The "Suture-Tight" catheter delivers nitinol sutures more easily than current endovascular or surgical options, securing endovascular aortic repair grafts to the aorta at initial implant or in repair procedures. Dr. David H. Deaton, Chief Medical Officer, says, "the Suture-Tight catheter makes the process faster, easier and safer for surgeons and patients. Suture-Tight will become the standard of care." Vesteck expects to bring significant incremental revenue to an aortic repair market projected to be $4.5B by 2028.
VESTECK CEO Joe Rafferty stated, "We are truly honored that a consortium of such distinguished early-stage investors led by New World Angels believe in our plan, our team and our technology. We are committed to proving their trust in us was accurate by helping solve this significant unmet need."
Commenting on the investment, Steve O'Hara, president of New World Angels, said, "We are delighted to support Joe Rafferty and his team at Vesteck as they seek to improve patient outcomes for a number of less invasive surgeries, starting with endovascular aortic repair procedures."
