Relievant Medsystems

Minneapolis, MN Healthcare Acquired

Relievant Medsystems is a commercial-stage medical device company that developed and commercialized the Intracept Intraosseous Nerve Ablation System, the only FDA-cleared treatment for chronic vertebrogenic low back pain. The minimally invasive, implant-free outpatient procedure uses targeted radiofrequency energy to ablate the basivertebral nerve, stopping it from transmitting pain signals to the brain. Relievant was acquired by Boston Scientific in November 2023 and operates as part of its neuromodulation business.
