Peer-reviewed studies, technical validations, and case reports on the NIMBUS Multitined Expandable Electrode across anatomies.
Ideal lesion characteristics, device description, & lesion size of NIMBUS MEE
Clinical advantages v. conventional technique, reducing procedure time by 50%
Comparison of Lesion Volumes & Shapes Produced with Cooled, Protruding, & Standard RFA
Characterizes the size & shape of the NIMBUS MEE lesion as 467 mm3
Perpendicular placement of NIMBUS MEE for lumbar MRI validated to be 601 mm3
Bench science & post-procedure MRI validation of size & shape of strip lesion for SIJ RFA
Case report with MRI validating the size & shape of strip lesion for SIJ neurotomy
12 month outcomes in 182 patients utilizing NIMBUS MEE for SIJ RFA
SIJ innervation from S1–S3 LBs varies and benefits from a large-volume lesion
Coaxial (94 p.) to Multifidus Sparing (401 p.) Lumbar RFA with >56% of patients reporting positive outcome at 1 year
Significant pain reduction sustained up to 9 months with ultrasound-guided RFA using NIMBUS MEE
Advancements in RF technology, including NIMBUS Multitined Expandable Electrode
Consensus Practice Guidelines on Interventions for Lumbar Facet Joint Pain from a Multispecialty, International Working Group
Supports either multiple lesions or large volume lesion
Statistically significant decrease in pain intensity were observed at up to 24 months
Parallel Placement is Technically Challenging - L4 was 31.04º ± 1.83º & L5 was 40.74º ± 1.86º
Muscle-Bone Interface in Ex-Vivo Model Comparison
Advanced Interventional Procedures for Knee Osteoarthritis
Image-guided technique for targeting the infrapatellar branch of the saphenous nerve
Review of Sacral anatomy, diagnosis, & RFA techniques
At a mean follow-up of 9.0 ± 1.5 months, 50.0% reported ≥50% NRS reduction and 56.3% reported PGIC scores ≥6
≥50% NPRS reduction reported by 55.6% of participants at a mean follow-up of 13.1 months
Larger lesions increase the likelihood of capturing the targeted structure
