Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 100 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients undergoing a scheduled elective solid organ biopsy procedures on the liver or kidneys.
  2. Patients have signed an informed consent
  3. Patients who are โ‰ฅ 18 years of age.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients with known bleeding disorder
  2. Significant congenital anomaly or medical problem that in the opinion of the investigator would preclude enrollment in this study.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Absence of Hematoma Formation
Patients will be contacted on day 14 post-procedure and asked a series of questions regarding Adverse Events related to the procedure.
Measure and Categorize Amount of Blood Loss From Biopsy Access Site
The weight of 10 gauze pads is taken prior to the procedure. Post-procedure, those same 10 gauze pads used at biopsy access site are weighed again to measure in grams, the amount of blood loss. The scale ranges from 1 (unacceptable) to 5 (excellent).
Absence of the Need for Ultrasound Examination Due to Observation of Bleeding
Measuring the amount of patient who did not need an ultrasound examination due to observation of bleeding

Secondary Outcome Measures

Absence of Secondary Reintervention
Patients will be contacted on day 14 post-procedure and asked a series of questions regarding Adverse Events related to the procedure. Measuing the amount of patients who did not require secondary reintervention.
Time to Hospital Discharge

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The primary objective for this study is to assess safety and performance of the Kronos Electrocautery Device for electrocautery procedures following coaxial biopsy procedures on areas that include, but are not limited to, liver, kidney, lungs, breasts, soft tissue, etc.
Detailed Description
The Kronos Electrocautery Device is intended to be used in electrocautery procedures to control bleeding by use of electrical current to heat the device probe tip that is applied directly to the target tissue area of treatment. Prospective, multi-center, single-arm study with consecutive, eligible subject enrollment at each site. Patients who require a coaxial biopsy procedures on areas that include, but are not limited to, liver, kidney, lungs, breasts, soft tissue, etc., will be eligible to participate in this study.

Interventional Study Model
Single Group Assignment
Model Description
The Kronos Electrocautery Device is a disposable electrocautery device that can cauterize deep tissue through a standard biopsy procedure guide needle. This device is intended to coagulate the tissue surrounding the core biopsy channel during withdrawal to reduce or eliminate significant post-procedural bleeding. Currently, the Kronos Electrocautery Device consists of one (1) size. As such, the existing Kronos Electrocautery Device is chosen as the worst-case condition.
