Ra Medical Systems, Inc. (symbol: RMED) is a U.S.-based medical device company specializing in advanced excimer laser-based vascular and dermatological therapies. The company leverages its innovative laser technology to treat vascular and dermatological diseases, aiming to enhance patients' quality of life by restoring blood flow in arteries and alleviating chronic skin conditions.
The company markets two primary products:
- DABRA Catheter and Laser: Cleared by the U.S. FDA for minimally invasive endovascular treatment of vascular blockages resulting from lower extremity vascular disease, including peripheral artery disease (PAD).
- Pharos Excimer Laser: Designed for treating inflammatory skin conditions such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and leukoderma, and also FDA-cleared.
Ra Medical, through its wholly owned subsidiary Catheter Precision, continues to make strides in the medical device industry with recent advancements and strategic partnerships. The VIVO™ system, a non-invasive 3D imaging technology, is used in pre-procedure planning for ventricular ablations, and has been adopted by numerous hospitals for its effectiveness in identifying the earliest electrical activation of ventricular arrhythmias.
One of the company's recent achievements includes the completion of 100 ventricular ablation procedures at the Heart Hospital of New Mexico at Lovelace Medical Center. This milestone highlights the growing recognition of VIVO's benefits in streamlining complex medical procedures.
Ra Medical Systems is also expanding its international footprint. The company has filed for CE Mark for its LockeT device, a suture retention product intended to assist in hemostasis after percutaneous venous punctures. Expected within the third quarter of 2023, this CE Mark will open new markets in Europe and beyond.
Amidst these developments, Ra Medical is preparing for a corporate name change to Catheter Precision, Inc., effective August 17, 2023, with a new ticker symbol VTAK. This change marks a strategic shift focusing solely on cardiac electrophysiology, away from its previous laser catheter business.
