PROFILE When it comes to healing patients, Arrow International makes its point. The company's cardiac and critical care products are used to diagnose and treat critically ill patients. The company's critical care products (about 80% of sales) consist mostly of disposable catheters used to access the central vascular system, diagnose and monitor patients, and administer fluids, pain-relieving drugs, and blood products. Arrow's cardiac care products are mostly intra-aortic balloon pumps and catheters used to temporarily aid the heart's pumping ability following heart surgery, heart attacks, or balloon angioplasty.
