ABSTRACT:
The depth measuring device employs a solid needle with a slidable rider as well as a transparent tube which is provided with a graduated scale and a closed bottom or marking lines. During penetration through the skin into a vascular implant device, the rider slides along the needle. When the needle is returned into the transparent tube and properly seated, with the end of the needle on the bottom or at the marking lines, the position of the rider can be read from the scale to indicate the depth of penetration of the needle. An appropriately sized right-angled Huber needle can then be selected for use with the implanted device.
