NEW YORK, March 31, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Guidepoint, a leading global research services firm, today announced the launch of the Post-Surgical Pain Management TRACKER, part of the Guidepoint TRACKER suite of data products tracking usage trends in the medical device and therapeutics markets. The Post-Surgical Pain Management TRACKER delivers monthly access to data including treatment volumes, market share, and adoption rates across three major modalities used to manage the pain associated with joint surgery.
The Post-Surgical Pain Management TRACKER will provide length of stay insights, patient pain score trends, and opioid use trends, along with timely and topical supplementary data within major joint replacement and other surgical settings.
Kenneth Wahl, Vice President, Business Development for Guidepoint TRACKER, said: “Our clients are focused on how market share and adoption rates for emerging pain management therapies will unfold in light of published clinical data, potential FDA approvals for new indications, and varied end market preference for the major categories of treatment targeting post-surgical pain.”
Each month, Guidepoint collects data from an anonymous, same-site panel conducting approximately two percent of the major joint replacement procedures in the U.S. The Post-Surgical Pain Management TRACKER will capture data for products manufactured by companies including Pacira Pharmaceuticals and Halyard Health and will deliver monthly treatment volumes across three major categories:
- Local anesthetics including long-acting infiltration, short-acting infiltration, elastomeric pumps, and other catheter-based systems
