Abbott has received FDA approval for the Aveir VR Mini, the smallest leadless pacemaker to date, allowing expanded treatment options for patients needing ventricular pacing.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Medtech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You have a new benchmark for miniaturisation in leadless heart devices as Abbott is clearing the regulatory bar with the Aveir VR Mini. Move quickly if your product targets small-device cardiac implants because the FDA is signalling acceptance of smaller, less invasive pacing technology.
