CaverMap's Surgical Role

Indicated for surgeons who seek continuous patient outcome improvements with nerve-sparing techniques, CaverMap aids you in accurate nerve location and dissection diagnose within prostatectomy and colorectal procedures. Unlike visual and electronic imaging, CaverMap provides a precisely measured nerve performance and erectile function test for comparative effectiveness feedback toward minimizing complications.  In application, CaverMap offers you the ability to converge on optimal removal margins by identifying nerve pathways and registering your experience. Your patients will be given timely and valuable information as to what outcomes are reasonably expected.

CaverMap's calibrated response on stimulated nerves, gives you the results to have an improved nerve diagnostic standard for better examinations and technique control where nerve bundle variability exists.  Our product is intended to address significant issues in the learning curve concepts by providing you an on-demand and tangible observation to reduce uncertainty risks in assessments with an immediate objective analysis.

In nerve grafting procedures, the CaverMap Surgical Aid is intended to provide you added nerve function confidence.  CaverMap may possibly support an intra-operative nerve graph decision analysis.

CaverMap in robotic assisted surgery offers the potential for on-demand nerve diagnosis in conjunction with a collaborative telemedicine procedure.  Our intention is to work within a surgical quality improvement framework and to reduce operational risks.

Blue Torch's unique patient pay option payment allows you to be rewarded for best effort services to improve the state of the art in standards of care.  We assert that the systemic prevalence of expected complications in nerve sparing procedures have not yet reached medically tolerated ideals.

Surgical financial insurance premiums are rising in crisis.  The CaverMap Surgical Aid gives you a physical examination aimed at rationally reducing risks with appropriate  information.  In setting a higher diagnostic standard, CaverMap's health economics are beneficial to the patient, you and the hospital.

There is an unverified suggestion, that post-resection CaverMap stimulation is an alternative to be therapeutically beneficial in nerve trauma recovery.  A precautionary CaverMap prescription, for nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy, proposes to prudently benefit by avoiding marginal impotency costs.

CaverMap has a small role to play in evidence-based medicine aimed at learning curve enhancement, image guided diagnostic decision making and systemic approaches to clinical governance.  We appreciate your greater participation an assistance.

Intended Use
The Blue Torch Medical Technologies CaverMap Surgical Aid is intended to provide stimulation to the body to locate and identify nerves and to test their excitability. The device is designed as an adjunct to the current open or laparoscopic prostatectomy and open colorectal procedures in which a nerve sparing technique is used. The Surgical Aid is not designed to replace the surgeon’s expertise in mapping out the neurovascular bundles.

CaverMap must be administered under a doctor's prescription to provide medical benefit.  CaverMap is often not eligible for a patient's insurance company reimbursement. An ABN Form is required to receive patient payments.
