The RhinAer Stylus (FG1393) is indicated for ENT surgery to destroy soft tissue in the nasal airway, including posterior nasal nerve regions in patients with chronic rhinitis.
The FDA form marks the device for prescription use. The indication specifies the nasal-airway tissue target, procedure specialty and chronic-rhinitis population.
Listed Item
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.
Indicated Use
The FDA letter identifies the trade name RhinAer Stylus (FG1393), manufacturer Aerin Medical Inc. and product code GEI. The form marks the device for prescription use.

Recalls
1 of these is Class II. Class II means a temporary or reversible health consequence. Volume alone is not a quality signal: a manufacturer that ships more recalls more.
