PercAssist technology is designed for hemodynamic support and cardiac recovery – with simplicity, performance, and ease of use in mind for the patient and the clinician.
The PercAssist procedure is designed using a minimally invasive technique performed in the catheterization or hybrid lab. Proprietary ECG and implant technology applies ventricular compression synchronized with the patient’s natural heart rhythm. The implant does not reside in the bloodstream, reducing the possibility of anticoagulation therapy and the minimally invasive nature of the procedure is expected to shorten patient recovery time.
Initial use is anticipated in emergent conditions such as cardiogenic shock and severe acute decompensated heart failure. Future use is anticipated in longer-term support of advanced heart failure patients including bridge to transplant or destination therapy.
Caution: The PercAssist technology is under development and is for investigational use only. Not approved by FDA and not available for commercial distribution in the United States or any other market.
