Last week ICU Medical Technologies obtained the patent for KronoSafe® in the USA. With this milestone, the expansion of protection internationally by choosing strategic commercialization countries continues. This recognition is added to the patents already granted (Spain and Russia) and also, the extension process continues favorable in other countries such as India, China, Canada, Australia and the rest of Europe. USA is an interesting market for a medical device like KronoSafe®, designed to increase the safety and effectiveness of temporary cardiac pacing. In 2022, the turnover of cardiovascular devices in the USA was USD 28.6 billion and with expectations of future growth (CAGR; 7.9%). KronoSafe® not only provides benefits in the field of Temporary Cardiac Stimulation directly, which in the United States represents an annual turnover of €202M (CPT Code 33210-1 / $8,103); but also in patients undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (#TAVR), where favorable clinical results have been confirmed with this device. This market, with an annual turnover in the USA of $3.2B (CPT code 33361-66 / $45,000) will be an interesting Early Adopter. Reducing complications with a high economic impact, reducing costs in hospital stays and avoiding overuse of permanent pacemakers will be an interesting solution for both hospitals and insurers. #cardiology #pacemaker #cardiacstimulation #icu, #medicaldevice

Anteris Technologies has achieved a significant breakthrough in heart valve treatment with the completion of three complex valve-in-valve (ViV) procedures using its innovative DurAVR™ transcatheter #heart valve. These procedures were under Health Canada’s special access program (SAP) which allows healthcare professionals to access unlicensed #medical devices, such as DurAVR, for emergency use when conventional therapies have failed, are unavailable or are unsuitable to treat a patient. The transcatheter ViV replacement is performed by implanting a #transcatheter heart valve within a failing bioprosthetic aortic valve, a less invasive procedure compared with reoperative surgical aortic valve replacement.

* CTO PCI, Well planning, Nice results * 54y old gentleman with history of Diabetes & Angina pectoris for 3 months presented with ACS LVEF: 30% Radial SCA revealed 2VD (LAD&RCA-CTO) Low syntax score whats the best revascularization strategy ? after shared-decision making Successful PCI on LAD was done and thereafter patient undergone medical therapy after 1 month of GDMT patient remained symptomatic Planned for elective RCA-CTO pci using dual-access (J-CTO score: 1) Access: dual-access (Right TRA & TFA) Initial strategy: Antegrade approach Microcatheter: Corsair-proXS GW: Started with Fielder XT, couldnt penetrate proximal cap, switched to Gaia-Next 1 which was entered subintimal at first easaily reentered the true lumen Corsair MC coundnt pass the tight lesion Even 1.0 SapphirePro balloon cound not pass the CTO lesion But BLIMP solved the problem ! (although using side-branch anchoring balloon might be helpful) Predilation was done using 1.25 & long 2.0 NC balloon 2 Overlapping DESs (Xience 2.5 x 48 & Ultimaster 3.5 x 38) were deployed Aggresive postdilation 3.0 for distal portion and 3.5 for proximal segment was carried out Good TIMI flow & result (unfortunately IVUS catheter was not available for procedural assessment) Patient follow-up: Symptomatic free 2 days after the CTO-PCI #interventionalcardiology #angioplasty #cto #asahi #imds

Companies continue to develop next-generation transcatheter valves with features like longer durability, better hemodynamic performance, and improved positioning during implantation. We assess the clinical data behind these improvements to predict future adoption. Another focus is the durability of TAVR valves, which could expand usage in younger patients if long-term results prove favorable. Additionally, valve-in-valve procedures, where a new valve is implanted within a failing TAVR or SAVR valve, are becoming increasingly relevant. Tracking advancements that lower complication rates (e.g., lower pacemaker implantation rates, paravalvular leak prevention) can also give companies a competitive edge. Better clinical outcomes lead to higher adoption by physicians and hospitals. #cardiac #implant #healthcare #medtronic #technology

💞 Field Medical starts FIH study for FieldForce Ablation System The FieldForce Ablation System is said to be the first and only contact force pulsed field ablation (PFA) system for the time-efficient treatment of people with ventricular arrhythmias. The Ventricular Catheter Ablation Study (VCAS) will assess the FieldForce system at Na Homolce Hospital in Prague, Czech Republic. VCAS will recruit up to 60 patients at up to five sites worldwide. The system’s potential will be assessed to address the limitations of existing PFA and radiofrequency (RF) ablation systems. It will be conducted in two parts where the VCAS-1 group concentrates on patients afflicted with ventricular tachycardia (VT). On the other hand, the VCAS-2 group is aimed at those encountering frequent premature ventricular complexes (PVCs). The trial seeks to establish that PFA can safely manage and enhance overall outcomes for patients with complex ventricular arrhythmias. Field Medical CEO Steven Mickelsen said: “Our vision at Field Medical is to transform VT ablation into a widely available, one-hour outpatient procedure with improved safety outcomes. “With the promising early data for our VCAS study, in much the same way that PFA transformed AF, the FieldForce Ablation System is optimised to transform how ventricular arrhythmias are treated, offering hope to millions of patients worldwide. “With the strong investor support, renown physician engagement and the groundbreaking potential of our technology, we are set to redefine the standards of cardiac ablation once again.” Read more online: https://lnkd.in/gKCk7rgK 📰 Follow Medical Device Developments to receive the latest medical device news daily and to subscribe to our weekly newsletter #MedicalDeviceDevelopments #medicaldevices #medicalmanufacturing

Stacie Buck, RHIA, CCS-P, CPCO, CIRCC, CCC, RCC, RCCIR is an Influencer SME Interventional & Diagnostic Radiology Coding Offering Online Education/Coding, Auditing & Customized Education Services for IVR & DX Radiology Providers
It's Q & A Thursday! Question: When are catheterization codes reported separately with code range 37220-37235 for lower extremity revascularization? Answer: Catherization codes are bundled when related to the intervention reported by codes 37220-37235, however, there are several instances for which catheterizations codes will be reported for the same session/same DOS--- 1️⃣ Diagnostic angiography performed at the same time as the intervention requires a higher degree of selectivity than the one used for the lower extremity intervention. Example: Contralateral extremity angiography in conjunction with a revascularization procedure -- Access at the right common femoral, revascularization of right internal iliac, catheterization and imaging of left leg. Note that the catheterization code is assigned when no intervention is performed on the contralateral side. If an intervention was performed on the left common iliac and then the catheter is moved to the popliteal for additional imaging, that catheter work would not be reported separately. 2️⃣ Diagnostic angiography for the revascularization is performed at the same time as revascularization from a separate access. Example: Catheterization of the aorta for an aortogram may be performed via a left groin puncture, yet the revascularization is performed on the right iliac via a right groin puncture. Note that is both punctures are utilized to facilitate the therapeutic intervention, catheterization will not be assigned for the diagnostic imaging. 3️⃣ Another catheterization is performed through the same access for another diagnostic or therapeutic procedure requiring catheterization in a different vascular bed. Example: Performing a renal PTA in conjunction with a revascularization 4️⃣ A separate vessel punctured for an additional access that is not part of the revascularization procedure and another vessel is selectively catheterized for another purpose. 5️⃣ Another procedure is performed on the same date of service at a different session. #qandathursday #radrx #crackingtheIRcode #circc #interventionalradiologycoding #ivrcoding #ircoding
