Milestone Scientific's patented CompuFlo®system
and DPS
Dynamic Pressure Sensing® technology are
revolutionary technologies that are relevant for the entire
category of subcutaneous drug delivery injections and fluid
aspiration – enabling healthcare practitioners to achieve
multiple unique benefits that cannot currently be accomplished
with the 150 year-old manual syringe.
The negative side effects from the
use of the manual hypodermic syringe are well documented
in the medical and dental literature, and include tissue
damage, transient or permanent paralysis, subjective pain
response, post-operative complications
and the risk of medical emergencies, which have the potential
to result in a patient fatality. Patient pain and tissue
damage are a direct physical result of the inability to accurately
control those variables of the manual syringe. The
operator’s inability to locate and maintain need placement
in the target site during the administration of a drug has
numerous consequences.
In contrast, the technical advantages of the CompuFlo system
with DPS Dynamic Pressure Sensing technology
are numerous and dramatic. They include
precise controlling and monitoring of all critical
variables during drug delivery, including:
a true “painless” experience for all injections
eliminates disruptive injection behavior
site specific targeting
controlled needle exit-pressure
precise flow rate
and drug volumes
patient treatment documentation
superior ergonomics
elimination of needle deflection
advanced tactile
needle control
precision fluid metering
The use of our technology also empowers
the clinician to receive real-time continuous feedback
as to the local tissue conditions during the injection
process. This real-time
feedback information enables the accurate differentiation
and identification of specific tissues types and anatomical
locations, making subcutaneous drug delivery safer, easier
and more effective, thereby fundamentally transforming an
art into a science.
Recognized as a world leader in advanced,
computer-controlled, drug delivery injection technologies,
Milestone has spent over a decade developing and perfecting
our portfolio of technologies that can be applied to a wide
array of subcutaneous injections routinely used in the practice
of Medicine and Dentistry.
