Features

Versatility:
Lumbar puncture, lumbar anesthesia, epidural anesthesia, epidural anesthesia, combined spinal-epidural block, cerebrospinal fluid pressure measurement and intrathecal administration

Clear landmarks like iliac crest, lumbar spinous process, easy for position identification.
Wrong puncture angle can lead puncture needle to the vertebra.
Realistic epidural and subarachnoid anesthesia operation available.
A sense of breakthrough can be felt twice when doing the puncture, such as penetrating the ligamentum flavum etc.
