Our Mission
Sleep
The restorative energy required after head, throat, lung surgical and radiation treatment.
The weeks of recovery from head, nose, throat and lung surgery can be the worst times of your life. Radiation treatment is equally devastating. Not only does it feel like you chewed razor blades, or shards of glass, but your throat is on fire and there is no relief. Your "Will" to eat is diminished and depression sets in as you're too exhausted to focus, work, or swallow food.
Now, include with this the endless nights of sitting up and spitting out phlegm. You try to rest, but as soon as you close your eyes that phlegm sides into your lungs and you aspirate, choking on top of everything else. This was me when I was treated for throat cancer a year ago.
Sleep
Delivering Relief to patients who need their rest while recovering from head, throat and lung cancer treatment. Relief to sleep, focus, work, eat and recover from surgical and radiation / chemo therapy.
The National Cancer Institute estimates that about 71,100 people in the United States will receive a diagnosis of some type of head and neck cancer in 2024. In addition, 297,000 patients will undergo palatine tonsillectomies and 30,000 other procedures will be preformed on adults for obstructive sleep apnea. This doesn't include what the American Cancer Society estimates are 96,000 patients who undergo radiation treatment for lung cancer each year.

As an enterprise business analyst in the technology industry, I have spent a lifetime identifying how technology can transform companies and open up new markets.
Based on these numbers (an estimated 494,000) and the harsh recovery process these patients will endure. The oral-phlegm-extraction-system (OPES) was developed.
Sleep
Delivering Relief to patients who need their rest while recovering from head, throat and lung cancer treatment.
The objective is to help the patient sleep while the system automatically, and without manual intervention, extract the phlegm from the mouth and throat alleviating aspiration. The unit is perfectly timed to disperse a mist of liquid particles, like a cloud, into the mouth and throat. It then suctions the entire oral cavity of phlegm while the patient rests. Furthermore, under a doctor's order, medication can be administered to further sooth the mouth and throat of the patient to sleep even better.
Sleep
Delivering Relief in the middle of the night, allowing it to be:
- Hands-Free, to mist your mouth and throat preventing dry mouth, and removing the phlegm while you sleep;
- Positioned properly in the mouth to prevent aspiration;
- Properly timed to come on and off when you need it as you sleep;
- Applying medication, as prescribed by your doctor, to kill bacteria and sooth the throat while you sleep.

Be the means to bring OPES to those who need it and come join us on our campaign. To bring this to market will require client trials, FDA approval, equipment staging and start-up costs. For this purpose we will be engaging a crowdfunding campaign through Indiegogo.
In exchange for sharing this information with your friends, fellow patients and doctors a generous contribution will be donated annually to the Leading 100 Cancer Hospitals (according to US News) across the United States in your honor. Furthermore, this annual donation will be continue for as long as PostOp Therapeutics is in business.
Please join us on Indiegogo (date to be announced) for our campaign. Every donation will be used entirely to bring OPES to those who need it. Any size contribution will help and be remembered.
Thank you,
