/PRNewswire/ -- With nearly 1.5 million Americans suffering from rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a chronic, progressive inflammatory condition, Dignity Health - St. John's Regional Medical Center (SJRMC) proudly announced it has introduced a groundbreaking, FDA-approved treatment known as the Neuroimmune Modulation - the first of its kind across all of California..

/PRNewswire/ -- 在美国近150万人患有类风湿性关节炎（RA）这种慢性进行性炎症的情况下，尊严健康 - 圣约翰地区医疗中心（SJRMC）自豪地宣布推出了一项开创性的、经FDA批准的治疗，称为神经免疫调节疗法，这在全加州尚属首例。

'This milestone marks a significant advancement in treating rheumatoid arthritis in adults and highlights another example of whole-person care that St. John's provides to the Ventura community,' shares Doug Kleam, Hospital President.

“这一里程碑标志着在治疗成人 rheumatoid arthritis 方面取得了重要的进展，也彰显了 St. John's 为文图拉社区提供的另一种 whole-person care 的例子，”医院总裁 Doug Kleam 表示。

Dr. Akinwunmi Oni-Orisan and the surgical team successfully performed the first procedure across California this week at SJRMC to treat this debilitating autoimmune disease.

本周，阿金乌尼米·奥尼-奥里桑博士和外科团队在圣若泽地区医疗中心成功完成了加州首例治疗这种衰竭性自身免疫疾病的手术。

'The implementation of neuroimmune modulation is an exciting treatment approach to chronic autoimmune conditions and reflects St. John's commitment to being at the forefront of advanced surgical technologies that better serve our communities,' says Dr. Oni-Orisan, neurosurgeon at St. John's.

“神经免疫调节的实施是一种令人兴奋的治疗慢性自身免疫性疾病的途径，反映了圣约翰致力于在先进外科技术的前沿，更好地服务我们的社区，”圣约翰医院的神经外科医生奥尼-奥里桑博士说道。

This life-changing device is designed to deliver targeted stimulation to the left vagus nerve to activate the neural pathways that help regulate immune system activity. It is the only FDA-approved neuroimmune modulation device for adults living with moderately-to-severely active RA who are not adequately managed by – or cannot tolerate – existing advanced RA therapies, such as biological and targeted synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs).

这款改变生活的设备旨在对左侧迷走神经进行靶向刺激，以激活有助于调节免疫系统活动的神经通路。它是唯一获得FDA批准的神经免疫调节设备，适用于生活中的中度至重度活动性类风湿关节炎（RA）成年患者，这些患者通过现有先进的RA疗法（如生物和靶向合成的改善病情抗风湿药物（DMARDs））无法得到充分控制或不能耐受。

'I'm excited that we can offer our community pioneering technology with unparalleled safety,' says Dr. Gita Fatemi, rheumatologist at St. John's. 'This approach can lead to significantly improved outcomes for one of the most life-altering autoimmune disorders - rheumatoid arthritis.'

“我们能够为社区提供具有无与伦比安全性的开创性技术，我感到非常兴奋，”圣约翰医院的风湿病学家吉塔·法特米博士说。“这种方法可以显著改善一种最具生活影响的自身免疫性疾病——类风湿性关节炎的结果。”

'We are proud to partner with St. John's to bring neuroimmune modulation therapy to patients in California,' said Murthy Simhambhatla, CEO of SetPoint Medical, the developers of the novel neuroimmune modulation device. 'As a Southern California–based company, this collaboration represents an important step in expanding access to a new therapeutic approach that targets the neural pathways controlling inflammation.

“我们很荣幸能与圣约翰合作，将神经免疫调节疗法带给加州的患者，”开发这种新型神经免疫调节装置的SetPoint Medical公司首席执行官穆尔蒂·辛哈巴特拉表示。“作为一家总部位于南加州的公司，此次合作代表了扩大针对控制炎症的神经通路的新治疗方法的重要一步。”

Working with forward-thinking health systems like St. John's helps accelerate our mission to transform the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and bring meaningful innovation to patients and physicians.'.
