LIVINGSTON, N.J., May 21, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Milestone Scientific Inc . (NYSE: MLSS ), a leading developer of computerized drug delivery instruments that provide painless and precise injections, today announced it has signed agreements with three additional independent distributors for its CompuFlo® Epidural System covering territories within the Pacific Northwest, Southeast and additional coverage in the Midwest.  The company also reported on interest generated in the CompuFlo® Epidural System at The Society for Obstetric Anesthesia and Perinatology (SOAP) 50th Annual Meeting that was held in Miami from May 9-13.

Sharon Smith, Executive Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing of Milestone Scientific, commented, “We are encouraged by the growing interest in the CompuFlo® Epidural System, as evidenced by the addition of these three latest independent distributors, which provide us coverage in the Pacific Northwest and Southeast, as well as deeper penetration within the Midwest.  In addition to these distributors, we are in active discussions with many others nationwide. This recent success reflects our new decentralized sales strategy, whereby we are targeting independent distributors with existing physician and hospital relationships within their respective territories and clinical specialties.  We were also pleased with the favorable response the CompuFlo® Epidural System generated at the SOAP meeting. We look forward to following up with the anesthesia providers we met that desire a tool that objectively identifies the epidural space and aides in discriminating between true and false loss of resistance.”
