With European sales and a recent fundraise, Cardiac Dimensions has the fuel it needs to finish the pivotal trial for FDA approval of its minimally invasive Carillon Mitral Contour System for mitral regurgitation. Rick Wypych has been leading the team for more than two decades. We recently discussed their development of the implant and delivery catheter, how the system treats MR, and how they make that nitinol and titanium implant in-house. “We never would have been able to do what we can without nitinol. … The catheter technology coupled with the nitinol metal technology are the two things that really drive the device,” he said. I've got a link to the latest Medical Design & Outsourcing interview in the comments below.
