Cardiac Power is a non-blood-contacting left ventricular assist device for the treatment of congestive heart failure
CardioKinetix develops a percutaneous treatment for patients with left ventricular dilation after an anterior myocardial infarction (MI). The implantable device, called the PARACHUTE is a partitioning membrane deployed within the compromised ventricle. The PARACHUTE partitions the damaged muscle, isolating the non-functional muscle segment from the functional segment, and decreases the overall volume. Options for patients whose ventricle has enlarged are limited, with most on medical therapy and/or a cardiac resynchronization device that only benefits heart failure patients with a specific EKG pattern.
