Product Description
As the sensationalized negative media coverage has dissipated, the use of synthetic slings has begun to stabilize. Although most of the media scrutiny of these devices occurred in the United States, these events adversely affected the Japanese market as well, although not as drastically. Continued decreases in ASP will be offset by the growth in unit sales as procedure numbers continue to recover.
The mid-urethral sling procedure is the most common surgery for incontinence and is a minimallyinvasive, outpatient procedure. Although the mid-urethral procedure has been successful for many women, many national health authorities such as the FDA have issued warnings about the complications and side-effects which have been documented with surgical mesh procedures.
