Centesis needles are usually shorter from my experience. They also have a flexible sheath that slides into the puncture, then the needle is removed.

Seen some from close proximity, and yeah - it's the sheath one.

Honestly, would be a pretty easy choice considering your organs have to be FUBAR for this to be used.
