Description
The CB004 is an elastomeric infusion system that utilizes a pressurized internal balloon to provide the mechanical force necessary for medication delivery. It is a "fixed-flow" device, meaning the flow rate is determined by the internal diameter of the capillary tubing and cannot be changed by the patient or clinician. This model is often used when a significant volume of anesthetic is required to cover a large surgical area or provide a high-concentration block for a shorter duration.

Key Features
High Capacity (600 ml): This is one of the larger "standard" reservoirs in the ON-Q line, providing 50% more volume than the 400 ml models (like the CB003).
10 ml/hr Flow Rate: Delivers a robust volume of anesthetic per hour, which is critical for saturating large surgical incisions or dense muscle groups.
NRFit™ Safety Standard: Features specialized connectors that prevent misconnections with intravenous (IV) lines, adhering to global ISO 80369-6 standards for neuraxial and regional anesthesia.
Integrated Filtration: The system includes an in-line 0.2-micron air-venting filter to prevent air from entering the surgical site or nerve sheath.
Clinical Application
The CB004 is typically selected for major surgeries involving large incisions or procedures that require a higher volume of fluid to be effective, such as:
Extensive Abdominal Surgeries: Such as abdominoplasty, "tummy tucks," or major bowel resections.
Complex Orthopedic Reconstruction: Procedures where a large area of tissue or multiple nerve branches need to be bathed in anesthetic.
Thoracic Surgeries: Where high-volume paravertebral blocks are used to manage pain from rib or chest wall incisions.
