Halyard Health, Inc. announced the availability of the EZstim III peripheral nerve locator and stimulator. The EZstim III was developed to help clinicians monitor the effects of muscle relaxant drugs during general anesthesia and enhance the effectiveness of catheter placement during continuous peripheral nerve blocks (CPNBs) for acute pain. The use of CPNBs can help to improve patient care by mitigating the need for opioids in post-operative pain management. The EZstim III peripheral nerve locator and stimulator is a hand-held device that can take the place of two devices, serving as either a full-function nerve locator or a neuromuscular block monitor. EZstim III includes an audible indicator of open circuit or high-resistance condition, detachable, function-specific lead sets to guard against inappropriate use, and a built-in bumper to protect it from breakage. The large, bright LCD screen is easy to read and continuously displays all instrument settings and battery life. EZstim III is electrosurgery compatible, allowing it to be operational near other surgical equipment. The EZstim III is part of the ON-Q Pain Relief System suite of products – which includes pain pumps, pump accessories, peripheral nerve block accessories, as well as a comprehensive training, education and support system. The ON-Q pump is designed to provide effective, non-opioid pain relief for patients. With some non-narcotic pain pumps, patients experience increased pain satisfaction and a decrease in pain scores.
