University of Chicago spinoff Flow Medical Inc. is finalizing its design of a multi-function catheter to diagnose and treat venous thromboembolic disease – boosted by a $1 million private investment to commercialize the device.
Irvine Calif.-based Inari Medical Inc. reported results from what it described as the largest prospective study of interventional treatment in high-risk pulmonary embolism (PE), which found a 90% survival improvement in high-risk pulmonary embolism using the company’s Flowtriever System. Data from the FLAME (Flowtriever for Acute Massive Pulmonary Embolism) study in high-risk PE was presented at the 2023 American College of Cardiology (ACC) conference on March 5.
