Keep Your Finger on the Pulse: Q1 2022 Recap Newsletter

Posted by Michelle Revell on Jun 1, 2022 10:16:43 AM

This year has been “chalk” full of good vibrations at Shockwave! We launched our most efficient IVL catheter yet, the faster-pulsing Shockwave M5+, and its effects have been helping patients with calcified PAD across the globe ever since. Our data also got deeper, with the Disrupt CAD III one-year data published in JSCAI, demonstrating Coronary IVL’s excellent safety and effectiveness outcomes at 30 days out to one year. We heard from physicians like Dr. B. Clay Sizemore on using Coronary IVL in a no-surgical-backup hospital, and Dr. Alexandra Lansky regarding gender disparities in cardiovascular disease. To top it all off, Fast Company recognized Shockwave as one of the World’s Most Innovative Companies for 2022. Check out all of this and more in the latest PulsePoint Newsletter!
