Emboline, Inc. Files Patent Infringement Suit Against AorticLab s.r.l. Regarding Embolic Protection Medical Device
The Emboliner is the first device designed to provide complete brain and body protection from ischemic events such as stroke caused by embolic debris released into the bloodstream during transcatheter heart procedures. While transcatheter valve technology and techniques have continued to be refined over the past two decades since the introduction of TAVR, suffering a major debilitating stroke remains a real and persistent threat, and is often cited by patients as being feared more than death.
Emboline's continued innovation depends upon its ability to protect its intellectual property and resulting devices globally. The company continues to expand its patent portfolio as it innovates and has recently secured additional patents related to embolic protection that may be applied for various interventional indications to address current and emerging needs. Emboline is currently conducting the Protect the Head to Head IDE trial (NCT05684146), which is a prospective, randomized, open label, multicenter, 2-arm study to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of the Emboliner Embolic Protection Catheter compared to a control device (Sentinel CPS) for patients undergoing TAVR. Enrollment began in May 2023 and is expected to be completed early 2025.
Emboline, Inc., is a privately held medical technology company based in Santa Cruz, CA that has developed the Emboliner Embolic Protection Catheter, the first embolic protection device to provide full brain and body embolic protection by capturing and removing all debris from transcatheter procedures that would otherwise travel to the brain, kidneys and other critical organs, and reducing the incidence of stroke, cerebral ischemia, cognitive decline and other adverse outcomes associated with procedure-related emboli. Emboline's technologies are derived from intellectual property invented by Amir Belson , MD. More information is available at www.emboline.com .
The Emboliner is not commercially available and is intended for investigational use only. Emboliner is a registered trademark of Emboline, Inc.
