## Intended Use

The Relieva Sinus Balloon Inflation Device is recommended for use to inflate the balloon, monitor the pressure within the balloon and deflate the balloon while performing balloon dilation procedures of the sinus ostia and spaces within the paranasal sinus cavities for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.

## Device Story

Disposable inflation device with integrated manometer; used to inflate, monitor pressure, and deflate dilation balloons during sinus ostia/paranasal sinus procedures. Operated by clinicians in surgical settings. Provides pressure control to ensure safe balloon dilation; facilitates therapeutic access to sinus cavities.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Testing included pressure accuracy, pressure decay, and pressure integrity to ensure conformance to product specifications.

## Technological Characteristics

Disposable manual inflation device with integrated manometer. Measures pressures from vacuum to gauge capacity. Materials are biocompatible and previously cleared in other products. No software or electronic components.

## Regulatory Identification
