 Pain Management With the on Q Pain Pump


The On Q Pain Pump offers patients anew way to self-medicate post-surgery - rather than taking pills to control the pain, the On Q Pain Pump offers patients a way to treat pain only at the site of the surgery, avoiding grogginess and other side effects of pain pills. Formally known as the On Q PainBuster Post-Op Pain Relief System, this new system provides pain medication specifically to the part of the body affected by surgery, supplying pain relief to the user for anywhere from 12 hours to five days.


The system works through a catheter that is inserted into the patient near the surgical sight and is attached to a balloon pump that imparts the medication. The flow of medication is set by a doctor and is dispensed at a very slow rate regardless of whether the medication will be administered for only 12 hours or longer. Once the balloon has become flat and a hard tube is visible in the center, it means the system is empty. The patient will return to the doctor to have the catheter removed at this time.


The On Q Pain Pump is an excellent option for patients because it is portable and very easy to conceal - it can be attached to the patients' clothing or placed in a pouch to be carried around. Another great feature of this system is that the chance of breakthrough pain is decreased because the medication is being administered directly at the surgical site. Also, the catheter used with this system is specific to this method of dispensing medication; called the On Q Soaker Catheter, it has multiple holes through which the medication is dispensed, allowing it to be administered across a larger area.


If you are scheduled to have surgery performed on you, call your doctor today to find out if the On Q Pain Pump will be a good option for you. Learn for yourself how simple and efficient this system can be.
