Thoratec Reports Second Quarter Revenue Increase of 17 Percent
Date:8/3/2011
T)," said Gary F. Burbach, president and chief executive officer.
"We were particularly pleased with HeartMate II unit growth of 21 percent in the U.S. and 20 percent internationally, demonstrating healthy underlying market trends and HeartMate II's strong competitive position.
