Description
The Avanos PS12502 is a specialized elastomeric pump kit within the ON-Q Pain Relief System*. It is designed to deliver a continuous, fixed flow of local anesthetic directly to a surgical site, helping to manage post-operative pain without the use of systemic narcotics.
Key Features
SOAKER Catheter Technology:* Includes a 5-inch (12.5 cm) "soaker" section designed to distribute medication evenly across the surgical wound or nerve area.

Maintenance-Free Design: A completely mechanical, single-use pump that requires no batteries, power cords, or complex electronic programming.
Radiopaque Components: The catheter is visible under X-ray or fluoroscopy, allowing for easy verification of placement in the clinical setting.
Safety Filtering: Features an integrated filter to prevent air or particulates from entering the infusion site.
Ambulatory Mobility: Lightweight and portable, allowing patients to maintain movement and recover in the comfort of their own home.
