Indication
PPS® Nano safety Huber needles are indicated for:
• Administration or withdrawal of fluids through implantable ports.
• Pressure injection of contrast media into the central venous system (up to 325 psi / 2241 kPa maximum) during CT scan or MRI exams, only with an implantable infusion port that is also indicated for high pressure injection.
19G (ø 1.1mm): maximum recommended infusion rate at 11.8 cPs: 5ml/sec.
20G (ø 0.9mm): maximum recommended infusion rate at 11.8 cPs: 5ml/sec.
22G (ø 0.7mm): maximum recommended infusion rate at 11.8 cPs: 2ml/sec.
All codes can be used on adult and in paediatrics (children > 10 kg).
Product highlights
Ergonomic design:
PPS® Nano is a small, discreet, transparent Huber safety needle that ensures patient comfort. PPS® Nano is suitable for children (> 10 kg) and adults. Like the rest of the PPS® range, this needle makes it possible to visualize the puncture site and monitor any complications.
Its design facilitates singled-handed positive pressure on removal. This helps prevent catheter occlusions (1) (2) (3).
Compatible with high-pressure injections up to 325 psi:
PPS® Nano is compatible with MRI procedures and contrast media injection during CT scans. Gauge, perfusion rate and maximum pressure supported by the needle are indicated on the needle clamp.
Safety for the user:
PPS® Nano participate to Needle Stick Injuries (NSI) prevention. This safe Huber needle offering protection against the risks of NSI (4). During disposal, there is no contact between the body and the needle tip.
From paediatric to adults : PPS® Nano is part of a wide range of Huber needles to suit all patient morphologies:
- 3 gauges (22G, 20G and 19G)
- 6 lengths (15, 17, 20, 25, 30, 35 mm).
PPS® Nano is available with or without a Y site.

Description
PPS® Nano is a curved safety Huber needle fitted with a tubing (extension line), compatible with high pressure injections, CT scan (Computed Tomography) and MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging).PPS® Nano is designed to prevent blood-borne pathogen exposures caused by accidental needlestick injuries.
PPS® Nano is available without Y-site and with Y-site. The needle is available in various lengths (15, 17, 20, 25, 30, 35mm) and diameters (22G, 20G, 19G).
PPS® Nano is supplied with:
- Luer-lock connectors on which closed protective caps are screwed (on the end of the main line) and/or on the Y-site which must not be used as sealing caps.
- One clamp indicating the gauge, the maximum flow rate and the maximum pressure supported by the needle during high pressure injections.
- For Y-connector references, a white clamp on the line not suitable for high-pressure injections.
PPS® Nano are packaged in 12 unit per box.
PPS® Nano is not made with dry or natural rubber latex (raw materials and packaging).
