Description
The Avanos PMB01 is a specialized configuration of the ON-Q Pain Relief System*. It is an elastomeric pump kit that includes the ONDEMAND Bolus Button*, designed to provide continuous local anesthesia with the added ability for the patient to deliver extra "breakthrough" pain relief.
Key Features
ONDEMAND Bolus Button:* Includes a patient-controlled button that allows for a supplemental dose (bolus) of medication when breakthrough pain occurs.
Integrated Lockout Time: The bolus button features a mechanical refractory period (typically 60 minutes) to prevent over-delivery and ensure patient safety.
SilverSoaker Catheter:* Often bundled with an antimicrobial silver-coated catheter designed to distribute local anesthetic evenly across the surgical site while reducing infection risk.
Dual Delivery System: Provides both a "Basal" (continuous) flow and a "Bolus" (on-demand) flow in a single, non-electronic device.
Non-Narcotic Therapy: Delivers local anesthetic (like bupivacaine or ropivacaine) directly to the site, significantly reducing the need for systemic opioid medications.
Maintenance-Free: Completely mechanical operation with no batteries or electronics, making it easy for patients to use at home.

Post-Operative Pain Management: Used following major orthopedic, abdominal, or cardiothoracic surgeries to provide targeted pain relief.
Breakthrough Pain Control: Ideal for patients who experience spikes in pain during movement or physical therapy sessions in the early stages of recovery.
Surgical Site Infusion: The catheter is placed directly into the surgical wound or "pocket" to numb the area locally for 3–5 days.
Opioid-Sparing Recovery: Used as a cornerstone of multimodal analgesia to help patients avoid the side effects of narcotics, such as nausea, constipation, and sedation.
