On-Q Pain Pump
Dr. Egrari has been using this pioneering procedure for
patients who desire a more comfortable post-operative
period.
Briefly, On-Q pain pump is a device that is attached
to two small catheters. These are placed in the abdominal
wall and provide a route for continuous infusion of local
anesthesia. This in turn numbs the most uncomfortable
areas of the abdomen for the first three days.
The pump is worn in a small pack and carried around with
the patient during this time. The pump and its attached
catheter are removed from the patient in 3 days.
