Description
The Avanos P270X4 is a high-flow, fixed-rate model within the ON-Q Pain Relief System*. It is an elastomeric infusion pump designed for patients who require a more substantial and continuous delivery of local anesthetic to manage post-surgical pain without the use of narcotics.
Key Features
High Flow Rate: Pre-set to deliver a steady 4.0 mL per hour, making it an ideal choice for larger surgical sites or patients requiring a more intensive level of regional anesthesia.
Efficient Reservoir Size: The 270 mL capacity is optimized to handle the higher flow rate while remaining portable enough for patients to carry comfortably during recovery.
Non-Opioid Analgesia: Delivers medication directly to the source of pain, helping to reduce systemic opioid consumption and the risk of associated side effects like nausea, constipation, and sedation.
Maintenance-Free & Silent: Operates purely on mechanical elastomeric pressure (the "balloon" force). It requires no batteries, electricity, or electronic programming.
Integrated Safety: Features a built-in in-line filter to protect the patient from air or particulate matter in the medication stream.
Simple Fixed-Flow Design: Unlike variable-rate models, the flow rate is constant and cannot be adjusted by the patient, ensuring a consistent dose as prescribed.
Technical Specifications
Model Number: P270X4 (ON-Q* Elastomeric Pump).
Fill Volume: 270 mL.
Flow Rate: 4.0 mL per hour (Fixed).
Nominal Infusion Duration: Approximately 67.5 hours (roughly 2.8 days).
Sterilization: Gamma Radiation (GAMEO).
Packaging: Standard unit of sale is a case of 5 units.
Primary Uses
Moderate to Large Incision Sites: Ideal for general or orthopedic surgeries where a 2.0 mL/hr rate is insufficient to cover the entire pain field.
Robust Nerve Blocks: Often used for continuous peripheral nerve blocks (CPNB) in cases where a higher basal rate is needed to maintain effective motor or sensory blockage.
Enhanced Recovery (ERAS): Supports clinical protocols that prioritize non-narcotic pain control to facilitate earlier patient mobilization and discharge.
Ambulatory Support: Its compact and portable design allows patients to transition home while still receiving professional-grade pain therapy.
