Description
The CB003 is an elastomeric infusion system that uses the mechanical tension of a pressurized internal balloon reservoir to drive medication through a flow-restricting capillary. It is a "fixed-flow" device, meaning the dosage rate is pre-set at the factory and cannot be manipulated by the patient, which enhances safety in home-care settings.
Technical Specifications
| Feature | Specification |
| Fill Volume | 400 ml |
| Flow Rate | 10 ml/hr (Fixed) |
| Duration | Approx. 40 hours (~1.6 days) |
| Tubing Type | Single Lead |
| NRFit™ Connector | Yes (Yellow-coded for regional anesthesia safety) |
Key Features
High Flow Rate (10 ml/hr): This model is designed to deliver a higher volume of anesthetic per hour. This is particularly useful for saturating larger surgical wounds or providing a more "dense" nerve block.
NRFit™ Safety: Utilizes specialized connectors that are physically incompatible with Luer-lock IV connections, preventing the potentially fatal error of injecting local anesthetic into a patient's intravenous line.
Mechanical Reliability: Because it lacks electronics, motors, or batteries, it is completely silent and provides a consistent flow based on the physical properties of the elastomeric balloon.
Integrated Filtration: Contains a 0.2-micron air-venting filter to protect against air embolisms and a 1.2-micron particulate filter to ensure the purity of the medication delivered to the patient.

Clinical Application
The CB003 (400ml / 10ml/hr) is typically chosen for procedures where the peak pain is intense but expected to subside more quickly, or where the surgical site is broad, such as:
Large Abdominal Procedures: For surgeries like a ventral hernia repair where a larger volume of fluid is needed to cover the incision.
Thoracic Surgery: Used in paravertebral or intercostal blocks where a higher flow rate may improve the spread of the anesthetic.
Orthopedic Field Blocks: When a high-volume "soak" of a joint or muscle bed is required immediately following surgery.
