CIMPAX™ C-CAT Catheter

CIMPAX™ C-CAT Catheter

The CIMPAX continuous wound infusion catheters (CWI) form part of a multi-modal post-operative pain management approach with an over-arching goal of decreasing opioid use in a postoperative pain management context. This leads to early ambulation, improvement in pain scores,  a decrease in nausea and other side-effects related to narcotic use, potential for shortened hospital stay resulting in overall cost reduction.
