English term

enhanced needle

English to Chinese Medical Medical: Instruments
they are 24% thinner, with a wire designed for smaller, more diseased vessels. Since the wire diameter is thinner they create a 44% smaller hole in tissue, which may result in less leakage at the anastomotic site. ”A“ also has a broader (45°) tip than ”B“ (22°). This improved point geometry makes them less resistant to damage and able to penetrate better after multiple passes. ”A“ Series Needle also has ...Needle coating which allows it to stay sharper longer.

How do the doctors usually call these kind of needle? Is "增强针“ ok?

加强/增强/改进(型)针

The meaning of enhanced is very clear here, it's little important to put 加强/增强/改进, however, according to Chinese flowing, we'd better put as 加强/增强/改进针 or 加强/增强/改进型针

Hope it's helpful

Peggy, be careful: in your question, "Needle coating which allows it to stay sharper longer." that indicates it's not the 注射增强免疫力的针剂 who can match your context...

改进的针,改进的注射针

改进的针,改进的注射针

I wouldn't translate it as "增强针", because "增强针" can have another meaning i.e. 免疫增强针, as in 注射增强免疫力的针剂
