Value Proposition
Expanding the Market

Currently, atherectomy procedures are only performed in hospitals in which cardiac surgical support is available in the event of life-threatening complications.
With significantly reduced perforation and dissection rates, the Plaqate Atherectomy Systems is designed to reach a wider market by enabling lower level hospitals to safely perform atherectomies.
Improved Access to Care

The expansion of treatment to lower level hospitals increases patient access to effective treatment.
