SurgiCount Medical, Inc was purchased by Patient Safety Technologies (OTC:PSTX) in 2005 with the aim of commercially developing the nascent Safety-Sponge™ System into the industry standard for preventing retained sponges. The company received FDA clearance to market the system in March of 2006.
Since then, SurgiCount has shipped
over 22 million sponges and has been used in over 825,000
procedures without a single reported retained event. Our
system is used nationwide in leading private, federal,
and teaching facilities. SurgiCount is the world’s
leading supplier of enhanced surgical sponges and towels.
