  • While we're not introducing new capital to our ICP monitors, we're looking at catheter systems to make it easier for the surgeon to insert them in a tunnelable fashion as well as in a bolted fashion so that it allows more utility for the same piece of capital purchase that they have by providing a single use catheter per patient that allows them to use one piece of capital, multiple catheters to achieve what they're trying to achieve rather than buying a second piece of capital equipment.
