Our goal is to help reduce hernia mesh related complications by improving design in a gender specific manner.

Hopefully one day we can say no to mesh related chronic pain, neuralgia, testicular pain and chronic pelvic pain, in males and specifically in females.

Got some exciting AI products on the horizon. Watch this area for the launch of our upcoming HerniaScore.

Using Machine Learning advanced mathematical algorithms, you can now predict the chances your groin or pelvic pain may be due to an inguinal hernia.

Www.HerniaScore.com coming soon.

Here with Dr Reid Dale, one of the brains behin me our project.

We are super excited about a new proprietary scoring system we validated that predicts whether an inguinal hernia repair will benefit from hernia repair to treat their groin pain.

This scoring system can:
* help reduce unnecessary inguinal hernia repair in patients with groin pain for other reasons
* help identify patients with enigmatic pelvic pain which may be due to inguinal hernia. This is particularly important among women diagnosed with chronic pelvic pain.

Our Research Associate, Dr Desmond Huynh, did an excellent job presenting this at Western Surgical Association annual meeting today.

Did you know?

The first ever Gender specific inguinal mesh design was patented by us in 2016!

We have so much more to do to help improve inguinal hernia repair outcomes for men and women. Our patented and pending designs are all focused to reduce the risk of mesh-related complications including nerve pain, testicular pain, and chronic pain.
