 PROFILE
ABIOMED, which develops cardiac-assist technology, is no heartless company. Its battery-powered AbioCor is the first artificial heart to be implanted in a patient. Other products include the BVS-5000 bi-ventricular support system, the first FDA-approved temporary external heart; used in some 500 hospitals worldwide, it treats patients with potentially reversible heart failure. The company is acquiring the rights to the Penn State Heart, a product similar to the AbioCor developed by Pennsylvania State University. Research and development contracts make up some 20% of company sales.
