🙌 Congratulations to the incredible team at LimFlow SA, a Sofinnova portfolio company, on its #FDAapproval - a monumental achievement for the company and for patients who would otherwise face amputation. This is a significant milestone in the fight against chronic limb-threatening ischemia #CTLI, a severe form of peripheral artery disease that affects millions, resulting in a staggering number of major limb amputations each year. The LimFlow System represents a beacon of hope for those facing no other suitable treatment options, offering the potential to save limbs and drastically improve the quality of life for CLTI patients. ➡️ Check out a recent article in CNN about how LimFlow is offering hope to ‘no option’ patients facing amputation because of severe circulation problems: https://hubs.ly/Q021YdSb0 🚀The success of the LimFlow System is a testament to the unwavering dedication and innovative spirit of the team behind it. It's remarkable to see how this groundbreaking technology has the power to transform lives, reducing pain, promoting wound healing, and preventing major amputations. “At LimFlow, our vision is to achieve great outcomes for patients suffering from CLTI. We developed a novel way to make a vein function as an artery with the goal of saving limbs, and by doing that, saving patients’ lives,” said LimFlow CEO Dan Rose. “We thank the FDA for their collaborative review process and we look forward to introducing and expanding use of the LimFlow System in the U.S.” We are honored to be part of this journey, supporting the LimFlow team's vision; we look forward to witnessing the positive impact in the United States and beyond. ➡️ Read the full press release here: https://hubs.ly/Q021Ykkr0 Kinam Hong, M.D., MBA, CFA Dan Rose #HealthcareInnovation #FDAApproval #CLTI #SavingLives
