FIRST OPTIMIZER SYSTEM IMPLANTED IN MICHIGAN
Randy Lieberman, director of cardiac electrophysiology at Harper University Hospital and assistant professor of medicine at Wayne State University School of Medicine, has successfully implanted a new investigational cardiac medical device for the treatment of heart failure -- the first of its kind to be performed in the state of Michigan.
The pacemaker-like device, called the Optimizer System, is a pulse generator designed to deliver electrical impulses to the heart for the treatment of moderate-to-severe heart failure. The device is the focus of a national multicenter clinical trial to investigate its safety and effectiveness. Impulse Dynamics, a specialty medical device company located in New York, manufactures the device.
