World-Renowned Heart Failure Physicians To Feature Innovative Heart Failure Therapies at Technology and Heart Failure Therapeutics, February 1-2, 2022

BioVentrix, Inc.:

WHAT:

Innovative therapeutic approaches for the left ventricle may slow progression or reverse congestive heart failure (CHF).

WHY:

• Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle that adversely affects the left ventricle, known to be the root cause of congestive heart failure
• New, minimally invasive left ventricular (LV) restoration therapies have the potential to slow progression or reverse ischemic and idiopathic heart failure
• Learn about Less Invasive Ventricular Enhancement (LIVE) through BioVentrix Revivent TCtm Transcatheter Ventricular Enhancement
• Learn more about this technology and clinical trial results at THT

THERAPEUTIC TARGETS:

• Ischemic and idiopathic heart failure
• Cardiomyopathy

ABOUT BIOVENTRIX:

BioVentrix, Inc. is a privately held medical device company headquartered in San Ramon, California. The Company's mission is to treat patients with congestive heart failure caused by dilated cardiomyopathy.

ABOUT CARDIOMYOPATHY:

Cardiomyopathy represents a collection of diverse conditions of the heart muscle. These diseases have many causes, and symptoms that affect people of all ages and races. When cardiomyopathy occurs, the normal muscle in the heart can thicken, stiffen, thin out, or fill with substances the body produces that do not belong in the heart. As a result, the heart muscle's ability to pump blood is reduced, which can lead to an irregular heart rhythm, the backup of blood into the lungs or rest of the body, and death. Cardiomyopathy can be acquired?developed because of another disease, condition, or factor?or inherited. The cause is not always known.
