Description
The Avanos PMP-16-100C is a specialized medical instrument used in Radiofrequency (RF) Ablation procedures for chronic pain management. Unlike the ON-Q* pump kits, this is a hardware component for the Avanos RF Pain Management System, designed to deliver thermal energy to specific nerves to disrupt pain signals.
Key Features
Curved Tip Design: The "C" in the model number indicates a curved tip, which allows physicians to navigate more precisely around anatomical structures to target specific nerves.
Nitinol Construction: Made from a super-elastic nickel-titanium (Nitinol) alloy, providing superior flexibility and resistance to kinking during placement.
Reusable & Sterilizable: This specific model is a reusable probe designed to be steam-sterilized (autoclaved) for multiple procedures, offering long-term durability.
Standard Compatibility: Backward compatible with existing Avanos Medical Pain Management Generator models, such as the PMG-115 and PMG-115-TD.
Color-Coded Strain Relief: Features a white color-coded strain relief for quick identification of the 16-gauge size in a clinical setting.
Technical Specifications

Gauge: 16 GA.
Length: 100 mm.
Tip Shape: Curved.
Material: Nitinol Alloy.
Sterility: Provided non-sterile; intended to be steam-sterilized before use.

Primary Uses
Chronic Pain Management: Used in neurotomy procedures to treat chronic pain in the back, neck, and joints (including the knee and hip).
Nerve Ablation: Delivered through a matching cannula to create a heat lesion on a sensory nerve, providing relief for conditions like facet joint syndrome.
Precise Tissue Targeting: The 100 mm length and 16 GA thickness provide the structural integrity needed for deeper tissue targets or where a larger lesion is required.
