Company Description
CardiacBooster addresses the pVAD market with a novel device concept. With barely half of cardiogenic shock patients surviving despite support with current percutaneous ventricular assist devices (pVAD), a substantial unmet clinical need remains and time is ripe for innovation.CardiacBooster’s differentiated technology creates a powerful pump within the pump. The device increases stroke volume and cardiac output by actively ejecting blood from the left ventricle. The novel concept allows for a low-profile catheter design while preserving power, overcoming the trade-off existing devices have to make between pump power and size-related access complications.
