Our Story
Relievant Medsystems is a privately held medical device company with headquarters in Sunnyvale, California. Based on two decades of scientific research, we developed the Intracept Procedure — a minimally invasive procedure that targets the basivertebral nerve for the relief of chronic low back pain.
After a successful Pilot Study,1 we sponsored the SMART Trial — the medical device industry’s first successful Level 1, randomized sham-controlled trial for chronic low back pain.
Based on the results of the SMART Trial, Relievant received FDA 510(k) Clearance for the Intracept System. More recently, Relievant received FDA 510(k) Clearance for the second generation Access Instruments and Radiofrequency Generator.
Relievant is now sponsoring the INTRACEPT Study — a Level 1, prospective, randomized clinical study comparing the Intracept Procedure to conservative care for patients with chronic low back pain. The INTRACEPT Study was initiated in September 2017.
