Milestone Scientific Commences Sales of CompuFlo® Epidural Disposables to a Leading Medical Center in Southern California
07 July 2022 - 10:30PM
Milestone Scientific Inc.
(NYSE:MLSS), a leading developer of computerized
drug delivery instruments, that provide painless and precise
injections, today reported that, following a successful trial and
evaluation, it has commenced sales of its CompuFlo®
Epidural disposables to a leading medical center in Southern
California, which has been designated as one of the Best Maternity
Care Hospitals by Newsweek. This medical center also belongs to one
of the nation’s largest not-for-profit healthcare systems serving
over 10 million members, with more than 100,000 babies delivered
each year across multiple states.
Arjan Haverhals, CEO of Milestone Scientific commented, “We are
honored to have been approved as a vendor to commence sales of our
CompuFlo Epidural disposables within a leading medical center in
Southern California. The addition of this hospital illustrates our
continued traction in the labor and delivery market across the
country, and further validates the favorable response to our
technology by leading anesthesiologists. The CompuFlo Epidural
instrument provides a measurable benefit by precisely and
accurately identifying the location of the needle in
real-time.”
“In addition to adding new hospitals, as previously announced,
the American Medical Association (AMA) recently issued a new
technology-specific Category III Current Procedural Terminology
(CPT®) code for the CompuFlo Epidural system, which we believe will
only help accelerate the commercial rollout of our instrument,
especially as we expand into new markets such as pain management,”
continued Mr. Haverhals.
The clinical and safety benefits of the CompuFlo Epidural and
CathCheck Verification System are backed by numerous
published clinical studies demonstrating reductions in
epidural punctures and complication rates, and can contribute to
time savings on the part of anesthesiologists. A
recent study has shown that the CompuFlo Epidural
instrument has the potential to significantly reduce costs
associated with morbidity, providing a direct economic benefit to
healthcare institutions. The CathCheck Verification System
technology has the potential to transform the monitoring of
catheter placement following an epidural procedure by confirming
the placement of a catheter within two minutes, versus the 20 to 40
minutes using conventional methods.
