Concentric Medical Company Description
Concentric Medical helps to save the center of consciousness -- the brain -- by getting the blood flowing. The company specializes in developing medical devices to remove blood clots causing strokes in patients. By restoring blood flow, its FDA-approved Merci Retrieval System, which has treated more than 6,000 patients, minimizes or even reverses injury to the brain. The company markets its devices to hospitals through its direct sales force in the US and Canada, as well as distributors abroad. The Merci Retrieval System, consisting of three products primarily used by neuroradiologists and other specialists, accesses the arterial system in the groin and is navigated to the blood vessels in the brain.
