By GlobalDataPhysicians can use the device, which is claimed to be 75 times smaller than the smallest commercial implantable pulse generator, to reach deeper anatomical targets compared to other existing devices.
The Neuspera platform is intended to provide less-invasive and potentially earlier treatment options for physicians and patients.
In June 2022, Neuspera Medical unveiled plans to start the second phase of its SANS-UUI pivotal clinical trial of the Nuvella system.
The study is designed to evaluate the Nuvella system’s safety and efficacy to treat overactive bladder in patients with symptoms of urinary urgency incontinence.
Formerly known as Vivonda Medical, Neuspera is engaged in the development of implantable medical devices for patients with chronic illnesses.
