Pain Pumps & Cartilage Damage (PAGCL)
For post-operative pain management, pain pumps are designed to deliver pain medicine directly into the surgical wound site in order to help manage a patient's pain. A recent study published by The American Journal of Sports Medicine identified Pain Pumps as the likely cause of a rare, life-threatening condition known as Postarthroscopic Glenohumeral Chondrolysis (PAGCL).
PAGCL is a condition in which the cartilage located within the shoulder joint begins to deteriorate. As the cartilage deteriorates due to the condition, the patient begins to experience the complications associated with the disorder.
