VERIVAS ANNOUNCES THEIR NEW PATENT, THE RAPID VEIN HARVESTER, AN ENTIRELY NEW WAY OF HARVESTING VEINS FOR VASCULAR BYPASS PROCEDURES
STAMFORD, CONNECTICUT – Verivas Solutions Inc. announces its newly patented medical device, the Rapid Vein Harvester (“RVH”). RVH is an entirely new way of harvesting veins for vascular bypass procedures. RVH is unique in its utilization of percutaneous, endovascular, “over the wire” techniques employing specialized guidewires and catheters for vein inversion and excision to allow rapid, minimally invasive vein harvest.
Coronary arterial bypass and lower extremity bypass procedures are the most common life and limb-saving surgical procedures performed worldwide and commonly utilize veins harvested from the patient’s legs. Over than 400,000 such vascular bypass procedures are performed every year in the U.S. alone. Current techniques for harvesting veins for bypass procedures are either endoscopic or open surgical vein excision. Both techniques are time-consuming to learn and perform. RVH has the advantage of being easy to learn and reduces vein harvest time, significantly reducing operative time, anesthesia duration, and associated risks.
Verivas is an incubator of innovative medical ideas and devices in the medical field.
