ROSELAND, N.J., Dec. 28, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Milestone Scientific Inc. (NYSE:MLSS), a leading developer of computerized drug delivery instruments, that provide painless and precise injections, today announced the purchase of its CompuFlo® Epidural and CathCheck Verification System disposables from two additional leading hospitals, expanding the Company’s geographic footprint.

Arjan Haverhals, CEO of Milestone Scientific, stated, “These orders from well recognized hospitals illustrate our continued traction in the market. Importantly, both of these hospitals belong to large healthcare systems. One of these new hospitals represents an expansion to an additional location within its existing healthcare system, which is important validation of our technology. The use of our instruments and disposables provides a level of safety and efficiency not currently available using conventional syringes, as well as a significant economic benefit to the institution. We have a growing pipeline of healthcare institutions across the country, and remain committed to our goal of establishing the CompuFlo Epidural instrument as the new standard of care in epidural anesthesia.”

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. Dr. Mark Hochman, Director of Clinical Affairs stated, “The momentum we’re gaining in the marketplace is a direct reflection of the growing clinical evidence supporting routine use of the CompuFlo Epidural and CathCheck Verification System in clinical practice.”    

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. Similarly, the CathCheck Verification System has the potential to transform the monitoring of catheter placement by confirming the presence or absence of a pulsatile waveform which correlates to the correct placement of a catheter. This can be accomplished within two minutes, versus 20 to 40 minutes using conventional methods, thus providing an additional benefit to the use of the CompuFlo-Epidural System.
