Description
The Avanos PS6504-A is a high-flow, antimicrobial model within the ON-Q Pain Relief System*. It is an elastomeric infusion pump kit designed to deliver a continuous, fixed flow of local anesthetic. The "-A" suffix indicates that the kit includes a SILVERSOAKER* antimicrobial catheter.
Key Features
SILVERSOAKER Antimicrobial Catheter:* The catheter features a silver-ion coating designed to reduce the risk of bacterial infection at the insertion site while providing even distribution of the medication.
High Fixed Flow Rate: Pre-set to deliver a steady 5.0 mL per hour, making it suitable for procedures or patients that require a more robust delivery of anesthetic than standard 2.0 mL/hr models.
Non-Opioid Analgesia: Specifically designed to provide targeted, localized pain relief to reduce the need for systemic narcotics and their associated side effects.
Maintenance-Free & Silent: Operates purely on mechanical elastomeric pressure; it requires no batteries, electricity, or electronic programming.
Radiopaque Catheter: The catheter is visible under X-ray or fluoroscopy, allowing for precise placement verification within the body.
Integrated Safety: Features a built-in filter to ensure the medication stream is free of air and particulate matter before it reaches the patient.
