Description
The Avanos MCK3-17-100-4 is a COOLIEF Multi-Cooled Radiofrequency (RF) Kit*. This specific configuration is an "advanced" kit designed to perform cooled radiofrequency ablation on three nerves simultaneously using longer probes for deeper anatomical targets.
The "Multi-Cooled" design is a significant efficiency upgrade for physicians, as it allows them to treat complex areas (like the hip or lumbar spine) in a single cycle rather than performing multiple individual ablations.
Technical Specifications
The part number MCK3-17-100-4 identifies the following technical parameters:
3-Probe Kit (MCK3): Designed for simultaneous 3-channel treatment.
17-Gauge (17): The diameter of the probes and introducers.
100 mm Length (100): A mid-to-long shaft length suitable for reaching deeper nerves in the lumbar spine, hip, or sacroiliac joint.
4 mm Active Tip (4): The length of the energized tip that creates the lesion.
Kit Contents
This is a comprehensive, sterile, single-use kit containing:
3 COOLIEF Cooled RF Probes:* Internally water-cooled electrodes that deliver the RF energy.
6 Fluid Delivery Introducers (FDI): Specialized cannulas with integrated side-ports. These allow the physician to inject anesthesia or saline without having to remove the probe, maintaining exact placement.
Cooled RF Sterile Tube Kits: Connects to the pump to circulate sterile water through the probes to manage tip temperature.
Primary Uses
Because of its 100 mm length, this kit is most commonly used for:
Lumbar Medial Branch Neurotomy: Treating chronic lower back pain originating from the facet joints.
Hip Osteoarthritis: Targeting the sensory nerves (obturator and femoral) that transmit pain from the hip joint.
Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Pain: Creating a series of large, overlapping lesions to block the variable nerve branches in the SI joint.
Key Features & Benefits
Large Spherical Lesions: By cooling the probe tip with water, the system can deliver higher energy without charring the tissue. This creates a spherical lesion that is up to 3.7 times larger than standard RF, significantly increasing the "capture rate" of target nerves.
Reduced Procedure Time: Treating three nerves at once (e.g., three levels of the spine) reduces the time the patient spends under sedation or on the procedure table.
FDI Technology: The "Fluid Delivery Introducer" allows for the "instillation" of fluids (like numbing agents) while the probe remains in place, which reduces the risk of probe migration and improves procedural accuracy.
Proven Durability: Clinical studies for the COOLIEF* system have shown pain relief lasting up to 12 to 24 months.
