Zimmer® Ambulatory Pump

Stop the pain. Not the entire body.

Introducing the Zimmer® Ambulatory Pump (ZAP), the efficient, economical and pain-free way to utilize post-operative analgesia. With ZAP, you treat the pain at its source rather than treating the entire body – allowing patients to get up, into rehabilitation and back to their regular routines more quickly. Easy to use for both medical staff and patients, ZAP is designed to provide a more even distribution of pain relief. 		ZAPP Product

The Future of Pain Management

Studies show that pain, not death, is the number one fear of patients facing surgery. The pain following orthopaedic surgery, including non-invasive procedures, is real. However, the pain is also localized at the surgical site. So why treat the entire body with systemic narcotics? The Zimmer Ambulatory Pump is designed to provide surgeons a better choice that gives patients effective pain management without the side effects of narcotics. It also gives physicians control of dosing with a multirate control module. ZAP is changing the way physicians across the country treat post-operative pain.
