Artio Medical’s Amplifi Vein Dilation System Demonstrates Encouraging Results

Artio Medical, Inc., a medical device company developing innovative products for the peripheral vascular, neurovascular, and structural heart markets, today announced that full results from its first-in-human (FIH) clinical study of the Amplifi™ Vein Dilation System were presented at the 2021 VEITH Symposium by Surendra Shenoy, MD-PhD, an Associate Professor of Surgery at the Washington University School of Medicine at Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis, Missouri. 

"Data from the first five patients treated with the Amplifi System demonstrated more than a doubling of forearm and upper arm cephalic vein diameters following a mean treatment period of 8.6 days. We were able to successfully create an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) using treated veins in all patients and observed rapid and robust AVF maturation," commented Dr. Shenoy. "This data is very encouraging and I believe this technology has the potential to offer a much-needed solution for increasing AVF suitability and reducing maturation failure."
