The COBRA Surgical System

All COBRA products feature Estech’s patented temperature controlled radio-frequency (RF) technology. Temperature control provides a meaningful endpoint, maintaining tissue at safe yet effective temperatures to produce the desired lesion set. Internal probe cooling and advanced suction help to ensure reproducible transmural (full-thickness) endocardial or epicardial lesions. Versatile design enables the surgeon to use COBRA for minimally invasive or traditional procedures for either standalone or concomitant with valve or CABG surgery.

COBRA Cooled™ Surgical Probe

A malleable epicardial or endocardial probe that utilizes five electrodes to create uniform, reproducible linear lesions.
No dragging is required, ensuring a consistent transmural lesion with no gaps.
The COBRA Cooled™ uses advanced internal cooling technology to deliver more energy and overcome the heat sink affect while preventing the formation of coagulum at the tissue surface.
The insulated tip allows the probe to create a full thickness isthmus lesion while not damaging the mitral annulus.


Disclaimer
In the U.S., the Estech COBRA RF ablation products have been cleared for ablation of either cardiac or soft tissues. The AFfirm Pacing Probe has been cleared to be used upon completion of the cardiac ablation procedure to assess the adequacy of cardiac lesions created in surgically treating the patient’s arrhythmia. Estech does not promote off-label use of its products and their use is at the discretion of the cardiac surgeon. Estech is undertaking an IDE clinical trial and subsequent PMA submission to obtain a specific atrial fibrillation indication. In Europe, the Estech COBRA RF ablation products are CE marked with an indication for the treatment of atrial fibrillation by ablating cardiac tissue during surgery.
