Stroke Matters
Point-Guard Protected™
Safeguard the Brain, Treat the Heart
TRANSVERSE MEDICAL
Transverse Medical Inc. is a medical device company developing the POINT-GUARD™ Cerebral Embolic Protection device to address the unmet need for Full-Brain protection and eliminate the clinical problem of periprocedural Stroke and Silent Stroke in Structural Heart Procedures, such as Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR).
The POINT-GUARD™ full brain protection solution is designed to minimize or eliminate the risk of stroke by providing maximum coverage and filtering of cerebral embolic debris (particles) during cardiovascular procedures. By reducing the risk of stroke, patient and healthcare costs decrease and are directly impacted, resulting in substantial cost savings to the healthcare system.
MISSION
Our company mission is to reduce and eliminate the risk for procedural stroke during Cardiovascular Procedures and to ensure protection from blood laden debris. By providing maximum coverage and complete cerebral embolic protection, we effectively address the unmet clinical need to safeguard the entire brain from stroke while allowing the physician operators to safely treat their patient's heart.
VISION
Our vision and beliefs are that operative and interventional procedures of the heart should be without risk of stroke or unnecessary complications.
