hospital Use
AV Fistula Needle Overview:
AV Fistula Needle, also known as Arteriovenous Fistula Needle, is a
medical device used for hemodialysis in patients with end-stage
renal disease. It is specifically designed for accessing
arteriovenous fistulas, which are surgically created connections
between an artery and a vein.
Components and Functions:
- Needle Cannula: Pierces the skin and accesses the AV fistula for
blood withdrawal and return.
- Hub: Connects to the dialysis tubing for blood flow.
- Wings: Provide stability during needle insertion and removal.
- Safety Mechanism: Some needles are equipped with safety features to
prevent needlestick injuries.

Product Uses and Advantages:
- Purpose: Facilitates hemodialysis by providing a reliable access
point for blood withdrawal and return.
- Advantages: Minimizes the risk of infection, ensures efficient
dialysis treatment, and promotes patient comfort during the
procedure.
Instructions for Use:
- Preparation: Ensure proper aseptic technique during setup.
- Insertion: Place the needle into the AV fistula following
guidelines for needle placement.
- Connection: Attach the needle hub to the dialysis tubing for blood
flow.

needle in place during treatment.
AV Fistula Needle vs. Scalp Needle:
AV Fistula Needle:
- Usage: Used for hemodialysis in patients with end-stage renal
disease.
- Function: Accesses arteriovenous fistulas for blood withdrawal and
return during dialysis.
- Components: Includes a needle cannula, hub, wings, and safety
features.
- Application: Specifically designed for accessing AV fistulas for
medical procedures.
Scalp Needle:
- Usage: Typically used in pediatric medicine for procedures like
scalp vein catheterization.
- Function: Accesses veins on the scalp for various medical purposes.
- Size: Generally smaller and more delicate than AV Fistula Needles.
- Application: Primarily used in pediatric settings for specific
medical procedures.
Key Differences:
- Application: AV Fistula Needles are designed for hemodialysis in
patients with kidney disease, while Scalp Needles are often used in
pediatric medicine for procedures like scalp vein catheterization.
- Size and Design: AV Fistula Needles are larger and more robust to
access AV fistulas efficiently, whereas Scalp Needles are typically
smaller and more delicate for use on the scalp.
- Function: AV Fistula Needles access arteriovenous fistulas for
hemodialysis, while Scalp Needles access veins on the scalp for
various medical procedures in pediatric patients.
Application Places:
- Dialysis Centers: Used during hemodialysis sessions in medical
facilities.
- Hospitals: For patients requiring dialysis treatment.
- Home Dialysis: Some patients may use AV Fistula Needles for home
hemodialysis under medical supervision.
