University of Michigan Health C.S. Mott Children's Hospital implanted the first expandable Autus Valve for children during FDA's Continued Access study phase, allowing access while awaiting final approval. The technology enables valve expansion as children grow, potentially reducing lifetime surgeries for congenital heart disease patients.

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

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You have a new window to treat pediatric heart patients with a valve that adapts as they grow. Hospitals not yet involved risk falling behind in offering less invasive, durable options during the FDA approval lag.
