Targeted
Catheters are placed using nerve-stimulation guidance during the procedure, so the anaesthetic is delivered exactly where the pain is generated.
Targeted non-opioidpain relief,
Designed to improve recovery after haemorrhoid surgery.

RrhoidCath Pump awaiting approval in ARTG
Purpose built,
precisely engineered.
RrhoidCath™ delivers a regional, programmable infusion of local anaesthetic directly to the pudendal nerves after haemorrhoid surgery.
Continuous
An infusion pump delivers local anaesthetic to the surgical site through fine catheters around the clock. Within physician-set limits, the patient can deliver an additional bolus to manage pain-causing movements.
Convenient
An over-the-shoulder bag carries the pump, with extension lines to enable comfortable sleep and showering.
Because pain is controlled at its source, recovery leans far less on systemic opioids.
