What is ProPep Surgical®?
Real-time Nerve Monitoring for Laparoscopic & Robotic Prostatectomy Surgery
The ProPep Nerve Monitoring System™ provides surgeons information useful in identifying the location of, and monitoring the integrity of nerves critical to sexual function and urinary continence during laparoscopic and da Vinci® robotic prostatectomy surgery. Why is real-time nerve monitoring important?
Studies have shown the location of critical pelvic nerves varies significantly. Damage to these critical nerves can cause sexual dysfunction and/or urinary incontinence. Nerve identification and monitoring using the ProPep Nerve Monitoring System may help the surgeon reduce inadvertent damage to these nerves and in doing so, potentially reduce the sexual dysfunction and urinary incontinence that are common side effects of this surgical procedure.
