Description
The PMF18-60-10CS is a Radiopaque Curved Sharp Radiofrequency (RF) Cannula manufactured by Avanos Medical. It is a sterile, single-use surgical component used to create a precise pathway for an RF probe during radiofrequency ablation procedures for pain management.
The "CS" designation in the model number typically indicates the Case packaging configuration, while the core specs highlight its use for shallow anatomical targets requiring a curved approach.
Key Features
Radiopaque Platinum Band: Features a platinum marker at the distal end of the active tip, providing high-contrast visualization under fluoroscopy to confirm the exact lesion location.
Curved Tip Geometry: The curved distal end allows the clinician to "steer" the cannula around bony landmarks or follow specific anatomical contours to reach the target nerve more effectively than a straight needle.
Sure-Grip Hub: Includes an ergonomic, color-coded hub (typically pink for 18 G) for secure manipulation and immediate identification of the cannula size.
Localized Insulation: The stainless steel shaft is insulated with medical-grade coating except for the 10 mm active tip, concentrating the thermal energy strictly at the target site.
Sharp Bevel: Designed with a sharp, precision-ground tip to facilitate smooth percutaneous entry through the skin and subcutaneous tissues.
