Device, Thermal Ablation, Endometrial
The Endometrial Thermal Ablation Device uses thermal energy, delivered via heated fluid, a balloon, or other thermal applicator, to destroy the endometrial lining of the uterus as a minimally invasive treatment for heavy menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia) in patients who have not responded to medical therapy and do not wish to preserve fertility. As a Class 3 device, it requires Premarket Approval (PMA) due to the risks of thermal injury to adjacent pelvic structures and the irreversible nature of the procedure. No regulation number or medical specialty code is recorded, and it carries no implant or life-sustaining flags.
