About HeartWare
HeartWare develops and manufactures miniaturized implantable heart
pumps, or Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVADs), designed to treat
patients suffering from advanced heart failure. The Company is developing
the industry's smallest and least invasive pumps, which it believes will be
the key to unlocking the potential of a large and underserved market. The
HeartWare(R) LVAD is a full-output pump designed to be implanted in the
chest, avoiding the abdominal surgery generally required to implant
competing devices. The device is currently the subject of an international
clinical trial involving five investigational centres in Europe and
Australia. A clinical trial in the U.S. is expected to begin in the first
half of 2008.
