pfm medical has made a name for itself with numerous technological innovations in interventional cardiac and vascular surgery. Our core competences are in the development and distribution of implants (occluder), catheters and stents.
Our unique solutions are mainly used in paediatric cardiology, especially in the treatment of congenital and structural heart defects.
We work in close partnership with NuMed, the internationally leading manufacturer of balloon catheters and stents for paediatric cardiology. In the field of radiology, we offer a wide range of products, particularly for the treatment of arterial occlusive disease in adults.
Nit-Occlud® PDA
The Nit-Occlud® PDA occluder is designed for the treatment of children with the congenital PDA (persistent ductus arteriosus) heart defect. The system boasts a unique spiral-shaped occlusion device, making it very flexible and adaptable to the individual defect. It has already been successfully implanted in many thousands of patients across the globe.
Nit-Occlud® PFO
The Nit-Occlud® PFO occluder has been developed by pfm medical specifically for the treatment of PFO (patent foramen ovale), the most common congenital heart defect. The implant impresses with its slim design and sparing use of materials.
Nit-Occlud® PDA-R
The Nit-Occlud® PDA-R occluder has been developed for both children and adults to treat particularly pronounced PDA and thus ideally complements the Nit-Occlud® PDA occlusion system. Our wide range of PDA occluders thus allows treating all manners and sizes of this heart defect.
Nit-Occlud® Lé VSD
The unique Nit-Occlud® Lé VSD occluder enables the interventional treatment of the ventricular septal defect (VSD), i.e. a hole in the wall separating the two chambers of the heart. With the introduction of this spiral-coil occlusion system, it is now possible to treat all variations of this very complex heart defect. Prior to the introduction of this occluder, only limited treatment of this defect had been possible.
Thyshak®, NuCLEUS and Z-MED
The balloon catheters by the US manufacturer NuMed are used in the treatment of heart valve defects known as valvuloplasty, or surgical reconstruction of a valve. pfm medical is seen as one of the most renowned suppliers in this field.
EVO® Stent
The stent systems in the EVO® product range are used to treat peripheral stenoses. The systems are flexible and available in a range of sizes. On request, we are also able to produce customised versions for specific requirements. Please get in touch with us!
CP Stent
The CP (Cheatham platinum) stent is an innovative and adaptable stent for the treatment of constrictions in the main artery in the aortic arch, known as aortic isthmus stenoses. What makes the CP stent stand out: the diameter of the stent can be repeatedly adjusted in patients who are still growing.
