Range of Application
Performing the technique of wound infiltration via the ON-Q® PainBuster® system, a steady spread of a local anesthetic throughout the wound over a long period of time can be guaranteed. Long-term wound infiltration reduces side effects that would occur when using narcotics for post operative pain management. Thus a quicker return to normal, a fast resumption of the body functions and the full range of motions can be achieved in a fast and less straining way.
