We’re Standing Tall against the impact of CLI

On a mission to change the stats—and the status—of CLI amputations

Micro Medical Solutions was formed to do exactly what our name implies—provide solutions to some of the most pressing unmet needs in microvascular intervention.

Our purpose is to give physicians the minimally invasive tools and technology they need to fight the impact of CLI, to significantly reduce the rate of amputations, to improve clinical outcomes and patient quality of life, and to minimize the financial and human costs associated with the treatment of PAD and CLI.

Goals

The goal of better BTK intervention

Micro Medical Solutions has set ambitious goals:

  • We are committed to reduce the number of preventable amputations, thereby reducing the significant morbidity, mortality, and burden of CLI amputations.
  • We’re not just asking important questions in BTK intervention—we’re working on the solutions right now.

Could CLI cases have a different outcome with improved treatment options?

Are we doing everything we can to prevent the cascade that leads to amputations?

How can we look at the problem differently and develop better treatment options?

What if BTK intervention could actually start BTK?

We are dedicating more focus on finding specific solutions for better access to long lesions and CTOs in the peripheral arteries. Developing an innovative pedal access platform with an industry-leading small guide is just one way we are working on the solutions.
