Microtech to unveil implantable microsensor technology at 34th Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) annual meeting
TEL AVIV, Israel, Sept. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Microtech, a wholly owned subsidiary of Medinol, Inc., a leader in global 
MedTech research and development, announced that its implantable microsensor 
platform will be presented at the 34th Transcatheter Cardiovascular 
Therapeutics (TCT), the annual scientific symposium of the Cardiovascular 
Research Foundation on Friday, September 16.  A prestigious selection, this 
session will highlight a limited number of cutting edge technologies important 
to advancing cardiovascular treatment.  Microtech is honored to be selected as 
one of the organizations participating.

Microtech implantable microsensor platform is the culmination of decades of 
development in a new class of sensor technology that can be used not only as a 
stand-alone device but can also be integrated onto any existing device turning 
it from treatment only to smart, data gathering devices able to perform 
multiple functions at once.

The session entitled, "Microsensors: Turning Implantable Devices Into Real-Time 
Physiologic Monitors (Microtech)," will feature a procedure showing a device 
incorporating Microtech implantable microsensor platform implanted in the left 
atrium for the ongoing assessment of Heart Failure. In addition to the case 
presentation, Dr. Yoram Richter Ph.D., CEO of Medinol Ltd, will be presenting 
the technology platform followed by a Q/A with the invited panel and a 
roundtable discussion.

"Adding sensors to existing medical devices gives physicians the ability to 
treat patients based on quantifiable physiological parameters instead of 
symptoms and is a critical step to growing access to equitable healthcare 
across the global community. Using a compact home unit, a patient with 
Microtech implantable microsensor platform can deliver immediate and highly 
accurate pressure readings directly to their physician turning geographical 
distance or mobility challenges into a non-issue," says Dr. Yoram Richter.  
"Since Microtech implantable microsensor platform can be used for widely 
varying scenarios including patients suffering from Heart Failure, Glaucoma, 
Hydrocephalous, Portal Hypertension, AAA Endoleaks and many more, the 
integration, adoption and implantation of this innovative platform will provide 
wider healthcare access and fewer office/hospital visits. From the standpoint 
of treating clinicians and device manufacturers, sensor enabled devices will go 
beyond acute anatomical fixes, extending treatment to lifetime patient care."
 
About Medinol

At Medinol, we are aggressively changing paradigms in how disease states are 
diagnosed and treated.  Whether designing cutting edge devices for stenting 
multiple areas of the body, dramatically reducing complications in Structural 
Heart procedures or providing real time insights into the physiological metrics 
of the human body through implantable sensors, we boldly reassess current 
technology and procedures and look years into the future to pioneer new devices 
to broaden the reach of physicians both physically and geographically.  Working 
with our physician and industry partners, Medinol is creating the future today.
