Description
he PMP-20-60C is an Avanos Reusable Curved Radiofrequency (RF) Probe. It is a specialized medical electrode used in thermal nerve ablation to treat chronic pain, typically in the spine or sacroiliac joints.
By combining a thicker 20-gauge shaft with a specialized 60 mm length, this probe offers higher stability and a larger lesion profile for intermediate-depth targets.
Technical Specifications
Model Number: PMP-20-60C
Probe Length: 60 mm (6.0 cm)
Gauge: 20 Gauge (White/Yellow color-coded hub)
Tip Shape: Curved (indicated by the "C")
Material: Stainless Steel
Provides a rigid, stable shaft that resists deflection when navigating dense ligaments or scar tissue.
Sterility: Non-Sterile
This is a reusable device designed to be cleaned and steam-sterilized (autoclaved) before each clinical use.
Compatibility: Fully compatible with all Avanos, Halyard, and Baylis RF generators (e.g., CRG-BASIC, CRG-ADVANCED, PMG-115).
Key Features
Thermal Monitoring: Features an integrated Thermocouple (TC) sensor at the distal tip. This provides real-time temperature and impedance feedback to the generator, ensuring the lesion is maintained at the target therapeutic temperature (typically 80°C).
Steerability: The curved tip allows the clinician to navigate around bony obstacles and position the active portion of the probe parallel to the target nerve for maximum ablation efficiency.
Enhanced Stability: The 20-gauge diameter is thicker than the standard 22-gauge probes, reducing "wandering" during insertion and potentially creating a broader thermal lesion.
Visual Alignment: The hub is color-coded to match corresponding 20G, 60 mm cannulae, ensuring a perfect fit and preventing depth-measurement errors during the procedure.
