Jude Medical in 1997 as Vice President, Systems Development as part of the company’s acquisition of Ventritex, Inc., a startup implantable defibrillator company where he had worked since 1987. He went on to become Senior Vice President, Clinical/Regulatory Affairs for the St. ...
Longer-term follow up results from the MODERATO II study presented at the American College of Cardiology conference in May 2021, but not included in JAHA publication, showed that BackBeat CNT reduced oSBP in treated ISH patients by an average of 16.4 mmHg after 18 months of treatment. 1BIS Research, 2017, Global Pacemaker and Implantable Cardioverter ...
” VT and ventricular fibrillation are important causes of sudden cardiac death, accounting for as many as 450,000 annual deaths in the US alone. Implantable cardiac defibrillators reduce the incidence of death in patients with arrhythmias, but are not curative, and can contribute to reduced quality of life in patients with recurring episodes. ...
For the present paper, the Surfacer System was utilized to gain central venous access which facilitated placement of three cardiac leads prior to the placement of an implantable CRT defibrillator in a patient with bilateral occluded brachiocephalic veins and an occluded superior vena cava. ...
Bardy has been a cardiac electrophysiologist since 1983 with research interests in cardiac defibrillator technology, cardiac arrest, ablation, heart failure and atrial fibrillation from both a public health and a technological perspective. ...
After neurosurgery, Endomedix plans to target hemostasis indications for cardiac pacemaker and implanted defibrillator procedures. As an example of the potential scope of the technology, Endomedix has recently entered into a Cooperative Research And Development Agreement (CRADA) with the US Army using PLEXimine to develop a treatment for Ocular Projectile ...
Today, most people with VT are treated with implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs), which monitor the heart rhythm and deliver a strong shock to the heart muscle to correct irregular pacing. ...

CHICAGO, May 12, 2017 - A new study examines the effectiveness of the Implantable Subcutaneous String Defibrillator (ISSD™), a flexible, string-shaped and first-ever rechargeable implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). ...
“We have a unique approach to adding proven antimicrobial capabilities to new or existing medical devices and implants, one that does not require external power sources, does not use drugs or other pharmaceutical agents and is durable enough to withstand the abrasive forces of screwing into bone. With these latest allowances, our IP portfolio has expanded to protect the use ...
This uniquely allows us to protect the broad range of our antimicrobial devices from orthopedic screws, hip and knee prostheses and cardiac implantable defibrillators and pacemakers to venous access indwelling catheters, sutures, surgical mesh and even surgical ...
