Medtronic adds innovative Penditure™ Left Atrial Appendage Exclusion System to Cardiac Surgery portfolio
The Penditure™ Left Atrial Appendage Medtronic plc, a global leader in healthcare technology, today announced the launch of its Penditure™ Left Atrial Appendage (LAA) Exclusion System in the United States. The Penditure LAA Exclusion System is an innovative, implantable clip that comes pre-loaded on a single-use delivery system for use in left atrial appendage management (LAAM) during concomitant cardiac surgery procedures. The Penditure clip is curved to better match the atrial anatomy1 and was designed without fabric for atraumatic closure and reduced inflammation.2 The Penditure device is the only LAA clip that can be recaptured, repositioned, and redeployed after deployment during a procedure, putting greater control in the hands of surgeons.3
Medtronic completed the acquisition of the Penditure device technology from Syntheon LLC in August 2023. The acquisition expands the company’s Cardiac Surgery product portfolio to include left atrial appendage management. The first cases were performed by Drs. Gorav Ailawadi and Basel Ramlawi at the University of Michigan Frankel Cardiovascular Center and Lankenau Heart Institute, part of Main Line Health, respectively.
