Pi-Cardia
Pi-Cardia is a global leader in the development of non-implant catheter-based solutions for treating heart valve calcification. Pi-Cardia’s Leaflex™ catheter performs mechanical scoring of valve calcification, restoring leaflets’ mobility and improving valve hemodynamics. The Leaflex™ catheter is designed to be a cost-effective, durable standalone treatment. It can be used for patients who are not planning to undergo a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and it can be a means to defer TAVR in patients who may be too young for the procedure. It can also be a preparatory step for improving the outcome of TAVR in heavily-calcified and bicuspid aortic valves.
