Teleflex Medical now offers the first stimulating continuous nerve block catheter, the Arrow StimuCath, which confirms positive placement of the catheter next to the nerve. StimuCath technology can reduce the risk of secondary block failure while improving pain management for the patient. StimuCath is also highly echogenic, which provides enhanced visualization with ultrasound insertion placement procedures. The Arrow StimuQuik improves the accuracy of single-shot peripheral anaesthesia delivery by enhancing control and maneuverability during needle positioning.

A two-fold benefit can be achieved with our Rüsch EpiStar when puncturing the epidural space: reduction of puncture trauma and, at the same time, higher flow-rates, extending your pain management possibilities. This can be obtained because the needle has a 18 Ga. small outer diameter, while the EpiStar catheter has an interior lumen like that of a standard 16 Ga. catheter. The Rüsch EpiStar CSE is the ideal way of combining spinal and epidural anaesthesia. Catheter and spinal needle are introduced at the same time into the patented EpiStar CSE Tuohy needle. Arrow's clinician-inspired FlexTip Plus is designed to reduce complications in the epidural space. It provides excellent kink resistance, catheter radiopacity and tensile strength with a soft flexible tip to reduce the risk of paraesthesia and inadvertent penetration of blood vessels.

We can offer different tip designs of our Rüsch SpinoStar for spinal anaesthesia, which is the most frequently used procedure in vicinity of the spinal cord. Greater safety is provided by the SpinoStar BallPen needle which only penetrates as deep as absolutely necessary, indicating by a clearly noticeable “click” the needle’s correct position. The proven spinal needles SpinoStar Pencil Point OPTI and SpinoStar Standard complete the range.

An elegant solution for both nerve mapping and location without any need to change cables is provided by using our Stimpod NMS400 Stimulator from Xavant Technology. Determine the optimal proximity range to inject your local anaesthetic and reduce multiple needle insertions which will discomfort the patient, as it allows to use the needle and probe together.

The ambIT Ambulatory Pain Control Systems from Sorensen Medical provide the most flexible, accurate and safe therapy-specific configurations and the lowest cost-in-use infusion pumps and accessories for the management of post-operative pain.
