Innovative treatment for facet joint syndrome

The J@blation system is exclusively designed as a system to treat facet joints.

1. Place the patient in a prone position, drape and prepare the treatment site(s) following standard techniques.
2. Determine desired treatment location via fluoroscopy, and mark skin.
3. Make a 10 – 15mm incision in a location that takes into account the angle of approach required to reach the targeted facet joint.
4. Using fluoroscopic guidance, advance the K-wire into the incision until it reaches the facet joint. Tap the wire gently into the bone using a small hammer. Confirm via fluoroscopy the correct position of the K-wire.
5. Insert the Dilator over the K-wire and confirm via fluoroscopy the correct position of K-wire and Dilator.
6. Insert the Working Sleeve over the Dilator / K-wire
7. Remove the Dilator / K-wire and insert the Endoscope in the Working Channel to get an overview on the capsular / joint
8. Remove the Endoscope and insert the drill to shave the capsular / joint
9. Remove the drill and insert the Endoscope and RF Probe and coagulate the capsular
10. Remove all instruments and close the incision using standard techniques.
11. Move to the next treatment location and repeat steps 1 – 10.
