Luer needle extender

16 devices · GMDN 64749

A Luer needle extender is a slim, rigid tube designed to attach to a Luer needle at one end and accept another Luer connection at the other, effectively increasing the needle’s reach. It is used clinically to access deeper or otherwise difficult-to-reach anatomical sites during procedures where a standard needle length is insufficient.

This category consists of reusable devices that contain no additional functionality beyond extending needle length. As such, they are typically regulated as simple accessories or components, often falling under general medical device rules without requiring standalone classification, and are supplied for repeated use after proper cleaning and sterilization.
