Finding answers to the nation’s opioid epidemic is a complex
problem being fought on several fronts. In a news release, Alan Collier, chief
executive officer of Endonovo Therapeutics Inc. (OTCQB: ENDV), stated that the
company’s SofPulse post-operative opioid alternative medical device delivers
clinically-proven post-surgical pain relief to patients.
“With the public demanding change and options other than
opioids, and with very few alternatives to satisfy those demands, SofPulse is a
natural and safe replacement to opioids and a solution to this health crisis,”
Collier noted (http://ibn.fm/ksEeK).
Federal statistics show that opioids kill more people per
year than car crashes on America’s roadways. An estimated 68,000 Americans died
from a drug overdose stemming from opioid abuse in the United States in 2018,
although that number could rise once final numbers are compiled, according to
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports (http://ibn.fm/Kd4TZ).
The CDC reported that, in 2016, 11.5 million people misused
opioids (http://ibn.fm/NY2Dh),
while the Department of Justice reports that four out of five heroin users
first misused prescription opioids (http://ibn.fm/meham).
Drug overdose deaths involving any opioid rose from 18,515
deaths in 2007 to 47,600 in 2017, with 68 percent of those deaths occurring
among men, per CDC data. In addition, the National Safety Council reports that
impaired driving caused by drugs, including opioids, contributed to some of the
40,000 fatal crashes that occurred in each of the past three years (http://ibn.fm/gqf93).
Endonovo’s SofPulse provides targeted pulsed electromagnetic
field therapy (tPEMF), which uses targeted microcurrents to transmit gentle
pulses to the tissue. Endonovo’s SofPulse is clinically proven to significantly
speed the recovery process and reduce the need for potentially addictive pain
medications, thereby improving patients’ natural recovery experiences (http://ibn.fm/BxHsd).
Endonovo’s Electroceutical Therapy(TM) is cleared by the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the palliative treatment of
post-surgical pain and edema and is CE-marked in the European Economic Area for
the promotion of wound healing and the palliative treatment of post-surgical
pain and edema. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services also has
national coverage determination for the reimbursement of Electroceutical
Therapy for the treatment of chronic wounds.
Dr. Peter Novak, who recently joined Endonovo’s scientific
advisory board, said he believes that the company’s noninvasive Electroceutical
Therapy represents “a fascinating new frontier.” Novak is the director of the
Autonomic Laboratory at the Department of Neurology, Brigham and Women’s
Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts. He is a board-certified neurologist and a board-certified
autonomic specialist.
“Endonovo has assembled a pipeline that approaches
compelling pathways from unique angles,” Novak stated in a news release (http://ibn.fm/RPZRt). “There is
a major need for therapeutics that improve post-operative recuperation, so I am
pleased to join a team that has connected novel science with patient need so
clearly.”
