Pump-Assist Beating Heart Offers many clinical benefits1-3

Discover Benefits

Looking for improved outcomes? Consider Pump-Assist Beating Heart (PABH) as an option for your coronary patients. PABH includes the use of cardiopulmonary bypass, without arresting the patient’s heart or cross clamping the aorta. Learn more about the many proven benefits of PABH.
