EpiLong VPC
Visual Pressure Control Device for Identification of the Epidural Space
The new “Visual Pressure Control” (VPC) by Pajunk developed in collaboration with Prof. Dr. med. Dietmar Enk and Dr. med. Günter Michaelis, offers a visual indication of the Loss of Resistance during epidural procedures. The VPC is a reliable alternative to the conventional Loss of Resistance technique, by visually indicating even the smallest pressure change. As a result, a more objective needle tip placement and increased patient safety are allowed.
EpiLong VPC Overview
EpiLong VPC: How it works
The VPC follows the principle of Boyle’s Law that states that the product of pressure and volume are constant. The VPC has a special plunger that comes with a built in capillary and integrated magnifier. Pressure builds up a column in this capillary, which is visible in the magnifier.

- Even the smallest pressure differences are recognisable
- Fully independent from the tactile assessment
- Allows for two handed needle placement
- Minimal amounts of saline injected into epidural space
