Storage
• Storage of a filled ON-Q* Pump for more than 8 hours
prior to starting infusion may result in a slower
flow rate.
External pressure
• External pressure such as squeezing or laying on pump
increases flow rate.
INDICATIONS FOR USE
• ON-Q* Pump is intended to provide continuous delivery
of medication (such as local anesthetics) to or around
surgical wound sites and/or close proximity to nerves
for preoperative, perioperative and postoperative
regional anesthesia and/or pain management. Routes
of administration include: intraoperative site, perineural,
percutaneous and epidural.
• ON-Q* Pump is indicated to significantly decrease pain
and narcotic use when used to deliver local anesthetics
to or around surgical wound sites, or close proximity
to nerves, when compared to narcotic only pain
management.
