The PUMA System™ by CoapTech represents a transformative leap in medical device technology, offering a groundbreaking approach to gastrostomy procedures. CoapTech is setting new standards in medical innovation with its patented PUMA platform. This platform serves as the basis for a series of medical devices aimed at revolutionizing global healthcare.
The PUMA System™, devised by Dr. Steven Trepello, enables the use of point-of-care ultrasound for Percutaneous Ultrasound Gastrostomy (PUG) in hollow organs. The PUMA-G device, a procedural kit within this system, simplifies the traditionally complex process of inserting gastrostomy tubes. Unlike conventional methods that often require expensive equipment and are fraught with high complication rates, the PUMA-G System™ is the first FDA-cleared ultrasound-based system for feeding tube placement.
This innovative system empowers ICU, ED, and LTAC staff to independently establish enteral access for patients, reducing the need for specialist consultations and significantly enhancing patient safety. By enabling gastrostomy tube placements to be performed in point-of-care settings rather than specialized suites, CoapTech effectively eliminates bottlenecks in patient care, streamlining hospital workflows.
As the global population ages and the prevalence of chronic diseases rises, there is an increasing demand for medical procedures that are simple, efficient, and easily performed. The PUMA System™ meets these needs by providing a safer and more cost-effective solution.
Through its collaboration with Jameel Health, the PUMA System™ by CoapTech is poised to become a standard in medical care across the Global South, embodying a shared commitment to innovative, accessible, and high-quality healthcare solutions.
