Cosman Medical Introduces G4 Four-Output RF Generator for Pain Management

Cosman Medical -- United States of America (Press Release) October 30, 2008 -- (Burlington, Mass., USA) Cosman Medical announces the addition of the G4 Radiofrequency Generator to its existing line of products for the interventional treatment of chronic back pain. The Cosman G4 generator provides automatic temperature control for up to four radiofrequency (RF) electrodes at the same time. Its large touch screen interface allows doctors to preset treatment settings specialized to RF targets throughout the spine. Data export and printing functions automate electronic record keeping, thus saving time for the busy clinician.

"In a modern RF generator, new features should not make the unit difficult to understand. Pain doctors need a device that can support a wide and growing array of RF treatment methods, with an interface that is simple, fast, and that does not require extensive training," said Eric Cosman Jr., Ph.D., chief designer of the G4 generator. “The automated control of four RF electrodes significantly reduces the treatment time, improving patient care and reducing costs for a pain clinic.”

"We understand that medical practitioners need to consider cost effectiveness as well as medical efficacy in selecting surgical equipment. Cosman Medical addresses all these concerns by designing and manufacturing the G4 in house, rather than outsourcing this function to less experienced vendors at high cost. That way, we can guarantee high product quality and pass along the cost savings to our customers," said Michael Arnold, Ph.D., Director of Sales for Cosman Medical.

Cosman Medical is a family-owned business that represents over 50 years of pioneering experience in RF technology for pain management and neurosurgery. Cosman Medical is an ISO 13485 certified company dedicated to customer support and the production of innovative medical equipment for the worldwide community. The academic research efforts of Eric Cosman Sr., Ph.D. (Professor Emeritus, MIT Physics Department) and Eric Cosman Jr. are at the forefront of RF pain neuroscience.
