Post-Operative Pain Control

An Epidural Kit is a sterile, single-use convenience tray containing all components required for placement of an epidural catheter for regional anesthesia and analgesia. The kit includes a Tuohy-tip epidural needle, a flexible kink-resistant radiopaque catheter, loss-of-resistance syringe, and sterile drapes, preparing the procedural site for aseptic technique. Used in operating rooms, labor and delivery suites, and pain management settings, the epidural kit enables continuous administration of local anesthetics and opioids for surgical anesthesia, labor analgesia, and post-operative pain control. The loss-of-resistance technique provides tactile confirmation of correct catheter placement. Strict aseptic technique and continuous patient monitoring are essential to prevent complications including post-dural puncture headache, infection, and local anesthetic systemic toxicity.
