Orangeburg, New York. August 7, 2017<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Impulse Dynamics announced today the first implant in the Company\u2019s FIX-HF-5CA Continued Access Study. The FIX-HF-5CA study is a multicenter, prospective, single-arm Continued Access evaluation of the company\u2019s Cardiac Contractility Modulation (CCM) device. Impulse Dynamics proprietary CCM technology delivers non-excitatory electric pulses to the cardiac muscle with the potential for improved exercise capacity and quality of life.<\/p>\n

The study allows ongoing access to treatment for up to 250 patients suffering from moderate to severe heart failure, as Impulse Dynamics prepares to submit the PMA application to the FDA for the Optimizer device later this year. The first US implant was performed by Rodrigo Chan MD of the Chan Heart Rhythm Institute in Mesa, Arizona on August 5, 2017.<\/p>\n

As part of the Continued Access study, the protocol includes the \u201cOptimizer SMART\u201d device, which is slightly smaller and more physiologically shaped than previous models. \u201cIncluding the Optimizer SMART in the FIX-HF-5CA study serves patients with heart failure by giving them access to recent improvements in the CCM Technology portfolio\u201d said Dr. Simos Kedikoglou, Impulse Dynamics\u2019 CEO. \u201cWe are confident that the data gained in our continued access study will positively contribute to the body of evidence supporting our therapy and look forward to including these results in the PMA submission\u201d<\/p>\n
