Patient Safety - a topic that has a high priority in healthcare. There are a number of factors involved in the health of a patient and patient safety should be the focus everywhere. This ranges from the doctor’s office, over large hospitals, to companies in the med tech and pharma industries. Everyone involved has the task of putting patient safety at the centre of attention in order to ensure the best possible patient care and treatment.
The safety of patients and users is our top priority. Whether it’s our current product range or new technologies we are working on, we keep an intensive exchange with experts. Especially this exchange is extremely important for our product developments.

The last months of our Reliable Partner campaign have shown you everything that falls under the topic of safety for Pajunk. On the one hand, there are our products and technology developments that lead to better ultrasound visibility or to the prevention of nerve damage. On the other hand, we contribute to increased patient safety with clear labelling on our catheters and packaging. Because - When every minute counts, every move has to be right.

We are also making our contribution in the area of the opioid crisis. Pajunk plays an important role in addressing the opioid crisis by offering an alternative treatment for both pain types that are entirely devoid of opioids. In the area of acute pain, Pajunk is offering the widest range of stimulating and echogenic products for single shot and continuous nerve block procedures. In addition to acute pain solution, Pajunk has been developing products in the field of chronic pain.

NerveProtect³ - The Triple Guidance Safety Concept
NerveProtect³ is the combined use of ultrasound, nerve stimulation and injection pressure limitation. And this is exactly where Pajunk has developed successful technologies and products for.
1. Ultrasound: thanks to Cornerstone technology, our SonoPlex® is the best ultrasound-visible needle on the market.
2. Nerve stimulation: NanoLine coating contributes to precise stimulation.
3. Injection pressure limitation: NerveGuard reduces the chance of nerve damage and compression of blood vessels.

NRFit® – In order to avoid risk of incorrect connections and injections, the DIN ISO 80369 series of standards was issued in 2016. It replaces the overarching LUER standard and defines a separate, incompatible connection for each of the newly defined five application areas. As a leading manufacturer in Regional Anesthesia, Pajunk is offering its entire product portfolio with the new connection standard. We are proud about our successful NRFit conversion of 500+ (and counting) facilities globally.
Many factors are important for patient safety. This will also continue to be Pajunk's focus.
From quality to innovation.
