Checkpoint Surgical has earned the FDA’s breakthrough designation for its brief electrostimulation therapy system (BEST), a device designed to treat nerve injuries.
The device is intended to be used in combination with surgical intervention following nerve injury to speed up patient recovery.
BEST uses low-level electrical currents to stimulate a patient’s peripheral nerves and encourage nerve regeneration.
