Description
The Avanos PM005 is a high-capacity Dual Epidural model within the ON-Q Pain Relief System*. It is specifically engineered to deliver local anesthetic to two separate epidural sites or nerve clusters simultaneously from a single reservoir, providing balanced regional anesthesia.
Key Features
Dual Site Delivery: Features a bifurcated tubing system that splits the pump's output into two separate catheters, allowing for bilateral or multi-level pain relief from one device.
Balanced Flow Distribution: The total flow rate of 4 mL/hr is evenly divided between the two lines, providing a consistent 2 mL/hr per site.
Non-Opioid Analgesia: Targeted for regional anesthesia to block pain signals before they reach the central nervous system, helping to minimize systemic opioid use and side effects.
Maintenance-Free & Silent: Operates purely on elastomeric pressure without the need for batteries, power cords, or electronic programming.
Radiopaque Catheters: Both included catheters are visible under X-ray or fluoroscopy, allowing clinicians to verify precise placement within the epidural space.
Integrated Safety Filtering: Includes specialized filters to ensure the medication delivered to both sensitive epidural sites remains free of air and particulates.
