Acclarent launches Relieva Scout multi-sinus dilator

Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) subsidiary Acclarent said Wednesday it is launching the Relieva Scout multi-sinus dilation system in the U.S. The Relieva Scout is designed to use balloon sinuplasty technology to confirm and dilate sinus openings in individuals with chronic sinusitis through a minimally-invasive procedure. “I’m always looking for new technologies that enable me to better address the needs of those suffering from chronic sinusitis. The Relieva Scout Multi-Sinus Dilation System brings together the benefits of tactile feedback and greater reach in an easy-to-use, precise device, which helps me safely and effectively treat my patients,” Advent Sinus & Allergy Center’s Dr. Madan Kandula  said in a press release. The Relieva Scout is designed with a flexible balloon to allow for access to the sphenoid, frontal and maxillary sinuses, Acclarent said. “Acclarent’s new system includes the precision of flexible over-the-wire technology, with the versatility of a rail which can be shaped, creating a device that efficiently accesses and dilates multiple sinuses,” Acclarent medical director Dr. William Kane said in a press release.
