Description
The Avanos P270X5 is a high-flow, mid-sized model within the ON-Q Pain Relief System*. It is an elastomeric infusion pump designed to deliver a continuous, fixed flow of local anesthetic to a surgical site or nerve cluster to provide non-opioid pain management.
Key Features
High Fixed Flow Rate: Pre-set to deliver a steady 5.0 mL per hour, making it suitable for larger surgical areas or patients who require a more robust level of regional anesthesia than standard 2.0 mL/hr models.
Mid-Sized Reservoir: The 270 mL capacity is optimized to handle the higher flow rate while remaining portable and lightweight for patient comfort.
Non-Opioid Analgesia: Delivers local anesthetic directly to the source of pain, helping to reduce the need for systemic narcotics and minimizing their associated side effects like nausea and sedation.
Maintenance-Free & Silent: Operates purely on mechanical elastomeric pressure (the "balloon" force). It requires no batteries, electricity, or electronic programming.
Integrated Safety Filter: Features a built-in, in-line filter to protect the patient from air or particulate matter in the medication stream.
Core Pump Design: As part of the "P" series, this unit focuses on the core pump functionality and is typically paired with standard or specialized catheters during the surgical procedure.
Technical Specifications
Model Number: P270X5 (ON-Q* Elastomeric Pump).
Fill Volume: 270 mL.
Flow Rate: 5.0 mL per hour (Fixed).
Nominal Infusion Duration: Approximately 54 hours (roughly 2.25 days).
Sterilization: Gamma Radiation (GAMEO).
Packaging: Standard unit of sale is a case of 5 units.
Primary Uses
Intensive Post-Surgical Recovery: Ideal for procedures involving larger incisions where a high volume of local anesthetic is needed during the peak pain window (first 48+ hours).
Robust Nerve Blocks: Often used for continuous peripheral nerve blocks (CPNB) in cases where a high basal rate is necessary to maintain effective sensory and motor blockage.
Enhanced Recovery (ERAS): Supports clinical protocols that prioritize non-narcotic pain control to facilitate earlier patient mobilization.
Ambulatory Support: Its compact design allows patients to be discharged from the hospital while still receiving high-flow, professional-grade pain therapy.
