Thrombosis Reduction

We leverage computational fluid dynamics and frictionless pump innovations to engineer blood pump components that minimize flow stagnation and reduce thrombosis risk in cardiac assist devices.

Advanced frictionless impeller designs reduce blood contact surfaces and minimize shear-induced clot formation.

Computational fluid dynamics simulations optimize component geometries to prevent stagnation and promote uniform flow.

Biocompatible coatings and smooth surface finishes further inhibit thrombogenic sites within pump assemblies.

Durability and Vertical Integration

Through vertical integration and robust electromechanical design, Cirtec delivers durable cardiac assist devices with full production control, rigorous quality assurance, and optimized component reliability.

End-to-end manufacturing oversight ensures consistent quality from electromechanical design through final assembly.

In-house electronics integration and machining capabilities enhance component durability under continuous operational stress.

Comprehensive validation testing and ISO-certified processes guarantee long-term device reliability and regulatory compliance.

Minimally Invasive Deployment

Cirtec’s expertise in miniaturized component integration and advanced anchoring technologies supports less invasive cardiac device implantation with smaller incisions and faster patient recovery.

Advanced fixation systems enable secure device anchoring through minimal access points for streamlined implantation procedures.

Miniaturized pump housings and motors reduce device profile for smaller incisions and patient comfort.

Low-friction coatings and lubricious liners improve catheter delivery and reduce vascular trauma during deployment.

Connectivity & Remote Monitoring

We integrate advanced telemetry and sensor networks for continuous hemodynamic monitoring, predictive maintenance, and secure telehealth connectivity in cardiac assist devices.

Real-time streaming of pump performance data enables early anomaly detection and remote clinician intervention.

Secure cloud-based platforms, such as LATITUDE NXT and CareLink, support daily device management and analytics.

Integrated diagnostic sensors and encrypted wireless links facilitate telehealth workflows and proactive device servicing.
