Cervilenz Inc. to Present at OneMedForum SF 2012

Cleveland (I-Newswire) January 11, 2012 - Cervilenz Inc. has been selected to present at OneMedForum SF 2012. Dean Koch, President and CEO of Cervilenz Inc., will be presenting the company's background, progress and future plans on Tuesday, January 10th at 2:50 pm at the Sir Francis Drake Hotel in San Francisco, California. OneMedForum is a prestigious conference for emerging healthcare companies.

The CerviLenz® device is an innovative medical device that measures vaginal cervical length to help identify pregnant women at high risk for preterm birth. With immediate results, the CerviLenz device gives health care providers a reliable cervical length measurement in any healthcare setting to influence patient management and treatment.

Hundreds of studies have demonstrated a strong relationship between a prematurely short cervix and the risk of preterm birth: the shorter the cervix, the higher the risk. Convincing evidence was also published recently showing that vaginal progesterone treatment for women with a short cervix mid-pregnancy cuts the risk of preterm birth nearly in half and also improves neonatal outcomes. Existing technology cannot meet this rapidly growing need for multiple cervical length measurements for all pregnant women to ensure high risk patients receive treatment. CerviLenz is here to help.

“We are proud to be presenting at OneMedForum and look forward to sharing our corporate story with others in the healthcare venture industry,” said Mr. Koch. “As we continue to introduce the CerviLenz device to the obstetrics community, the response is overwhelmingly positive. And, we’re now at an exciting turning point, ready for commercial launch into a global market.”

Preterm birth is a worldwide public health epidemic and the leading cause of infant death. Nearly 13 million babies are born prematurely every year. In the United States, preterm birth affects 12% of pregnancies and its annual economic toll is $26.2 billion in health care and related costs.
