Project title: A NEW CARDIAC ASYNCHRONY TECHNOLOGY
Company name : ODEM MEDICAL
TECHNOLOGICAL FIELD
Medical Devices
KEY WORDS
Heart failure, CRT,
Medical Devices
PROJECT SUMMARY
Odem Medical is developing a new approach and technology for
synchronizing the contraction of the cardiac chambers. The
products presently under development would simplify and optimize
the treatment for patients suffering from cardiac asynchrony.
Approximately 15% of all Heart Failure (HF) patients suffer from
asynchronous contraction of the cardiac ventricles (typically,
manifested by a delay in the contraction of the left ventricle).
This deforms the normal cardiac contraction, and results in
reduction of cardiac pumping. HF Patients with cardiac asynchrony
suffer from a progressive deterioration in their quality of life.
The conventional/current treatment for cardiac asynchrony is
cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). However, the current CRT
protocols suffer from serious gaps, and up to one-third of the
CRT population do not respond adequately to this course of
treatment.
ENTREPRENEUR
