Cardiac Dimensions develops minimally invasive treatments for functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) in patients with heart failure.
The company’s Carillon System is designed to reshape the anatomy and function of the mitral apparatus from the coronary sinus. It is developed to treat the major cause of FMR in patients with MR grades 2+, 3+ and 4+.
Earlier this month, Cardiac Dimensions received approval from Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration for the Carillon System for commercial use in FMR patients with mild to severe mitral regurgitation. The system was granted CE Mark in 2011.
