Description
The PMP-145C-N is the extended-length version of the Avanos Nitinol RF Probe (Curved).
Designed for deep-tissue procedures, this probe utilizes a nickel-titanium (Nitinol) alloy to provide maximum flexibility and durability when navigating complex anatomical paths.
Technical Specifications
Model Number: PMP-145C-N
Probe Length: 145 mm (14.5 cm)
Tip Shape: Curved (indicated by the "C")
Enables the clinician to "steer" the probe during placement.
Allows the active tip to be positioned parallel to a nerve for optimized ablation.
Material: Nitinol Alloy (indicated by the "N")
Super-elastic properties allow it to return to its original shape even after significant bending.
Highly resistant to kinking, offering a longer service life than standard stainless steel.
Sterility: Non-Sterile (Reusable)
Must be steam-sterilized (autoclaved) before each clinical use.
Monitoring: Integrated Thermocouple sensor for high-accuracy temperature and impedance feedback.
Compatibility: Fully compatible with all Avanos, Halyard, and Baylis RF generators (e.g., CRG-BASIC, PMG-115).
Key Features
Extended Reach: The 145 mm length is specifically designed for deep anatomical targets that standard 54 mm or 100 mm probes cannot reach.
Durability: Nitinol’s shape-memory characteristics ensure the probe maintains its structural integrity and curvature through hundreds of uses and sterilization cycles.
Precision Control: When used with a matching 145 mm curved cannula, the Nitinol shaft provides a smooth, low-friction interface that enhances the clinician's tactile feedback.
Color-Coded Identification: The hub is color-coded to ensure it is matched to the correct gauge cannula (typically used with 18G, 20G, or 22G 145 mm needles).
