HVT Medical is focused on finding a solution for patients who are contraindicated for aortic valve implantation due to anatomical limitations.
HVT Medical is developing a device called the Splitter that can be inserted in a catheterization procedure.
The device will modify the aortic valve to enable transcatheter valve implantation safely.HVT Medical's Splitter device performs cusp splitting before a TAVI procedure to help reduce risk of coronary occlusion.
The device creates an intentional laceration or excision of valve's cusp tissue by applying an advanced catheter equipped with cutting head that mimics an alligator jaw.
