New Heart Failure Device Study
Illinois' largest center for heart care, Advocate Christ Medical Center, is testing a new device that's supposed to increase the blood flow of the aorta and ease symptoms of heart failure.
Created by Orqis Medical Corporation, the device is called the Cancion CRS (Cardiac Recovery System) pump. Advocate Christ is performing the "MOMENTUM Clinical Trial" to study its effectiveness in heart patients with severe cases. If it works, we may soon be seeing the device's inclusion in hospitals across the country.
