Cryoanalgesia for Pain Management Professionals and Orthopedists

Cryoanalgesia has been used continuously in specialty pain management clinics for decades. It is an accepted and successful method for treating post-operative pain and a wide range of actue and chronic pain syndromes. Cryoanalgesia is particularly well suited for providing prolonged pain relief where other treatment modalities have been ineffective or in cases where surgery and implants are unacceptable. The following sample of published indications establishes the broad range of use for cryoanalgesia in orthopedic and pain management medicine:

  • Post-operative Pain
  • Cancer Pain
  • Posttraumatic Neuralgia
  • Intercostal Neuralgia
  • Neuromas
  • Iliac Crest Bone Grafts
  • Lumbar Pain
  • Trigeminal Neuralgia
  • Interspinous Ligaments
  • Coccydynia
  • Perineal Neuropathies
  • Ilioinguinal, Iliohypogastric, Genitofemoral Neuralgias
  • Trigger Points
  • Painful Superficial Scars
  • Phantom Limb
  • Obturator Nerve
  • Cervicogenic Headache

Cryoanalgesia is often performed as an outpatient treatment, patients often remain ambulatory and the post-operative recovery is minimal. It is highly acceptable to patients, it has a low rate of complication and it is an effective low cost solution for pain management.

CryoTech offers products with Advance automated and digital technology that brings ease of operation to the practice of modern cryoanalgesia. The development of the digitally controlled and automatic cryoanalgesic devices offered by CryoTech is the key to allowing the clinician to focus on the cryosurgical procedure and the patient. The physician no longer needs to be concerned with manual controls and adjustments to regulate pressure and gas flow to the cryoprobe. Our CryoStar, CryoPac Advance and CryoPac Ultra systems provide automatic gas regulation, purge and cleaning functions as well as a digitally controlled neuro-stimulation function.
