FDA Approves Less Invasive Heart Stent for Infants to Reduce Surgeries
Oct 17, 2024, 12:15 PM
The FDA recently approved a heart stent designed specifically for infants and young children. This device aims to help children born with congenital heart defects avoid a series of open heart surgeries throughout their childhood. Traditionally, children needing heart stents faced multiple open heart operations before reaching middle school. The new stent offers a less invasive treatment option, potentially reducing the number of surgeries required and addressing heart issues with less invasive procedures.
