Description

The Avanos PM018-A is an ON-Q Fixed Flow Pump Kit* that includes Dual SILVERSOAKER Antimicrobial Catheters*. This is an elastomeric, non-narcotic pain relief system designed to automatically and continuously deliver local anesthetic to two separate surgical sites or a large wound area for up to 3–5 days.

The "PM" designation indicates its use in post-surgical pain management, and the kit is specifically configured for dual-site delivery (two infusion sites).


Technical Specifications

  • Fill Volume: 400 mL.

  • Total Flow Rate: 4 mL/hr (Dual Site: 2 mL/hr per catheter).

  • Catheter Type: SILVERSOAKER* Antimicrobial Catheter (Silver-coated to prevent bacterial growth).

  • Catheter Soaker Length: 2.5 inches (65 mm) per catheter.

  • Catheter Total Length: 26.5 inches (67.3 cm).

  • Needle Size: 17G Split Introducer Needles (2 included).

  • Sterility: Sterile, Single-Use (Ethylene Oxide sterilization).


Kit Contents

The PM018-A is a comprehensive procedural kit that includes:

  • (1) ON-Q* Elastomeric Continuous Infusion Pump (400 mL).

  • (2) SILVERSOAKER* Antimicrobial Catheters (2.5-inch soaker segments).

  • (2) 17G Split Introducer Needles.

  • (2) Syringes (for filling and priming).

  • (1) Carrying Case (to allow for patient mobility).

  • Dressings & Labels: Tegaderm®, Steri-Strip®, medication labels, and chart labels.


Key Features

  • Dual-Site Relief: Engineered for procedures involving two separate surgical incisions or a large surgical area that requires medication delivery at two distinct points.

  • Antimicrobial Protection: The SilverSoaker* catheter features a specialized silver coating that reduces the risk of infection at the catheter site during extended multi-day use.

  • Uniform Distribution: The "Soaker" technology uses a hollow-fiber design to ensure the local anesthetic is distributed evenly across the entire 2.5-inch infusion segment of each catheter.

  • Non-Electronic Infusion: The elastomeric pump is purely mechanical, requiring no batteries or electronics. This makes the system lightweight and easy for patients to manage during home recovery.


Primary Uses

This 400 mL / 4 mL/hr dual-site kit is commonly utilized for:

  • Bilateral Procedures: Such as bilateral breast surgery, bilateral hernia repairs, or bilateral orthopedic procedures.

  • Large Incisions: Where two catheters are necessary to cover the span of a single long wound (e.g., extensive abdominal surgeries).

  • Surgical Site + Nerve Block: Providing a combination of local infiltration at the wound and a peripheral nerve block.
