Trimedyne recently reported its seventh consecutive quarterly profit.  It manufactures Holmium Lasers and Optical Fibers for fragmenting stones in the kidney, ureter or bladder, and Laser Needles for use in new, outpatient procedures to treat herniated or ruptured discs in the spine.

       “In our disc procedures, the patient’s back pain usually disappears during or shortly after the approximate 20 to 40 minute procedure, and the patient typically walks out with only a band-aid on the puncture, no stitches, and is back to light activities in a few days.  Surgery to treat these conditions generally requires a two-to-seven day hospital stay, a lengthy, recuperation period and a long absence from work,” Loeb said.

       “An estimated 10 million people in the United States suffer from back pain, most often from a damaged or diseased spinal disc,” Loeb added.
