ARTICLE SUMMARY:
With a new cerebral embolic protection device that completely protects the brain, Transverse Medical is getting ready to serve an expanded and younger population of transcatheter aortic valve replacement patients, where the high rates of perioperative stroke that accompany these procedures are even less tolerable.
