Description
The PM030 is an ON-Q Pain Relief System with a Standard Soaker Catheter** manufactured by Avanos Medical. This configuration features a large 270 ml reservoir and the longest available single-catheter infusion segment at 10 inches.
Unlike the "-A" models, this version uses the Standard Soaker* catheter, which provides uniform medication delivery through hollow-fiber technology but does not include the antimicrobial silver coating.
Key Features
10-Inch Infusion Segment: This model is designed specifically for very large surgical incisions (e.g., extensive abdominal surgeries like "tummy tucks" or long spinal/orthopedic incisions). The 10-inch (25.4 cm) "soaker" zone ensures broad coverage across the entire wound.
Standard Soaker Technology:* The catheter utilizes a porous membrane to diffuse local anesthetic evenly. This prevents the "pooling" effect often seen with traditional catheters that only have side-drilled holes.
Large 270 ml Reservoir: The elastomeric pump provides a high volume of medication, supporting several days of continuous pain relief in a portable, battery-free device.
Non-Narcotic Relief: By delivering targeted anesthesia directly to the surgical site, it significantly reduces the patient’s need for systemic opioids, helping to minimize side effects like nausea and respiratory depression.
Fixed Flow Rate: Factory-set at 2 ml/hr to ensure a steady, regulated delivery of medication throughout the recovery period.
