Description
the PM025-A is an ON-Q Pain Relief System with SilverSoaker Antimicrobial Catheter** manufactured by Avanos Medical. This system is specifically designed for high-volume delivery over a larger surgical area, combining a 400 ml reservoir with a long 5-inch infusion segment and a high flow rate.
The "-A" designation signifies the inclusion of the SilverSoaker* catheter, which provides antimicrobial protection and uniform medication diffusion.
Key Features
SilverSoaker Antimicrobial Catheter:* The catheter is impregnated with silver to inhibit bacterial growth on the device surface. It utilizes a porous hollow-fiber membrane to ensure the local anesthetic diffuses evenly across the entire 5-inch segment, preventing "hot spots" of medication.
Large 400 ml Reservoir: This is one of the higher-capacity reservoirs in the ON-Q line, providing enough medication to support a high flow rate for several days of therapy.
High Flow Rate (5 ml/hr): Delivers a robust volume of anesthetic to saturate large surgical sites, making it ideal for major procedures where a standard 2 ml/hr rate might be insufficient.
Non-Narcotic Relief: Provides continuous, targeted analgesia directly to the source of pain, helping to reduce systemic opioid consumption and associated side effects like nausea and sedation.
Fixed-Flow Safety: The flow rate is factory-set and cannot be altered by the patient, ensuring consistent delivery and enhancing safety in a home-care environment.
