Avanos PMF20-100-10CS

The Avanos PMF20-100-10CS is a Radiopaque Curved Sharp Radiofrequency (RF) Cannula. This device is a cornerstone of interventional pain management, providing an insulated pathway for an RF probe to reach target nerves.

The "CS" suffix stands for Curved Sharp, indicating a beveled tip designed for easier tissue penetration compared to blunt versions.

The model number specifies its dimensions: 20 Gauge thickness, 100 mm length, and a 10 mm active (uninsulated) tip.

Key Features

  • Curved Sharp Tip: The sharp, beveled tip allows for precise penetration through tough ligaments and fascia. The curved shaft gives the clinician the ability to "steer" the cannula around bony obstructions to achieve optimal parallel placement against the target nerve.

  • Integrated Radiopaque Marker: Features a high-visibility platinum band at the distal end of the active tip. This allows for superior visualization under fluoroscopy, ensuring the clinician can accurately map the boundaries of the intended thermal lesion.

  • Large Active Tip: The 10 mm active tip creates a larger, more comprehensive thermal lesion. This increased "capture zone" is ideal for nerves with variable anatomy, ensuring a higher probability of successful denervation.

  • Medical-Grade Insulation: The entire shaft is insulated except for the 10 mm tip. This ensures the radiofrequency energy is delivered only to the target area, protecting the skin and surrounding non-target tissues.

  • Sure-Grip Hub: Features a color-coded hub (Yellow for 20G) with a textured surface, providing ergonomic control and easy identification of the gauge size in a clinical setting.

Technical Specifications

  • Model Number: PMF20-100-10CS

  • Cannula Gauge: 20 G

  • Cannula Length: 100 mm (10 cm)

  • Active Tip Length: 10 mm

  • Tip Shape: Curved Sharp

  • Sterility: Sterile, Single-Use

  • Color Code: Yellow (20 Gauge)

  • Material: Stainless steel with medical-grade insulation

Package Contents

The PMF20-100-10CS is typically sold in boxes of 10 units. Each sterile, individually pouched unit includes:

  • 1 Curved Sharp RF Cannula: The insulated 20G cannula with a 10 mm active tip.

  • 1 Matching Stylet: A removable inner wire that maintains the cannula's integrity and prevents tissue coring during insertion.

Primary Uses

  • Lumbar Medial Branch Neurotomy: Used to ablate the nerves responsible for chronic facet joint pain in the lower back.

  • Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Ablation: The 10 mm tip is preferred for targeting the lateral branches of the sacral nerves where a broader lesion is necessary.

  • Thoracic Facet Denervation: Used for middle and upper back pain, where the curve helps navigate the steeper angles of the thoracic spine.

  • Large-Volume Lesioning: Preferred in cases where anatomical variation requires a wider thermal footprint to ensure effective pain interruption.
