Description
The Avanos PMP-20-145 (formerly Halyard/Kimberly-Clark) is a Reusable Straight Radiofrequency (RF) Probe. It is a precision-engineered electrode designed for deep-access interventional pain management, delivering thermal or pulsed RF energy to target nerves.
The model number specifies its dimensions: 20 Gauge thickness and 145 mm length with a Straight tip.
Key Features
Extended Reach (145 mm): This probe is specialized for "long-reach" procedures. At 14.5 cm, it is designed for patients with a larger body habitus or for reaching deep anatomical targets where a standard 100 mm probe is insufficient.
Balanced 20-Gauge Profile: The 20G diameter (color-coded Yellow) is the clinical standard for RF ablation. It provides a perfect balance between a slim profile for patient comfort and enough structural stiffness for accurate placement in deep tissue.
Nitinol Construction: Made from super-elastic Nitinol alloy. This high-memory material allows the probe to be inserted into cannulae repeatedly without kinking or losing its structural integrity.
Integrated Thermocouple: Contains a temperature sensor at the distal tip. This provides constant, real-time feedback to the RF generator, allowing the clinician to monitor and maintain a precise lesion temperature (typically 80°C) for safety and efficacy.
Reusable & Sterilizable: This is a non-sterile, multi-use device. It is designed to be steam-sterilized (autoclaved) between procedures, making it a cost-effective choice for busy pain management clinics.
Technical Specifications
Model Number: PMP-20-145
Probe Gauge: 20 G
Probe Length: 145 mm (14.5 cm)
Tip Shape: Straight
Sterility: Non-Sterile (Reusable; requires autoclaving)
Color Code: Yellow (20 Gauge)
Compatibility: Designed for use with any 20G, 145 mm Avanos RF Cannula.
Primary Uses
Deep Lumbar Medial Branch Neurotomy: Used to treat chronic lower back pain in larger patients where the target nerves are located deep within the spinal musculature.
Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Ablation: The extended length is ideal for reaching the lateral branches of the sacral nerves at depths exceeding 10 cm.
Sympathetic Nerve Blocks: Employed for deep-seated targets such as the splanchnic nerves or the lumbar sympathetic chain.
Diagnostic Stimulation: Allows for sensory and motor testing at deep anatomical sites to confirm the probe is correctly positioned before creating a thermal lesion.
