Post-Operative Pain Management Systems
Tunneling System
Post-Operative Catheter Placement Devices
Expand catheter placement options for greater functionality, steerability, and versatility. The Moog Tunneling System facilitates placement of standard and saturation catheters for more effective post-operative pain management.
Post-operative pain management programs significantly reduce patient discomfort, decrease the length of stay, improve patient satisfaction, and lower overall narcotic usage levels1.
Functionality: Designed by tunneler experts and manufactured to the high standards of precision surgical instruments.
- Brushed stainless steel handle is notched for steady grip.
- Rounded blunt tip to prevent soft tissue trauma.
- PTFE sheath glides through tissue smoothly, then separates cleanly from the hub to the distal tip.
- Engraved with gauge and length for rapid identification.
Steerability: Malleable yet durable, tunnelers are designed to be shaped and reshaped by the clinician to provide the support and steerability needed to achieve accurate catheter placement case after case.
Versatility: Choice of commonly used sizes, Moog’s Tunneling System includes all necessary components to expand pain management catheter placement options.
Education: Guides available with both incisional and tunneler placement instructions to assist in catheter placement.
