Continuous Pain Relief During Surgery
We’re pleased to offer patients the newest “Gold Standard” of pain relief – ON-Q® PainBuster®.
Placed by a MISA surgeon, ON-Q PainBuster is a minimally invasive device that delivers narcotic-free pain medication directly into the surgical incision and offers continuous pain relief in the important first days after surgery.
ON-Q is a small high-tech balloon that holds a pain-numbing medication, delivering anesthetic through a tiny specially designed tube… directly into the surgical incision site. Similar to a dentist injecting novocaine for a numbing effect, ON-Q directs the medication only into the area where you have pain, while the rest of your body stays in a normal, comfortable state. ON-Q delivers pain relief continuously and slowly for up to five days after surgery… so it’s right on cue when you need it.
This new avenue for remarkable pain relief:
- starts working right after surgery
- puts pain relief right where you need it
- helps lead to faster recovery
- reduces narcotic complications, such as breathing problems, grogginess or nausea
If you have any questions or concerns related to pain relief or surgical procedures, please discuss it at the time of your consultation… or call us at 1-800-706-MISA for more information.
