Our Technology
LeaFix developed a Transcatheter Mitral valve repair solution performed by an augmentation of the anterior leaflet.
Company Development Stage
The company is in the animal trial phase with extremely promising results.
Technology Main Advantages
-
The only transcatheter solution for functional Mitral available.
-
No anatomical modification is being performed like in MitralCiip or Pascal.
-
In case the deployment fails, a transcatheter valve replacement can still be performed without the need to retrieve the implant.
-
Doesn't require the permanent administration of blood diluting agents.
-
Much easier to deploy technically in comparison to the TEER alternatives, allowing more physicians to perform such a procedure.
-
More cost effective than TEER as one device per patient seems to be sufficient.
-
May work on Tricuspid as well as on Mitral valve.

Technology Mode of Operation
•Leaflet augmentation by “hole creation” in the anterior leaflet.
•Leaflet augmentation by leaflet straightening.
