The training was conducted under the guidance of Curonix’s Chief Medical Officer Andrea Trescot, MD, and brings a novel relief option to patients suffering from chronic pain, according to an Oct. 9 press release.
The new device is part of Southern Pain’s ongoing effort to expand its range of pain management options.
About 20 percent of adults experience chronic pain, from arthritis to knee pain. Peripheral nerve stimulation is a drug-free method for relieving chronic pain that places tiny electrodes near peripheral nerves to disrupt pain signals.
The Curonix Freedom device is less invasive than other PNS systems, using wireless radio frequency technology for control and power, similar to modern cell phone charging.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
