QuantumCor is a medical device company
focused on the development of minimally invasive therapeutic
options for the effective treatment of mitral valve
regurgitation.
Today patients suffering from mitral valve
regurgitation are managed with life style modification and drug
therapies until their disease has progressed to the point
where it is critical. At that point today the only method
to repair a diseased mitral valve requires extensive open heart
surgery subjecting the patient to high risk surgical procedure
and a lengthy recovery time.
We believe minimally invasive
endovascular (catheter) devices and techniques will allow
physicians to treat patients much earlier in their disease and
to move the procedure to the cardiac cath lab where the
procedure can be done in an outpatient of limited stay basis.
Mission
To
revolutionize mitral valve repair
and the treatment of mitral regurgitation in the same way that
angioplasty and stents revolutionized coronary artery bypass
surgery and the treatment of coronary artery disease.
