OptaBlate Radiofrequency (RF) Generator System

The intended use of the OptaBlate Radiofrequency (RF) Generator System is as follows:
• Palliative treatment in spinal procedures by ablation of metastatic malignant lesions in a vertebral body.
• Coagulation and ablation of tissue in bone during surgical procedures including palliation of pain associated with metastatic lesions involving bone in patients who have failed or are not candidates for standards therapy.
• Ablation of benign bone tumors such as osteoid osteoma.

The device description of the OptaBlate Radiofrequency (RF) Generator System remains consistent with that of the previously cleared K221074, with no modifications other than the incorporation of the OptaBlate Curve 10mm, 15mm, and 20mm Probe Single Kits.

The OptaBlate Curve Probe Kits provide flexible probes with microinfusers that are used with OmniCurve 10G Fracture Kits, the OptaBlate RF Generator and the Splitter Cable. Together they enable a unipedicular approach for bone tumor ablation. The access tools from the OmniCurve Kits create a curved, unipedicular pathway to the bone tumor. Based on tumor size, a flexible probe size is selected and inserted into the curved pathway. Then with the microinfuser (which reduces impedance events), the OptaBlate RF Generator and the Splitter Cable, the bone tumor is ablated.
