The Board of Directors of Milestone Medical Inc. _WAR: MMD, "the Company", "the Issuer"_,
today announced it has commenced commercial sales of CompuFlo disposables for use
in neurostimulation spinal cord stimulator implantation procedures at the University
of Texas Medical Branch _UTMB_ Health Clear Lake Campus Hospital, expanding use of
CompuFlo within the institution beyond the labor and delivery department and training
for residents in epidural needle placement and verification. A spinal cord stimulator
is an implanted device that sends low levels of electricity directly into the spinal
cord to relieve pain.
Approval and adoption of the technology for neurostimulation spinal cord stimulator
implantation follows a successful evaluation process by Dr. Patrick Karas, MD, a full-time
faculty neurosurgeon at UTMB, operating at both the Galveston and Clear Lake campuses.
Dr. Karas completed 10 cases using the CompuFlo Epidural system, in which he reported
100% success and no complications, while decreasing operative time by around 15 to
20 minutes per procedure.
UTMB is an institution of the University of Texas System and agency of the State of
Texas. UTMB is a major academic health sciences center of global influence, with
medical, nursing, health professions and graduate biomedical schools; a world-renowned
research enterprise; and a growing, comprehensive health system with hospitals on
four campuses.
Dr. Karas is a member of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, the Congress
of Neurological Surgeons, Texas Association of Neurosurgeons, and the American Epilepsy
Society.
The Board of Directors of the Company is pleased to announce that UTMB Health Clear
Lake Campus Hospital has expanded the use of the CompuFlo Epidural beyond labor _
delivery, to now include neurostimulation spinal cord stimulator implantation procedures.
In the opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company, the use of the instrument
for this procedure is further evidence of the broad potential of CompuFlo based on
its ability to increase efficiency, safety and predictability, thus improving patient
outcomes and lowering costs, while minimizing the risk of intraoperative cerebral
fluid leakage and trauma to underlying nerve roots, both potential complications of
spinal cord stimulator procedures.
