Injections are a non-surgical treatment option, similar to nerve blocks (e.g. steroid injections, anaesthetic injections, Botox injections). They are commonly used to treat chronic pain after other non-surgical measures, such as medication and/or physical therapy, have been tried without success. Before considering surgery, injections are used to relieve pain and help determine the source of the patient’s pain.
Today, ultrasound-guided injections for chronic pain and musculoskeletal injuries are increasingly used by healthcare professionals because they offer a number of advantages:
The needle’s requirement is therefore clearly defined – it must be visible under ultrasound. Thanks to Cornerstone reflectors, a technology invented by Pajunk® and created in collaboration with Dr Chris Mitchell, Pajunk® needles are visible under ultrasound, whatever the entry angle.
With the SonoMSK range of echogenic needles, which are specially designed for ultrasound-guided infiltrations, we offer the ideal tool for reducing needle entry pain and providing visual ultrasound monitoring of your procedure.
The echogenic properties of SonoMSK allow the needle’s progress to be monitored, minimising the risk of intravascular injection while improving results for the patient*.
The SonoMSK’s sharp tip meets the specific requirements of musculoskeletal injections or for chronic pain, and reduces the pain of needle entry.
