Breakfast symposium and conference activities
to highlight capabilities of vascular robotic technology and
advancements in automation and remote treatment
Corindus Vascular Robotics, Inc. (“Corindus” or the “Company”)
(NYSE American: CVRS), a leading developer of precision vascular
robotics, announced today it will showcase the capabilities of the
CorPath® GRX system at the Transcatheter Cardiovascular
Therapeutics (TCT) 2019 Conference, to be held September 25-29 in
San Francisco, California. CorPath GRX is the only U.S. Food and
Drug Administration (“FDA”) cleared and CE-marked medical device
for robotic-assisted vascular interventions. At Corindus’ booth
1327, attendees will be able to gain hands-on experience with
CorPath GRX in an advanced simulation. In addition, the next set of
automated movements in the technIQ™ Series will be available for
demonstration.*
Corindus will also host an educational breakfast symposium
titled “Transforming Robotics into an Advanced Clinical Tool
Through Automation and Remote Capabilities” on Friday, September
27, from 6:45 to 7:45 a.m. at the Moscone Center, Room 216, Level
2, Moscone South. Corindus’ Chief Medical Officer, J. Aaron
Grantham, M.D., of St. Luke’s Hospital of Kansas City, will chair
the symposium, which will feature presentations from experts in
robotic-assisted coronary intervention. Attendees will also be able
to participate in a Q&A session with the faculty. Symposium
topics and speakers include:
• “Clinical Review” presented by Ehtisham Mahmud, M.D.
• “Robotics in Clinical Practice: Complex PCI” presented by
William Lombardi, M.D.
• “Preparing for a Remote PCI Program Today” presented by Jean
Fajadet, M.D.
• “Progress on Automation & Remote” presented by Tejas
Patel, M.D.
“My peers in the field have an appreciation for emerging
treatment modalities that advance the standard of care, and we are
excited to share the latest developments in robotic-assisted
procedures with them,” Dr. Grantham said. “As more hospitals and
health systems adopt robotic technology, it will be critical for
physicians to see CorPath GRX in action and learn the benefits of
the device for patients and practitioners through hands-on
experience.”
TCT is the world’s largest educational meeting specializing in
interventional cardiovascular medicine. For 30 years, TCT has
showcased the latest advances in current therapies and clinical
research and gathered a range of healthcare professionals with a
special interest in the field of interventional and vascular
medicine. Registration for the breakfast symposium is available at
http://www.corindus.com/tct2019.
“TCT represents the largest educational meeting in
interventional cardiovascular medicine and we are pleased that the
enthusiasm for vascular robotics continues to build,” said Mark
Toland, President and Chief Executive Officer of Corindus. “We look
forward to sharing our significant progress with remote and
automated technology with the interventional community, as we
envision these enhancing the future of patient care,” added
Toland.
