Cardiac surgery device distributor in Slovakia
Surgical valves are a long game: the choice made in theatre stays with the patient for decades.
We supply both mechanical and tissue valves, so the surgeon chooses by the patient rather than by what happens to be available.
Cardiac surgery also overlaps with structural intervention – transcatheter mitral valve replacement reaches patients who are not candidates for open surgery.
What we supply
Epic™ Max and Epic™ Plus
Surgical tissue valves.
Masters Series™
Mechanical valve for the aortic and mitral position, including valved graft configurations.
EnCap™ pericardial patch
Pericardial patch material.
Tendyne™
Transcatheter mitral valve replacement.
Manufacturers in this field. Abbott and Glycar SA. Product pages on this site are in Slovak, because they are written for the physicians who use the devices – ask us and we will send the portfolio for this field in English.
What market entry looks like. A device reaches a Slovak hospital through categorisation at the Ministry of Health, registration with the State Institute for Drug Control (ŠÚKL) and a public tender. We handle all three, and then stand at the procedure.
