Arrow® StimuCath® Stimulating cPNB Catheter

The Arrow® StimuCath® Continuous Peripheral Nerve Block Catheter allows clinicians to objectively confirm accurate catheter tip placement through nerve stimulation, which can help improve secondary block success. The wire-reinforced catheter body and coil tip are visible under ultrasound, providing additional feedback on the catheter location to the clinician. Stimulating catheters have been shown to improve clinical outcomes;1 significantly decrease pain scores;2,3,4 and reduce rescue medication consumption,3,5,6 compared to non-stimulating catheters. The StimuCath® Continuous Peripheral Nerve Block Catheter has been clinically proven to be safe and effective for post-operative pain management.1,2,7,8,9
