PROFILE |
 |
ATS Medical keeps its focus close to the heart. The company makes mechanical heart valves. Its ATS Open Pivot valve improves on other pyrolytic carbon valves in several measures, including lower noise levels, improved implantability, increased X-ray visibility, improved blood flow, and reduced risk of blood clots. ATS Medical sells to about 25 independent distributors in some 40 countries; it is also building a direct sales force to handle US marketing efforts now that its valve has received FDA approval. The company has a licensing agreement with Sulzer Carbomedics, a division of Sulzer Medica. ATS Medical's founder, Manuel Villafana, also founded St. Jude Medical.
