Description

The RhinAer Stylus is a disposable handheld device capable of delivering bipolar radiofrequency energy to tissue. The RhinAer Stylus consists of a handle, shaft and treatment tip. An array of bipolar electrodes is positioned on a non-conductive tip which is attached to a handle via a non-conductive shaft. A temperature sensor is located on the tip to monitor tissue temperature. The Stylus is attached to a temperature-controlled radiofrequency generator via a flexible cable. The RhinAer Stylus treats symptoms of chronic rhinitis by modifying the tissues of the nasal airway through the use of low doses of radiofrequency energy to destroy tissue in the posterior nasal nerve regions. The low-power radiofrequency energy generates heat within the submucosal tissue, destroying local tissue, mucous cells, and glands, and creating a coagulation lesion. This destruction of tissue in posterior nasal nerve regions improves symptoms of chronic rhinitis. The RhinAer Stylus tip is temporarily inserted into the nose to access the treatment area. The procedure requires local anesthesia only.
