Question:
What is the name of the pain management system involving catheters from the wound

Hiya all! When I had surgery, my surgeon inserted two thin tubes (catheters) into my incision, the catheters ran to two small balls/bulbs that were filled with pain medicine that was delivered directly to the incisional wound. It was awesome pain management and I want to be able to suggest it to a friend having shoulder reconstruction. I can't remember the name..I keep thinking C-Pack or something like that....I know that I truly wish I could have had it with my shoulder reconstruction. Can anyone help me out with the name??? please!! thanks a bunch (((hugs))) and smiles =)))    — DebPKansas (posted on July 21, 2003)

I know some people after joint replacement surgery mention a Marcaine Pack as a local anesthetic. Is this possibly what you are referring to?

Was it a CADD pump?
