Onward Medical NV reported clinical outcomes for the first 10 patients given therapy to regulate blood pressure using its implantable ARC technology. This pulse generator produced an immediate improvement in blood pressure regulation in all study participants.
Onward Medical NV reported initial patient enrollment in its Hemon early feasibility study and first-in-human trial of its ARC implantable pulse generator. The study will examine stabilization of hemodynamic function in patients with a spinal cord injury. It is taking place at Lausanne University Hospital (CHUV). “Implanting into a human for the first time is an important step forward for our neurostimulation technology, designed to help refine and implement epidural stimulation therapy in patients with spinal cord injury,” Dave Marver, CEO of Onward, told BioWorld.
