POC: Patti Santamaria The North Atlantic Regional Contracting Office intends to award sole source to Boston Scientific Corporation. We have a RFA Machine that can only take these specific needles. This RFA Machine is a radio frequency machine its purpose is to shrink tumors by using high frequency and the Leveen needles are the only needles that plug into this machine and is the key t o the success of this particular patients surgery. The LeVeen CoAccess Electrode System is designed to deliver a consistent pattern of heat throughout the lesion. An electrode algorithm compensates for tissue variability and has been developed to facilitate complete, homogeneous thermal lesion creation. The LeVeen CoAccess Electrode System, used with the RF3000 Generator, is designed to create consistent thermal lesions for more predictable outcomes. This item is a sharp, polished array tips faciltate tissue penetration. It is an umbrella-shaped array design promotes stable, accurate deployment. 1cm tine spacing is designed to help create a complete, predictable, spherical thermal lesion. Continuous impedance feedback facilitates accurate assessment of complete thermal lesion dimensions. 1cm shaft makers and echogenic tip help to guide insertion and a choice of length facilitates lesions access. These items are an urgent request and required for r emoval of tumors. The LeVeen Needles has shown good results with a similar cases here at Walter Reed Hospital.
