“This is a very gratifying event for Checkpoint Surgical,” said President and CEO Len Cosentino. “We’ve always known from the reports of the surgeons who use our nerve stimulation technology that it provides safe, reliable and repeatable information for nerve assessment and protection during surgery. But the validation provided in this study is extremely meaningful to our clinical value proposition.” Cosentino continued: “Our objective is to give surgeons an easier, more cost-effective alternative to monitor nerves intraoperatively that is also safe and clinically effective. This study adds to our confidence that we are meeting our objective.”
