Is Cardica also developing additional devices with Cook Medical to facilitate vascular closure and other surgical procedures? Do patients with PFO may be at increased risk for several serious medical conditions, including stroke and systemic embolism, because blood clots can pass directly through the hole and into the main circulation? Does the Cardica closure device […]

Is the PAS-Port system associated with significant patient benefits compared with hand-sewn anastomoses? Will the device be able to replace hand-sewn sutures with automated proximal and distal anastomoses systems? Will the technique improve patient outcomes by shortening surgery times and hospital stays and reducing complications associated with aortic clamping?
